Very nice series of studies on the yumi (especially versus the British longbow): comes off even better than I might have expected. And the type of arrow used has a more important interaction with the opposing armour (especially plate versus mail) than I would have guessed. Good, data-based commentary. Worth finding online or in re-runs, perhaps. |

What we need here is a translation. And a series title. Some links maybe? _________________ These Rules Suck, Let's Paint! |

Thanks Scott
I googled the Jumi when I saw Ewan's post.
I never realized how unique it was. It explained
a lot about the weapon and why Warrior categorized
it the way they did.
The site that Ewan gave is great also
