How did the comanches use the bow?

Like all Plains tribes the Cheyenne used the ordinary bow (ma'tsheshke) and arrows (maahotse) for both hunting and warfare.Cheyenne bows were between 33 and 52 inches long, the shorter ones made of mountain sheep horn reinforced with sinew, the longer type made of Osage orange wood, hickory or ash wood. Arrows were 24 to 28 inches and made of dogwood, fitted with turkey, buzzard or eagle feathers and metal points. The shafts were typically painted with multiple bands of colour and feathers could be trimmed into very distinctive shapes. Because of the striped turkey feathers typically used by Southern Cheyenne, the tribe was often called "Striped Feather Arrows".A set of four sacred arrows, kept in a "medicine bundle" and entrusted to a long line of selected "keepers", were considered to be living things given to the tribe by Maheo (the creator God). They represented the entire Cheyenne people and were venerated as Holy. Each arrow was considered to be worth 100 horses.The first link below takes you to an image of an original Cheyenne bow and arrow case, which was worn horizontally across the back:The second link is a drawing by Cheyenne warrior Howling Wolf of himself using a bow for hunting a buffalo - his name is drawn above him in pictorial form and he seems to have used four arrows already without killing the animal (he is shooting from the buffalo's left, when hunters usually shot from the right):
