Abstract: A bow capable of mitigating a bad motion occurring in an initial stage of an arrow shootings includes a handle gripped by a user's hand; upper and lower limbs respectively coupled to upper and lower portions of the handle; a string having ends coupled to the upper and lower limbs; and a vibration damper coupled to the handle, the vibration damper being installed within a ±7 cm distance range in the up-down direction from a distance center point of the handle with the upper and lower limbs coupled thereto and positioned on a front surface of a grip portion of the handle.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a limb for a compound archery bow, comprising a core and a thin composite material completely surrounding the core. The core is made from synthetic foam or wood and the thin composite material is made from carbon fiber, a glass fiber, or a combination thereof. With such a structure, the compound archery bow has excellent impact absorption ability and high torsional strength, thereby achieving an increase in shooting speed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a limb of an archery bow for eliminating problems involved in a conventional limb having a flat strip structure exhibiting an insufficient stability and an insufficient shooting speed. The disclosed limb includes wood layers, carbon layers, and fiber glass layers and has a concave or convex arc-shaped cross-sectional structure outwardly or inwardly gently bent in a longitudinal direction.
