ranged weapon A crossbow is a ranged weapon using an elastic launching device consisting of a bow-like assembly called a prod, mounted horizontally on a main frame called a tiller, which is hand-held in a similar fashion to the stock of a long gun. Crossbows shoot arrow-like projectiles called bolts or quarrels.

Draw weights of adult compound bows generally fall between 40 and 80 pounds (18 and 36 kg), enabling arrow speeds of 250 to 370 feet per second (76 to 113 m/s). In the most common configuration, there is a cam or wheel at the end of each limb.

Draw weight is the amount of weight, in pounds, that you have to pull against to get a bow string all the way to full draw. Meaning that if a draw weight is set at 50 lbs, the shooter will need to apply 50 lbs of force at some point during the draw cycle to get the string all the way back.
