Can I bring a real bow to FanX?

A real bow can be used as long as it is unstrung or loosely strung so that no projectile can be fired. The problem with real bows is that if they are compound bows, they cannot easily be unstrung, and damage to the bow can be caused if done incorrectly. A recurve bow loses its curve when unstrung. For this reason, a fake bow might want to be used.
