The Bow makes a return in the newest Zelda installment, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. In this game, the Bow is received in the [[Sandship]], and can be used to kill far-off enemies, activate [[Timeshift Stone]]s, and more. The controls are much different than that Link has ever since before. It is used with the Wii remote in the right hand and the Nunchuck in the left. After holding C to nock an arrow, you pull back the Nunchuck just like you are pulling back the string on a bow, and release the C button to shoot an arrow. This is the same control scheme that can be found in Wii Sports Resort for archery. Unlike in previous games, the bow will not make the slingshot useless. Since it takes a relatively long amount of time to aim and fire arrows, it will mostly be used for more precise shots. As usual you can shoot enemies with the bow, and items can be knocked off trees and other objects. Additionally, items dropped by enemies (such as hearts) can also be shot with the bow and pinned to walls. By doing this, Link can reclaim his dropped heart as well as his arrow. | The Bow makes a return in the newest Zelda installment, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''.

This technique of using the bow and arrow was showed in demos of [[Twilight Princess]] but in the end, it was not used.
