What is the maximum bow weight that safety curtains can accommodate?

The maximum bow weight that safety curtains can accommodate is 30lb. This specification is important because safety curtains are designed primarily to protect bystanders and archers from stray arrows during practice and shooting sessions. They are effective in absorbing the energy from arrows shot from bows up to this weight.

Using bows that exceed this weight could result in arrows penetrating the curtain material, thus compromising safety. Understanding the correct weight limit helps instructors ensure that their shooting areas maintain a safe environment for all participants. This knowledge is essential for responsible archery instruction, emphasizing the importance of adhering to manufacturer guidelines regarding equipment and safety measures in an archery range or practice area.
