Atypical Accessory

Thought I'd throw this out here and see how many come to chew on it. There are a number of AFB's (referred to as "longbows" here in the US) being used for hunting and field. One of the most common accessories is the bow quiver, which attaches arrows directly to the bow. I've researched a bit, and found several that can be mounted to an English longbow without damaging it, but I'm wondering if anyone has tried this in your neck of the woods. I'd like to know if this might change the characteristics too radically, either overbalancing the bow or effecting performance. No doubt this is blasphemy to some, so you can't say I'm not willing to experiment. Anybody game to play?

Do you want me to come over there and get my bow back .(BLASPHEMY). In GB NOTHING ALLOWED ON THE BOW.Plus a longbow bends in an arc where are you going to attach it without interupting that arc. With flatbows only the limbs bend you can attach the thing to the riser section one last word ***###**""#~~~~~#####*****

Glad I'm over here, we'd probably end up in hospital every time we bought each other a pint. Good excuse for making nice afterwards, though.

Uh oh, forgot about that old saying about "mad dogs and Englishmen". Would a bottle of Crown Royal and a grand barbecue smooth things over when you get here?
fred

That sounds a good idea but I will bring the scotch or irish if I can get my hands on the real thing

See ya later, bro. Sounds like we should an Archers Arms franchise over here; place could use a barbie and pub, all we got is country/western or Mexican. Not even worth going out unless you want to drive a hundred miles one-way. Hey Bernie, got any good recommendations to start an Irish pub?
Berniethebolt

yep even got a name for it how about
*BERNIE'S PATIO BAR*

You bring the food for the BBQ and i'll have the drink and if it might get too cold for a BBQ i'll make Irish Stew lol
