hello ererybody,

I'm new to this forum and interested in traditional Korean bows.

I’m looking for a bow.  “longbow”, “mongol”,  “horsebow”,  ??  you tell me

Draw weight ~25lbs. at draw length  37 inches.  Is this possible?

my story:
I've been studing Kyudo for 3 years.  but I train with a traditional western club.
I would like to participate in some of their activities but the Japanese bow is not very apt.
I'm looking for a bow that will let me shoot without too many problems.
I want to continue with the oriental (thumb) style of shooting.

the draw weight must be light (25 lbs.) as I have a sholder  problem.

I live in Bourges, France
if there is anything else you need to know,  please ask.

thank you for your attention,
Bill Kleinsmith
