Because he ate a magical flower given by Hermes. The magical flower allows him to drink the wine but not change into an animal. That is why Circe did fail to cast the spell on Odysseus.

What was Odysseus plan for the bow?
I'm not sure what you mean his 'plan for the bow' but in The Odyssey the bow was used to challenge mens strength, first having a man attach the string to the wooden part of the bow and then use it to fire an arrow through the handle of axes (guessing that the axes handles had holes in it for hanging them up). Nearing the end of the story he and his son Telemachus use the bow in their plot to destroy the suitors who are using his food and home as their own and trying to marry his wife. The plot begins with the bow being brought out for the suitors, with Penelope (his wife) declaring she will marry anyone who can string and shoot it properly. The suitors all try and fail and as Odysseus is disguised as an old man they convince him to try, expecting him to fail also. He does it to their amazement and then shoots another arrow at one of the worst suitors Antinous. Odysseus and Telemachus (with help) murder all the suitors and housemaids after this and end up reclaiming their home.
Who is Theoclymenus in The Odyssey?
Theoclymenus was the unsung hero of the voyage who truly took on for the team. When passing the Sirens, the members of the crew put wax in their ears so that they would not be tempted to follow the song of the Sirens to their demise. Odysseus even had himself tied to the mast to make sure he would not follow the Siren's call. The wax turned out to not be as effective as initially planned and when it began to fail, Theoclymenus jumped off the ship, swan to the Sirens, and sexually gratified each Siren with a personal rim job while Odysseus and his crew continued on to Ithaca without him.
