Piercing Plate Armour With Arrows

The report of a series of empirical tests undertaken at Bosworth Battlefield Centre, to demonstrate the effects of replica Medieval-period arrows being shot at a realistic piece of plate armour.

The results from these tests will enable the reader to gain a realistic idea of the capabilities of a medieval arrow used in warfare.
The tests were designed and undertaken by John Potter and Mark Stretton, who are both very experienced proponents of the warbow.
