Five major types of bows and arrows

Recurve bow

The recurve bow is designed for modern competitions and is equipped with a sight and an arrow rest. The operation is relatively simple. You only need to aim and release the arrow to complete the archery process. It is a bow that is more suitable for novices and is specially designed for Olympic events.

Bare bow

The bare bow is a variant of the modern competitive recurve bow. On the basis of the recurve bow, it removes the sight, balance bar, clicker, shock absorber and other accessories, making the shooting more pure. The main difference between bare bows and competitive recurves is that the competition rules are different, and the selection of accessories, bow adjustment ideas, and shooting techniques are different. Because its support point is relatively single, it is a bow that is easier to use in actual operation.

Compound bow

The compound bow combines the pulley structure. When the bow is fully drawn, it has a certain labor-saving ratio, which reduces the force required to maintain the fully drawn state. In comparison, the compound bow has the highest accuracy and arrow speed. At the same time, it is also the most expensive bow of the same quality.

American hunting bow

The American hunting bow has a domineering and cool appearance. It is mainly used for hunting, so it is easy to carry. The American hunting bow has a bow window and a fur-covered arrow rest, and the aiming point is five centimeters above the arrow rest. Although it is not as common as a compound bow in actual hunting, it is deeply loved by players.

Traditional bow

The traditional bow has a simple appearance, with only the bow body and bowstring, and no arrow rest. The bow holder needs to put the arrow on the bow and release it with the thumb. The whole body movement needs to be very stable and powerful. It is the most difficult bow to operate among several types of bows.
