This bow got its name from its shape. The center of the limbs curve towards the archer and the ends of the limbs curve away from the archer, which makes the bow more powerful. This design does not require as much strength from the shooter. Recurve bows are great starting bows for those who want to get started with archery. Novice archers start with a barebow consisting of bow limbs, a string, an arrow rest, and a riser for balance. As students become more skilled they can add additional features. There are also a lot of advanced recurve bows for more experienced and competitive archers. The recurve bow is also known as a traditional bow.
