A stave refers to a strip or single piece of wood from which a bow will be made. Trees are typically cut into staves as the first step in the process of making various types of bows. Also known as bois d’arc (wood of the bow, bow wood) by early French settlers. The Osage Orange tree is ideal for making many types of bows. It is similar in characteristics to yew and other old-world bow woods. See our entry for bois d’arc in this glossary for more. A technique for string bows, specifically traditional longbows like the English longbow. It is not a widely used stringing method as it can exert uneven pressure on the bow limbs. However, with some practice and care it can be effective enough Most archery is an exercise in aiming. Other than instinctive archery, which requires the archer to more or less point at the target with their body, bow, and arrow, most archery relies on an aiming technique of one kind or another.

Overview

Another industry standard for measuring the weight of an arrow. The grain per inch is a standardized non-metric measurement unit of linear or linear mass density. Most bow manufacturers recommend a minimum GPI for a certain draw weight of a bow.

A point on the bowstring that the shooter’s lips touch when the bow is at full draw. This is to assure the stability and precision of the anchor point. The arrowhead is the attachment that goes on the one end of an arrow as illustrated above. It is the “business end” of the arrow.

Carefully flaked bits of flint were inserted partially into the shaft and bound in place with twine. The core wood of a tree. This is typically harder and denser that the outer layers of the trunk which is known as the sap wood. The simplest form of arrow rest is a cut-out portion of the bow just above the handle or where the archer holds the bow.A ferrule is the part of an arrowhead that fits over the arrow shaft. It has an internal diameter equal to the diameter of the arrow shaft so it can fit over it securely. The bow, as we’ve discussed the bow is an energy storage and transfer device. Not all of that energy is transferred however, some of it is reabsorbed by the bow itself. This excess energy can be felt as vibrations in the bow and string after release. String silencers are devices that attach to the bow string and help dissipate some of this energy. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Some of the more common ones include the “cat whiskers” variety. Made from a small, flexible yet sturdy material, typically leather, a finger tab protects the archer’s fingers from the dreaded finger pinch. The tab is usually specially shaped to cover the inside of the index, middle, and ring fingers for archers shooting Mediterranean style.
