What kinds of bows and arrows are there in China?
Bows include horn bow, compound bow and pulley bow. The latter two kinds of bows are made of modern materials and are generally used as competition equipment. Horn bow is the pinnacle of ancient bows and arrows in China, no less than bows made of modern materials. Horn bow is made of ox horn, bamboo and wood tires, beef tendon, animal glue and other materials through hundreds of processes. It has high technical difficulty and long production cycle, but it can't be preserved for a long time, and it can be preserved for a hundred years at the longest. As an important weapon in ancient wars, bows and arrows were eventually eliminated by guns, and the traditional bow and arrow culture has since become history. Few people can make traditional bows and arrows now, perhaps only a few masters from Beijing Juyuan and Qufu Xugongfang can do it.
