IT'S FINISHED! Joerg Sprave from "The Slingshot Channel" invented the amazing "Instant Legolas" magazine system for longbows; he challenged me to make a Medieval version.........

I made the device and in turn challenged Joe Gibbs from "Hillbilly Bows" to shoot it.......

This film shows the device, how it is used, our thoughts on it and what 5 of them can do in the hands of a powerful and experienced archer.

If you would like to support my work on this channel you can always buy my fantastic reproduction medieval weaponry available here https://todcutler.com'>https://todcutler.com

Stats:
Bow in Joerg's device approx 30lbs
Tod's bow in Tod's device approx 95lbs
Joe's Bow in Tod's device approx 120lbs
Multishot sequence bow approx 45lbs
Feather fletched bolt 65g
Wood fletched bolt 85g

Note: A lighter bow was used for the multi shot sequence as approximately 60 bolts needed to be shot within a few minutes after an already strenuous day, so we wanted to keep it easy.

The two films clips were taken from

"Crossbow v's Longbow"    • Medieval Warbow vs Windlass Crossbow ...
