What would be the energy transfer in a drawn longbow?
The energy transfer in a drawn longbow involves the conversion of potential energy stored in the bowstring as it is pulled back into kinetic energy as the arrow is released. This kinetic energy propels the arrow forward with force and velocity. The efficiency of the energy transfer depends on factors such as the draw weight of the bow, the draw length, and the design of the bow.
What is the lowest draw weight that will kill a deer?
The lowest draw weight on a bow, that I've heard of is about 55 pounds. But I've heard of people killing deer with a little less.

Is 150 pounds a lot of draw strength on a Crossbow for a kid do you really have to pull 150 pounds or is 150 pounds a mesurment for force or something?
150 lbs is 150 pounds of draw weight, in a bow I would say that you'd need a brear of a person to wield it. Fortunately, it is a crossbow you are talking about, but that is still too much for a child to draw. Try using a bow with less draw weight and let them build up strength so they can use a stronger crossbow when they are older.
What does draw weight mean when referring to bows?
Draw weight is the power the arrow is loosed at. Bows with more draw weight like long bows require very strong people to handle. The better the draw weight the further/harder the arrow flies eg: Arrows peircing chainmail... Hope this was the answere you were looking for. Enjoy...
What is the spine weight on an arrow?
The spine of an arrow is not expressed in "weight" - it is the bow's pulling power that is expressed as a weight figure. The arrows must suit this weight.Any bow takes a certain amount of force to draw back to the normal shooting position (usually with the string touching the chin and nose); this force is measured in x number of pounds - my own ash longbow is lighteweight at just 45 pounds draw weight.In order for the arrows to fly true, they must have a certain amount of flexibility ("spine") to match the draw weight of the bow - if they are too flexible they will shoot off to the right, if too stiff they will go left of the target. This is due to the so-called "archer's paradox" where the arrow first bends itself around the bow handle and then continues to fly straight.
What was a longbow?
A longbow is a type of bow that is tall (roughly equal to the height of the person who uses it); this will allow its user a fairly long draw, at least to the jaw (the average length of the Mary Rose arrowshafts is 75 cm/30 in).
