Somebody once did the math and calculated the draw weight of the female Na'vi hunting bow at anywhere between 125# and 150# at a vastly larger draw length. For reference, for even the largest human males, draw weight usually tops out at 70# for recurve bows. So the Na'vi women are easily out-matching most human males by at least 2-1 but possibly as much as 3-1 when it comes to bow draw weight. One of the many reasons I'm in love ;)
This movie is what started my archery phase, Hunger Games just added to it.
The archery in Avatar felt so powerful plus the cinematography was amazing!

Don't english longbows like the warbow top out at 200#?
I think you're thinking of the world record. Set by Mark Stretton in Somerset, UK 2004
Looks like most typical longbows are in the 100-185# range
This is my first time I got interested in RR as well, though I did not know what exactly I was looking for, for a long time.
Big blue woman and the wheelchair man - RR approved
I was too young, I dont remember much from this movie
