There are four kinds of bows, which are created in the crafting grid - however, only the hunter has access to the crude and recurve bows recipes.

Long bow can be crafted from long dry bow stave, flax twine, leather / hide pelts, fat / wax / resin.

Hunter can craft recurve bow from flax twine, leather, bone, raw bushmeat.

• Charging the Bow: Press and hold right mouse button to charge the bow (nock/draw).
• Aiming the Bow: Aim the white crosshairs at the selected target
• Firing an Arrow: Release the mouse button to fire (loose) the arrow.
