Re: useing a bow

For the string, whether or not it is under tension would depend on if the ends of the bow are pulling on the string or not.

For the wood/body/limbs part, it would depend on whether the string is pulling on the limbs or not.

As far as I know most bows are designed such that the string and limbs will be under tension when not pulled.
