The formula to calculate the Bow Draw Weight (BDW) is:
\[ BDW = \frac{BW}{200} \times 70 \]
Where:
Bow draw weight is the amount of force required to draw the bowstring to a specific distance. It is measured in pounds (lbs) and is an important factor in archery as it affects the bow's performance, the speed of the arrow, and the archer's comfort. The formula provided helps to estimate an appropriate draw weight based on the archer's body weight.
Let's assume the following value:
Using the formula to calculate the Bow Draw Weight (BDW):
\[ BDW = \frac{BW}{200} \times 70 = \frac{150}{200} \times 70 = 52.5 \text{ lbs} \]
The Bow Draw Weight (BDW) is 52.5 lbs.
