The purpose of this blog is to correct all the errors the popular media, movies, videogames and countless drawings depict relating to bows and archery.

Androgynous manga elf again doesn't know how to shoot
This obviously Asian drawn manga-elf has not yet perfected the art of archery. Or rather, the draugtsman of this picture hasn't seen enough reference photos.
Mistakes:
1. The bow doesn't bend enough. Now the string stretches here, which doesn't happen in reality.
2. The string terminates too far from the end of the bow. The nocks for the bowstring should be quite near the end of the limbs, otherwise the bow just loses power.
3. Quiver on back. Nah, didn't happen.
