the difficulty of holding a bow drawn increases exponentially with time
Medieval long bows would be a fucking bitch in draw weight
just wastes your strength for no reason
Compared to modern ones
Draw pull shoot, and you might have to do that upwards of 30 times- think of doing a bent over dumbbell raise 30 times with between 40-65KG weight
Holding it would be an exercise in and of itself
Even with my bow I have yet to fire off 30 shots like that tbh
compound bows are a different story since there's a sharp dropoff in force required when bow is fully drawn
Compound bows are not real bows and are for women <:shrug:349342983763656705>
Why
I can pick up things like skeletons and road barriers and car engines but its all very heavy
@Samaritan™ not many places used longbows
@Storin I hate compound bows
Something just feels off
Because modern compounds have wheels to ease the tension and thus allow a weak person to use more power
theres a reason england and only england is known for them
modern recurve bows, though, have the same issue
I only use recurve
recurve bows existed back then
composite bows too
I also have craftable adhesives which adds a bunch of different adhesive recipes like rubber cement and plastic cement and animal bone glue
You get a higher weight sure but you get less of the work
Basically modern compounds are a lazy persons game
So it is a scam
let off doesnt help if you cant draw it to the point it lets off
China is asshol
Indeed
Bow for cucks
You should straight up use a recurve or a warbow
*longbow
or you could use something with the same power but easier
the second the person on the phone sounds chinese i hang up
some people like hitting the target though
Use a compound, be a cool dude
A warbow can be anybow but normally it means a "traditional" bow
eh, who takes rando comments from skype seriously?
hence compound bows are good
