I love bows- I used to practice archery when I was a child... unfortunately that was a while ago and I can't answer any of your questions...
OK, I guess that makes my post kinda useless 
But, Huzzah, yay bows!

The best type of bow is a repeating crossbow.

Have fun with that. I'm glad you still have the...imagination...to think that Van Helsing was a true story. Originally Posted by VampireHunterD

Everyone will stare at you and tell you what you know

lol, repeating crossbows are true ^_^ really they are, the chineses invented them, and also found out the name of that samurai bow, Originally Posted by trogdor1316
it's called the yumi and it beats the longbow ^_^
yumi bow arrows fly very straight but longbow arrows steers off-course for a moment before steering back to the target again,
and the yumi bow can penetrate much deeper than the long bow ^_^

Pah, the longbow owns crossbows [of that era] Agincourt is a great example of the longbows victory over the crossbow.

I mainly care about speed and accuracy from medium to close distance. A repeating crossbow from ancient China (China invented the crossbow and the repeating crossbow) would own hordes of longbow men.
