Real longbowmen would almost certainly have added a padded 'jack' under the chainmain to absorb impact. His helm appears to be an open-face sallet. King Richard's longbowmen at The Battle of Bosworth would have been in similar colours [blue and claret red]. They may have worn the white rose [above] or the white boar livery badge of King Richard. Longbowmen were a diminishing resource by this time. Longbowmen numbers may have been as low as 25 to 35% of total numbers engaged at Bosworth. Various kings including King Edward IV and Richard III tried to ban other sports such as football in an attempt to encourage archery.
