It depends on the type of bow. Many recurve bows are made of fiberglass, wood, and other primitive materials. Compound bows are usually made of steel, aluminum, and other metals. The string is made of different materials as well. Cable, sinew, linen, etc. are all types of material used to create bow strings. More primitive and tribal bows may use intestines or woven hair.

- fiber-glass
- aluminum
