Is the ancient bow and arrow 40 kg lethal?

40 pounds of bows and arrows have penetrating damage. However, the 40 kg bow used in the competition is not very strong, but the 40 kg bow used in the competition does not mean that you can only pull 40 kg bow. In fact, ancient archery is divided into bow and target bow: the bow is powerful and used to exercise strength; The bow force of the target bow will be low and it is used for shooting.

A person who can stably manipulate a 40-pound target bow will not be able to pull out the bow in pounds. The author's teacher uses a 40-pound target bow, which can easily open an 80-pound bow. The bow used in modern competitions is actually equivalent to the ancient target bow, and it pursues accuracy within the scope of adaptability. According to the Olympic ranking system, there are 64 male athletes and 64 female athletes, each shooting 6 groups of arrows, each with 6 arrows and 36 arrows. After resting 10- 15 minutes, shoot again according to the above procedure, with 72 arrows.

Bow and arrow power analysis:

Lack of sufficient understanding of the lethality of bows and arrows, some people think that 30~40 kg bows have no lethality. In fact, according to the experiments of the author and friends, the traditional bow with a 30-Jin wave plate can not completely penetrate the explosion-proof shield of the armed police at a distance of 10 meter, but it is no problem to punch a hole. A 40-kg bow, at a distance of 8 to 15 meters (the common range of riding and shooting), is basically a hole with a diameter of 2 mm, which is used to deal with iron armguards made of fish scales.

It is enough for small and medium-sized prey, and it is almost a penetrating injury to the human body. Arms and thighs can be directly penetrated, and at most some thick bones may be nailed. In other words, the results of the Olympic champion, plus a fast horse, were equivalent to a "humanoid submachine gun" aimed at undefended targets in ancient times.
