I have a longbow that I purchased a couple years ago that is a wide-limbed D-style bow. I do not remember what kind of wood it is made of but, it is backed with clear glass. It was not an expensive bow. I think I paid $130 for it new. The bow claims to be 55#@26" but it feels A LOT heavier than my other longbow which is 53#@26". It also seems to stack quite a bit.
OK so; here are my questions. How difficult/expensive would it be for someone to modify this bow to a lighter draw-weight? Is this something that someone with absolutely no bowyery experience could reasonably accomplish or should it be taken to a professional?
