Best Answer

The mongol re-curve bow is more powerful than the traditional European bows as it features a layer of horn on the compression side and a layer of sinew on the other. As the horn resists compression and the sinew resists stretching these layers give the bow a very large draw weight (80kg+ i think) . Also, it was the Mongols' ability with their bows and their horsemanship that made them the finest archers in the world.

Why is bow season longer than rifle season?

The use of rifles in hunting is far more efficient than using a bow; it it much easier to strike and fatally wound a deer with a rifle than with a bow. As such over a set period of time more animals could be killed with a rifle than with a bow. If rifle season was as long as bow season many more deer would be bagged, which would put a strain on the deer population. Thus, bow season is longer than rifle season because rifle hunting does much more "damage" than does bow season.
