70" Ben Pearson "Ol Ben" D type longbow. It was marked 55# @ 28", but felt like I was trying to bend a 2x4. Owned a Marriah Thermal 55#'er that felt like half the weight of the BP. Think it was badly mis-marked. Didn't have that one long!

GB if I remember correctly the "Goatherders Staff" was a good bit over 72".

I'm thinking 80 plus tip to tip.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

God bless,Mudd
