Is it hard to pull a bow and arrow?

Answer 1

Depends on what the bow and arrows were made out of. For killing/wounding people, the bow has to be made of a strong wooden or metal material, the 'string' can either be thick thread/string or copper wire (wear gloves), the arrow's material can again be wooden or metal. The tip should be made of metal. Does more damage in my opinion; strong rock can work, too, but metal is stronger.

Answer 2

Well, from my history lessons that I had when I was younger, a child had to learn to use them at a young age, as their shoulder muscles required proper training. The lighter weigh less than 10 pounds (4kg) but a longbow could be as much as 25 pounds (11kg, plus or minus). Modern arrows are made from lightweight alloys, but the ol' wooden weren't really all that heavy, maybe half a pound (quarter of a kg) or so.

only if you consider breaking your middle, thumb, and index fingers
