A slightly heavier draw length bow will make the arrow go through the air faster. Arrows are made of low density material. Carbon is less flexible and lighter than aluminium, which means that an arrow's diameter can be thinner making it more aerodynamic. Less mass= More speed The less the arrow weighs the faster the energy can make the arrow accelerate. A bow puts energy to a heavier arrow better than a light arrow. Every time you decrease 1” in draw length, you lose up to 10fps of arrow…

Bow hunters don't have it so easy. For starters, there are three kinds of bow on offer, the longbow, the re-curve and the compound bow. Arguably, the most popular bow used by modern hunters is the…

While there were many different weapons that were used during Medieval times, the crossbow may seem like a simple weapon at first, but was more than just simple weapon, up close. One reason that the crossbow seemed simple was because of the way which it looked. The crossbow had a long wooden stock, which was about two to three feet in length. The “bow” part of the crossbow was attached to the front part of the stock. Right in back of the “bow” was the bolt, or medieval arrow of the crossbow…

A bow is basically a two-armed spring that stores mechanical “potential energy” once the string is drawn and pulls back the limbs. After you recoil the cord, you utilize your muscles to exert a force on the string that bends the limbs backward. The quantity of force that your fingers exert on the string once you’ve to force it all the means back is named the “draw weight.” The elastic or spring energy is currently “potential energy” that may be reborn into launching associate arrow after you…

Gough Tyler He Took a deep breath of the cool mountain air, closing his eyes and inhaling. After holding his pose for a second, letting it all exhale with a loud and pleased sigh. Opening his eyes he saw enormous mountain ranges stretching beneath him. He was about 5 feet away from a sharp cliff face that lead to a gruesome demise. The sigh gained the attention of his horse behind him that refused to approach the cliff. Occasionally neighing at the biting cold. The horse was well dressed for…
