CROSSBOWS MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

Global Crossbows Market size was USD 0.86 Billion in 2024 and market is projected to touch 2.08 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 10.3% during the forecast period.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the crossbows market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

A crossbow is a ranged weapon using an elastic launching device consisting of a bow-like assembly called a prod, mounted horizontally on a main frame called a tiller, which is hand-held in a similar fashion to the stock of a long gun. They shoot arrow-like projectiles called bolts or quarrels. A person who shoots crossbow is called a crossbowman or an arbalist (after the arbalest, a European crossbow variant used during the 12th century).

A crossbow is essentially a bow mounted on an elongated frame (called a tiller or stock) with a built-in mechanism that holds the drawn bow string, as well as a trigger mechanism which is used to release the string. The prod is the bow of the crossbow, and it is made of a strong material, such as wood or metal. The limbs are the two arms of the prod, and they are what store the energy that is used to propel the bolt. The trigger mechanism is what releases the bowstring, and it is typically made of a metal or plastic.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Pandemic Decreased the Market Demand"

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the crossbows market share. Many countries imposed lockdowns and travel restrictions during the pandemic, which made it difficult for people to participate in outdoor activities. This included archery and target shooting, which are two of the most popular activities that use them. Some people were afraid of contracting COVID-19 from participating in outdoor activities, such as archery. This fear led to a decrease in the number of people who were willing to go outside and participate in these activities. The pandemic caused economic uncertainty for many people, which led to a decrease in disposable income. This made it difficult for some people to afford to purchase them, even if they were still interested in participating in archery or target shooting.

LATEST TRENDS

"The development of lighter and more portable crossbows is expected to fuel the growth in the market"

Lighter and more portable crossbows are easier to use, especially for people who are not as strong or experienced. This makes them more appealing to a wider range of people, including women, children, and older adults. Lighter and more portable crossbows are easier to transport, which makes them more convenient for hunters and target shooters who want to be able to take them with them on the go. This is especially important for hunters who need to be able to hike or backpack into remote areas. Lighter and more portable ones are just as accurate as traditional ones, which means that they can still be used for hunting and target shooting. This is because the weight of the crossbow does not affect the accuracy of the shot. The development of lighter and more portable ones is a trend that is likely to continue in the future. As technology advances, manufacturers will be able to create ones that are even lighter and more portable, making them even more appealing to hunters and target shooters.
