Cost of archery bow?
It depends on what type of bow you wish to get - and what you are willing to "settle for". There are bows designed primarily for the beginner, such as the "Titan" (by Indian Archery) and they cost as little as $30....and there are bows made specifically for only one person, and they can cost as much as $6,000 (some custom-made bows, such those from Mongolia, can take a full year or more to build). And that is usually only for the bow itself.Add things such as an arrow rest, sights, scopes, counter-weights, etc, and the price goes up.Normally, the more a bow costs the better its quality is, but that is a generalization. There are, unfortunately, many bows which cost a lot...but are of a low quality. For a more comprehensive idea of the average cost of a bow, visit an archery store, one which specializes in archery.

Three Types of Bows Used in Archery?
The bow and arrow is one of the oldest range weapons in the world. People no longer use the weapon for protection, but the sport of archery remains a popular past time. All you need to get started is a bow, a few arrows, a target and a suitable place to shoot. A shooter can use straight bows, recurve bows and compound bows depending on the nature of the competition. Each type of bow has its own strengths and draw backs. Straight bows, despite the name are only straight when they are not strung. Then can be three and a half to six feet and length and the draw weight depends on the material used to make the bow and the length of the string. This type of bow is less accurate than the other types, but it is the easiest to make. Summer camps usually let children use a straight bow when they first attempt the sport of archery. Recurve bows look much like straight bows. The difference is that the bow curves away from person holding it at the top and the bottom. Recurve bows allow the string to pull a greater draw weight, increasing the force of the arrow and the range of the bow. These types of bows are used in many competitions, including the Olympics. Compound bows represent the fusion of modern technology with ancient weaponry. The pulley system allows for much greater draw weights than recurve bows and straight bows allow for. Manufacturers typically use aluminum instead of wood. The major different between a compound bow and the other two types is that it is easier for the user to pull and hold the bow until he is ready to shoot. When you go into a hunting goods store and look for archery equipment, this is the type of bow you’ll find. Although the bows can contribute to the shooter’s archery accuracy, the most important factor for how well an arrow gets to its intended destination is the arrow. Proper fletching is necessary to help the arrow fly straight once it is released,
