The Link Mechanical Bow uses a polycarbonate construction of linkages and springs to launch an arrow, providing a linear draw weight and higher mechanical advantage compared to a traditional compound bow. The design works by using a system of levers and springs that store energy as the bow is drawn, allowing for a more consistent draw weight and increased accuracy. This innovative approach to bow design eliminates the need for a flexible construction and offers a more efficient and powerful option for archery enthusiasts.
