Tired Warbow Lives!

The warbow has had the horn nocks fitted and I tried it on the tiller with a string that I could just slip on. It looked ok and I pulled it to about 90#.
I shortened the string but couldn't initially brace it. I enlisted some help to get the string onto the nock while I heaved with both hands while I had two feet on the string. Pulling it on the tiller looked pretty good and I took it to 90# at 24", I found a string with smaller loop which sat better in the nocks, did a bit of adjustment of the string grooves and then took it to 100# at about 28".
That interpolates to 114# which is pretty good, it was 100# originally. Assuming it doesn't explode it should be a bit punchier.
