	The composite longbow is a large complex bow whose limbs are built up of various materials, usually in a recurve shape. You need at least two hands to use a bow, regardless of its size. You can use a composite longbow while mounted. All composite bows are made with a particular strength rating (that is, each requires a minimum Strength modifier to use with proficiency). If your Strength bonus is less than the strength rating of the composite bow, you can't effectively use it, so you take a -2 penalty to-hit on attacks with it, per plus of Strength modifier greater than your own. The default composite longbow requires a Strength modifier of +0 or higher to use with proficiency. A composite longbow can be made with a high strength rating to take advantage of an above-average Strength score; this feature allows you to add your Strength bonus to damage, up to the maximum bonus indicated for the bow. Each point of Strength bonus granted by the bow adds 100 gp to its cost. If you have a penalty for low Strength, you apply it to damage rolls when you use a composite longbow, in addition to the to-hit penalty for insufficient Strength. For purposes of Weapon Proficiency and similar feats, a composite longbow is treated as if it were a longbow. The composite longbow belongs to the "Bows" weapon group.
