bowmen

Bowmen are individuals skilled in using bows to shoot arrows, historically for hunting and warfare, and today mainly in sport and recreation. They operate a bow—an elastic, curved instrument that stores energy when drawn—transferring that energy to an arrow to propel it forward with precision. Bowmen must master techniques like proper drawing, aiming, and releasing. Their skills involve understanding equipment, posture, and rhythm to achieve accuracy. The craft requires focus, practice, and knowledge of different types of bows and arrows. Overall, bowmen are experts in the art and science of archery, combining physical skill with mental discipline.
