Samurai considered skill with a bow to be far more important than skill with a sword. Not what you thought, right? It makes sense considering Japanese battle tactics. Samurai would rain arrows down on the other side’s fighters from a nice, safe distance, shooting the arrows upwards at an angle to get the right range and damage. Close combat was much more dangerous, so it was considered the last resort if ranged battle had already failed.
