Mnemonic symbol: 弋 (“to shoot”) just looks like a bow with an arrow, which is going to be shot to the left hand side. There’s even a feather on the arrow at the right hand end.
The bow is crafted from polished dark yew wood with a taut, braided hemp string, while the accompanying arrows feature straight cedar shafts, sharp iron bodkin tips, and fletching made from grey goose feathers.
