Simple question. Does it cover bows? OR am I wasting points in that thinking my bow is improving. Thanks for your help

pretty sure the style points just apply to melee weapons...could be wrong

The only thing that would cover bows would be the two-handed weapon prof. I havenb't checked the description, but I'm sure it says two-handed weapons, without specifying of what time, so presumably bows get included? Wouldn't they be included in single wepaon prof too?

i think 2 handed wep style may apply to bows as well, single weapon style only applies to one handed weapons because it compensates for people who do not or cannot use shields

It does NOT. A simple test: give a bow to a guy with ++ for 2H weapon. The personal screen should say that the guy has the "Critical Hit +1" bonus (i.e., he scores critical hit at roll 19). It does not.
