Archery

The crossbow was the first high tech invention of the ancient Chinese.

Yes, it is possible to shoot a gun underwater. This theory was tested on MythBusters.

Modern recurve target/hunting bows are normally either laminated from wood and glassfibre, or, in the case of "Takedown" bows, (Bows with easily detachable limbs), either a wood or alloy handle, and wood/glassfibre laminated limbs. High-performance bows are now often carbon fibre rather than glassfibre. Historically, recurve bows have been made from virtually any locally-available materials, including laminated animal sinew, animal horn, wood, and anything else which will serve the purpose. Making a bow from these materials was a highly skilled craft, if not an art, and beautiful examples still exist to demonstrate the skill of these ancient craftsmen.

During ALL times, a person who makes bows is called a bowyer and a person who makes arrows is called a fletcher.

Your bow should be a 1967 bow if it is an Explorer II. The following dates were used:

The original Explorer had no numerical designation and was 62" long. Usually a solid wood riser...

EXPLORER 62" 1963-67 (Top of line hunting/target 30# to 60#)

Later they came out with a short 56" version and hence the beginning of the I and II descriptions. The first number relates to the year produced...there are some strange ones for transition years in labeling and design and such...but this holds pretty true to form.

EXPLORER I 56" 1967-75 (Short version replaced Explorer)

EXPLORER II 62" 1967-75 (Long version replaced Explorer)

Would love to see pics of it if you still own the bow....

Hello,I am Nathan Wu in 8th grade, this is the correct answer, FOLLOWTHEARROWS

Hi Nathan I am Theo and Ms.Tarr is mad at you.

Just Kidding

Just saying hi

Oh, you better not tell Ms.Tarr because if u do... >:)

None

You can start from any age, usually, as long as the club has a "junior" section -- and as long as your parents approve, if you are considered a minor.

Ive heard that in Missouri they found one with 19 on the left side and 25 on the right.

Depending on the activity played in archery, you can have up to several hundred people doing the same archery activity at once. However, most archery activities (such as target shooting, popinjay, splitting the wand etc) only actually need one shooter, assuming no degree of competition is desired.

It depends on the condition and what the buyer is willing to cough up!!

Sometimes, you can do it in teams or on your own.

on the 25th Anniversary Edition, I believe it is 57 "

that depends on skill level and the type of bow being used most of the time its 100 yds but that varies

take it into a bow professional store and have them change it becase u could ruin your bow if you do it wrong or it could blow up litterally blow up

You don't specify black power or long rifle, or if you mean weight or rack score, but according to the Ohio fish and game website there is a new mussle loader state record as well as cross bow. I will add that site to this answer.

edit: The "Beatty Buck" taken in Archery season in Ohio has surpassed all buck scores taken with bow or gun. Any online search for " Beatty Buck" will turn up hundreds of results for this monster 39 point buck taken by a beginning archer.

The arrows say that Americans will fight to stay free

The term is "quiver".

There are two parts to the answer of this:



(Part 1). In 1966, Holless Wilber Allen invented "Compound Bow" with triangular wheels / cams. He was then granted a patent right in 1969.


Only Holless Wilber Allen could answer this question from an inventor stand point.




(Part 2). The differences between a Compound Bow and a Traditional Bow, are the existence and the non-existence of the wheels / cams for the two bows, and the relative resultant size of the two designs, with compound bow being much shorter than a traditional bow.


The design of the compound bow introduced 2 new ways to how an arrow is shot, which could be viewed as an advantage or as an improvement in efficiency and effectiveness with weapon design. First, the smaller overall length of the compound bow allows a hunter to move around in the woods with the possibility of the bow catching onto plants and branches greatly reduced. Second, the existence of the wheels / cams requires maximum effort in pulling and minimal effort in holding & aiming stage allows a much longer and steadier hold time when compare with traditional bow shooting of the same draw weight, hence making shooting an much easier task with better accuracy (less shaking of the bow arm). The draw length and tension level of a compound bow feels exactly the opposite as how a traditional bow was pulled.


In other words, the design of the compound bow greatly reduce the human factors and uncertainty in archery. The invention of mechanical release also suggest the same by taking away the possibility of string "plugging" when a compound bow was shot with finger release. There are many debates on whether the design of compound bow is taking away too many human physical elements out of the sport of archery. Compound archery is currently not one of the Olympic Archery shooting style.

String is 98.5 and cable is 41.5 It varies by draw length, this is for 28" draw

100 yards if the house is occupied. But, if you either obtain permission from the home-owner or it is "unoccupied" than you are good. Unoccupied can be interpreted differently depending on the game warden present.
