A bow draw in archery is the method or technique of pulling back the bowstring[1] to store energy for the bow to shoot an arrow. The most common method[citation needed] in modern target archery is the Mediterranean draw, which has long been the usual method in European archery. Other methods include the pinch draw and the Mongolian or "thumb" draw. In traditional archery practice outside Western Europe the variations of the thumb draw are by far the most dominant draw types, with the Mediterranean draw restricted to the Olympic style of target archery.
