Genu varum (also called bow-leggedness, bandiness, bandy-leg, and tibia vara) is a varus deformity marked by (outward) bowing at the knee, which means that the lower leg is angled inward in relation to the thigh's axis, giving the limb overall the appearance of an archer's bow.

The bow leg is made of a curved leaf spring (providing the "bow" portion of the assembly), a foot on the end of the spring, a pivoting hip, and a string that causes the string to go through phases of compression. The name of the leg comes from the device's resemblance to an archer's bow in medieval culture.
A decurve bow is a bow that has arms curved or curled at the ends to turn towards the archer. This bow form reduces the strain on the bow when it is used, and the bow may be under no tension at all when strung, so that it can be kept ready for immediate use at all times. It also reduces the energy stored in the bow, and the speed of the arrow.

(GhS 2.18) [7]
