What is the best material for a longbow?

[NiCool]

I have produced a few fine longbows with various perfect boards and normal bowstrings. Now i have some perfect yarn and i dont want to waste it. Has anyone produced a perfect bowstring or a masterwork longbow? If so, what kind of boards and bowstring did you use?

From diy_glossary.txt:

.Longbow. [effort:2] [phys:stance,arms]    *BOWYER*   /18h/    |2|
{Board} <Pine, Birch> [remove]
{Axe} <Carving axe> [wearpct:30]
{Knife} <Small knife>
{Bowstring} [remove] [noquality]

So pine or birch, doesn't matter which. Bowstring material or quality doesn't matter at all.
