A compound bow is a type of archery equipment that uses a system of pulleys and cables to bend the limbs. This design allows for greater energy storage and makes it easier to hold the bow at full draw. Compound bows are popular among hunters and target archers due to their accuracy and efficiency. These bows come in various sizes and draw weights, catering to different skill levels and preferences. They often feature adjustable sights and stabilizers, enhancing precision. Many archers choose compound bows for their versatility and the ability to customize them with accessories like quivers and arrow rests.
