The Bow functions like it does in other 2D ''Zelda'' titles, but in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', [[Link (A Link to the Past)#Link's Awakening|Link]] can create a [[Bomb Arrow]] by dropping a bomb and firing an arrow at the same time. The Bow can be purchased from the [[Mabe Village]]'s [[Town Tool Shop|Shop]] for a whopping 980 rupees. It is possible to steal it by simply grabbing it and heading out the head. However, stealing from this shop will cause two annoying consequences. Firstly, for the rest of the game, Link will be called THIEF by everyone instead of the name chosen on the Select File Screen. Secondly, every time Link enters the shop after he has stolen an item, the shopkeeper will yell at Link and kill him.

The bow is only required at two points in the game - fighting the [[Armos Knight (Link's Awakening)|Armos Knight]] in the [[Southern Face Shrine]] for the [[Face Key]], and shooting the eye of a statue in [[Turtle Rock (Link's Awakening)|Turtle Rock]] for a [[Small Key]]. Every other potential use of the bow can be substituted for another item, such as the [[Boomerang]], and the bow is one of the few items which can be traded to the [[Secret Goriya]] ''for'' the boomerang.
