Are there laws for shooting a bow and arrow in Illinois?

There are laws regulating almost any and every activity within the State of Illinois, especially when it concerns, guns, bows, and wildlife. In addition to Statewide laws, there are also a wiode range of local laws and/or ordinances that must be consulted. Here are the basic laws in the State of Illinois: There is no minimum age required to shoot a bow or bow hunt, although anyone born after January 1, 1980 must take and pass a hunters safety class in order to hunt, but not to shoot a bow and arro. The State of Illinois does not classify a bow of any kind as a firearm, therefore no Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) card is required to own, purchase or use a bow. Since a bow is not classified as a firearm it and its use are not subject to firearm laws. Generally, you can shoot a bow and arrow anywhere you choose so long as it is safe. Yes, you can shoot your bow within city limits, in your backyard, or your basement. It is not a firearm and is not subnject to firearm laws or ordinances. However, it is important that you check your local laws very carefully, as some cities and counties (like Chicago and Cook county) continue to violate your rights by passing restrictive laws that have been sot down by the US supreme court.

What advantages did the bow and arrow give to hunters?

Distance. Prior to the bow, a hunter had to kill by knife, spear, rocks, traps, or by driving the animal(s) over a cliff.
