Can you take a modern recurve bow to ancient times to kill the bow at that time?

No, the ancient bow was pulled from 100 kg, but the China green bow and the British longbow that can be verified now are basically above 100 kg. This is the pursuit of lethality, and the modern competitive recurve bow Rally even stipulates that no bow exceeding 50 kg is allowed. In the actual competition, unless the 70-meter target is hit, the bow used by athletes in the general competition is about 40 kg. Of course, everyone's pulling force is not exactly the same. Although the efficiency of modern bow is higher than that of ancient traditional bow, the huge tension value can not be leveled by the efficiency of today's materials. Of course, bow hunting will be more powerful, but there is also an upper limit. After all, the prey that ordinary people can shoot is not particularly large, and their defense is particularly high. Few people kill elephants and rhinos with bows. Then there is no need to exceed the strength that the animal body can defend. But in ancient times, you know, there was armor.

According to the current classification, the difference between traditional bows and modern bows lies in whether there is a bow-window arrow platform, which will improve the accuracy and be more convenient to use. Of course, it varies from person to person. Yang Jiyou can shoot poplar leaves with a traditional bow 100 paces away. Now people let him take a compound bow and can't even shoot poplar leaves 100 meters away. Even with a rifle and no optical sight, it is not something that ordinary people can do. Before it's too late, let's continue to talk about the bow window and open a bow window on the handle. This is not technically difficult. Why hasn't anyone done this for thousands of years? The answer is that if you open your bow, you will be divided into right and left hands. In ancient times, opening the bow left and right was a necessary skill. For example, if you are sitting in a chair now, imagine that you are riding a horse, and then you make a gesture of pulling the string with your right hand and holding the bow with your left hand. Then you will find that you can only shoot the enemy in front and on the left, but the right hand can't shoot the enemy on the right.
