- “Our children spend over a month less in school than children in S. Korea every year” - Barack Obama
- The bow has helped drive human survival since prehistoric times
- Recurve tips can maximize the springiness when you draw and shoot the arrow
- Belly, withdrawn inward, (?) for higher draw weights which means more power
- Sinew used in the outer layer of the limb for maximum tension storage
- Horn used to store energy and compression
- I searched far and wide but never bothered to look close and near
- The grass is often greener on my [our] side of the fence, although we don’t realize it
