  • ammunitionNeeds ammunition to fire, drawn from what you carry.
  • two-handedBoth hands are needed to attack with it. You cannot hold anything else.

A single-curve wooden bow short enough to draw from horseback or a hunter's blind. You gain a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. The limbs were tillered by hand until they bend evenly, so the draw is smooth to the anchor instead of stacking at the end.
