The Bow can also be used to fight [[Phantom Ganon]], although it is not necessarily required either. The Bow becomes necessary to fight Ganon at his [[Ganon's Castle|castle]] by shooting [[Light Arrow]]s at him when he is stunned. | ||

In {{PH}}, the Bow is found in the [[Temple of Courage]]. The Bow is used differently in this installment, as the stylus and touch screen are dominantly used during all aspects of gameplay. Unlike the manual aiming and shooting of the Bow as seen in previous titles, the Bow is shot simply by tapping the touch screen with the stylus in the direction of a target or at the target itself. A line may also be drawn from Link to the target to better aim and shoot an Arrow; even if the line does not reach the target in question, Link's vision range will increase, revealing targets previously concealed by the borders of the normal game screen. As in previous games, the Bow is used mainly to snipe enemies and far off objects, especially {{Plural|PH|Eyeball Switch|link}}. [[Arrow | In {{PH}}, the Bow is found in the [[Temple of Courage]].

The Bow is able to charge its Arrows and fire bolts of sacred light, producing a stronger attack.

In {{SCII}}, Link can take out the Fairy Bow by simultaneously pressing the horizontal attack button and the vertical attack button. By holding the vertical attack button, he will charge his Bow. The more time that the Bow is charged, the more powerful the attack becomes. A fully charged Bow will allow Link to release a Fire Arrow instead of a normal Arrow. By tilting the control stick upwards or downwards, Link can change the direction that the Arrow will take, making the Bow a high, mid, and low attack. A normal Arrow will deal at least 40 HP worth of damage, while a Fire Arrow will deal a maximum of 60 HP damage. A hit from a Bow's Arrow, whether charged or not, will cause Link's opponent to fall to the ground. | In {{SCII}}, Link can take out the Fairy Bow by simultaneously pressing the horizontal attack button and the vertical attack button.

The Hero's Bow from {{TP}} replaces the Fairy Bow in {{SSBB}} as Link's Bow. The Arrows of this Bow fly much faster and farther than those in {{SSBM}}, able to easily clear the wide [[Bridge of Eldin]] stage when fully charged. This is more akin to their canon appearances, as Arrows in {{TLoZ|Series}} always fly straight forward and never succumb to the more realistic effects of gravity as they always do in {{SSB}} In addition, {{TWW}}'s version of the Hero's Bow is used by Toon Link; however, the Arrows of his Bow fly more slowly than those of any previous game, and also have a slight upward arc to their trajectory. | The Hero's Bow from {{TP}} replaces the Fairy Bow in {{SSBB}} as Link's Bow.

The Bow appears as an item obtained in "[[The Sorceress of the Woods]]" Scenario in {{HW}}. The Bow is used to fire Arrows that inflict minor damage, but can also be used to stun or instantly kill certain enemies. The Bow can temporarily be upgraded to fire Light Arrows by picking up its power-up in battles, increasing its damage and area of effect for its duration. Its duration can be extended by crafting [[Hawkeye]] [[Badge]]s for Warriors. It is the only weapon that can kill [[Deku Baba]]s, which first appear in "The Sorceress of the Woods", as they emit a poisonous aura that they hide in whenever another attack is directed towards them, thus requiring the use of the Bow. The Bow is also used to stun [[Gohma]] when it shows its weak spot during the boss battles against it. | The Bow appears as an item obtained in "[[The Sorceress of the Woods]]" Scenario in {{HW}}.

Princess Zelda also uses a Bow that fires Light Arrows as part of her [[Rapier]] moveset.
