I understand that you slowed this bow for balancing reasons, however if you are basing on the war bow used by the English in the hundred years war you would do better to drop the damage slightly but put the speed on the same level as the vanilla long bow. The men that used these war bows would start training around 7 or 8 years of age and by the time they 18 or so would have such huge upper body strength that they could draw these bow very rapidly and also accurately. The rate of fire they could achieve was not exceded until the invention of the gattling gun.
Good idea, would need either a strength/stamina requirement or a perk that granted both requirements. The strength part would be needed to make the draw and the stamina to keep doing it.
