The English Warbow/Longbow lives rent free in the Mind of Administrative Results. Often times one can catch him obsessing over the implementation of the longbowman for medieval warfare. A video like this is very cathartic for him, for it allows him to wax over his thoughts on the Warbow/Longbow.

The English Longbow, often referred to as the Warbow, played a significant role in medieval English warfare, particularly during the Hundred Years’ War (1337-1453) with France. These bows were characterized by their great height, typically standing as tall as the archer, and were made primarily from yew wood. The longbow’s design allowed for a high draw weight, meaning that the archer needed considerable strength to draw and release the arrow effectively.
One of the most famous battles showcasing the effectiveness of the English Longbow was the Battle of Agincourt in 1415. English archers, armed with longbows, played a crucial role in the victory over the French. The longbow’s long range, accuracy, and rapid rate of fire made it a formidable weapon on the battlefield.
Training to become an archer, especially for longbows, was a demanding process. The archer needed to develop both strength and skill. Training often started from a young age, and archers underwent years of practice to build the necessary muscle strength for drawing the high poundage of the longbow.
Accuracy and consistency were crucial, so archers would practice regularly to refine their shooting technique. The process involved not only physical conditioning but also mental discipline to maintain focus during the chaos of battle.
Composite bows, often used in the East, had different advantages and disadvantages. They were typically shorter, making them more maneuverable, but they generally had a lower draw weight compared to longbows. Composite bows were well-suited for mounted archers and were effective in different tactical situations.
In summary, the English Longbow was a powerful weapon that played a crucial role in medieval warfare. Its effectiveness was rooted in the archer’s skill, training, and the bow’s design, but it also had limitations, especially in terms of the training required and vulnerability in certain combat scenarios.
