There are also regulations on the type of bowhunting equipment used to insure you are making your killing the most humane way possible, such regulation as minimum draw weight for the bowhunting equipment, etc.

Many bowhunting equpiment users restrict their shooting range in order to ensure that a quick kill will insue. Because bowhunters must be at a very close range to the animal in target, bowhunting is an unbelieveable experience, with added attention to the animals sight, hearing and sense of smell. The limit on effective range create an intmacy with the animal that some bowhunting equipment persons can only dream of.

Most often today, the compound bow is often the weapon of choice for a bowhunting equipment enthusiast, even though recurve bows are not all that uncommon and most of the time legal. The longbows are quieter than more mordern types, and are used to make the bowhunting equipment experiece as traditional as possible. The crowbow is ok for disabled hunters since the hunter doesn't have to draw any weight to the bow.
