No, a bow and arrow is held vertically and the arrow has to be pulled to shoot the arrow. A cross bow is held horizontally and doesn't need to be pulled, you just pull a trigger. The Crossbow has more power but a Bow and Arrow can reload faster. Just pick the one that suits you the most.
No, they're not more accurate, but anyone can use a crossbow with minimal training, whereas to use a weapon such as a longbow takes years of training from an early age. A longbow, as used in medieval times, needed strong shoulders to pull; some required a force of 100 to 150 pounds to loose an arrow properly, so regular training was essential.
they used thing like swords, bow and arrows, crossbows, cannons, daggers and guns - (rifles and pistols).
Usually armor protected people against arrows, but some stronger types of bows like crossbows and longbows could penetrate metal armor.
Bolts from the crossbow can be stronger than a longbow but longbow's can shoot arrows from long range and crossbows are useful to kill people on PVP or to kill them on any knids of Mini - game.But in my opinion , crossbows was my idea to use for hitting harder.
Early crossbows were made of wood with metal fittings. From about the 14th century, steel was more often used for the bow itself.
No and no. Specifically, arrows for bows are longer and more flexible as a slight flex can improve an arrow's flight, but crossbows would be too powerful and break the arrow. Crossbow bolts/quarrels are far too short to be used correctly in a bow, as a real archer would never partially draw the bow to shoot an arrow, yet a bolt would not be long enough for the archer to draw back to his or her anchor point (that same place on their face they always draw back to, to make shots powerful and consistent).
Materials: Wooden, Aluminium, Carbon, Plastic, Fibre Glass Types: Competition arrows, hunting arrows, signalling arrows, all can be made from above but have different arrow heads or points.
Bow and arrows.
Ojibwa hunts with bow,arrows,axes and more..........
Yes, bow and arrows can be considered as capital resources for Native Americans. These tools were used for hunting and warfare, enhancing their ability to obtain food and defend their tribes, which in turn contributed to their economic and social well-being.
they used spears,axes,bow and arrows,and knives and guns when the europeans arrived in america but they prefer the bow and arrow because they could make it and its ammo the gun on the other hand had to trade for ammo and gunpowder but gunpowder weapons were more powerful and had longer range then the bow and arrows.
He had a silver bow and silver arrows, just like her sister Artemis :)
