Sir James A:
If you don't want to work the bow, use a resistance band instead of a dumbbell. It'll work the same muscles better, IMO.

Sir William:
SHOOT THE BOW.  lol

Lord Dane:
My longbow is a bee-atch to restring!!!

Agreed. :) As long as he has the space to do it. At my old place, you couldn't shoot a bow in your own yard, so if you wanted to practice, you had to drive to the nearest range - about a half hour each way. Lacking the space/potential to shoot the bow, I'd settle on resistance bands.

Sir William:
Yea, if you can't shoot a bow, a resistance band attached to a fence post or column can mimic some of the movement, most of it even.  Or he could draw and slowly release (don't let the string go) as a form of isometric workout...without the arrow of course, so he doesn't accidentally shoot it off.
