Sounds fair. In my case our bows are made by the same bowyer, Gary Evans so at least that is similar. They are only 7lb different at our given draw lengths. I will do some experiments at the club this weekend. It’s fun to play around with stuffIt'll show up more over distances, and with longbow the draw weight is only a starting point, I have a 45lbs snakewood bow that will shoot the same arrows as my 65lbs osage bow. The osage isn't a slow bow, but the snakewood is ridiculously fast. It's about the speed of the bow, not the measured draw weight, a fast bow needs a stiffer arrow than a slow bow.
