You also didnt mention how long your longbow is
How long is a piece of string?

its 174 cm, so guess the string needs to be about 20 cm less:confused:

65" or so?
...for a 68½"ish longbow. I might have something that length kicking about, will check tonight.
If not I'll make you one up. PM your address. I'll bung in some feathers too.
You take about 3" off the nock-to-nock length for a longbow if you're making a double loop string. If I make you one it'll just be a single loop though and you tie on the other end.
