A late bow is used for increased ball control but mostly to aid in lifts, like flicks and aerial passes. A stick with a late bow is especially helpful when shooting a drag flick. Transitioning from a stick with a mid bow or little to no bow to a stick with a late bow can pose a challenge when it comes to hitting/driving the ball. However with practice, adjusting your hitting technique to the late bow in a stick is rather easy if you have a good hit to begin with. Sticks with late bows are best for forwards and mid-fielders that will be lifting the ball a lot.
No. Bow rosin is bow rosin.
The materials a hockey stick is made of are naturally springy or flexible. Each one ranges from quite firm and stiff to very giving in nature. The combination they are in, and how they are put together, controls how flexible a stick will be and where it wil bend to any amount. For field hockey sticks, the permanent bend is often built in as part of the molding and manufacture process; this bow can increase with age, and different bows are used in different sticks. The oldest of bowed sticks were originally straight, but gained a bow through age and exposure (the weather and conditions would warp the wood).

Compounds have cams at the end of the bow which make it easier to pull back and pushes the arrow farther.
A bay window begins at the foundation (or in some instances the floor system) and forms the offset the "sticks out from the house" and extends to the ceilings. Normal windows are actually installed in a bay window. A bow window is made so that just the window sticks out from the house and the floors and wall above and below the window remain straight.

Sticks were originally made of two parts spliced together (the head and the shaft) - the angle of the splice determined the bow, and was usually around 20mm. When composite sticks were introduced, manufacturers began experimenting with different bow sizes and they soon got out of control. One sideeffect of these extreme bows was an increase in the speed of a dragflick; the movement became more of a slingshot action than a flick. The FIH quickly restricted the bow to 50mm, but even then it was found to be excessive. The regulation was then dropped to 25mm and has remained there since.
probably be fine, but a lot of defenders these days tend to get sticks with a low and big bow, for aerials, as they can suddenly start a suprise attack and also get you out of danger. i recommend the grays gx7000 jumbow as it has the maximum legal bow, and is dead easy to aerial/drag flick with
The bow of a hockey stick (low, mid, etc.) identifies the position of the arch in the stick shape.
