Default Re: Walking around with drawn bow

It depends on a lot of things.
How much FP or strain is based on draw ST vs. the wielders ST.
Compound bows have a lower draw ST for holding then the effective ST so easier to hold for longer.
Then you have more wear and tear for keeping the bow at stress.
At most you should walk around with an arrow knocked but not drawn for most if not all bows.
