Which type of bow has straight limbs that form an arc when strung?
What you are talking about is a 'D section' bow as opposed to a 'recurved' bow, more than one type of bow can fit into this category, but for the most part, this will include two main types of bows:
- English Longbow, this bow has stave like limbs, its name comes from the fact that "official" English Longbows are at least 6 ft tall. Longbows never have a shelf to hold the arrow, and instead the user's hand keeps the arrow on the bow.
- American Flatbow, sometimes incorrectly called a "Longbow", its height is usually 5ft or more, they have flat limbs as well as an arrow shelf carved out into the bow.
I hope this sufficiently answers your question.

How many zones does an archery target have?
It depends on the type of target. There are more than a few types of targets in the world of Archery, and each type of target has its own system of scoring zones depending on how the target is used. Here are some I have had the pleasure to use:
The FITA target, used for the Olympic Archery competitions, has 10 scoring zones, while the target used for the "Imperial Round" in the UK (England) has 5 scoring zones. The FITA and the "Imperial Round" target faces are basically the same, regarding the color division.
The Society for Creative Anachronisms, Inc. (a not-for-profit research/educational group dedicated to studying and re-enacting life during the Middle Ages) uses the 5-zone scoring system, but also uses a target which was commonly used during the Middle Ages. This target has only 3 scoring zones - and the center "bulls-eye" is extremely small, compared to the FITA target.
