The Hero's Bow is a recurring weapon in the Legend of Zelda series. Although the bows share the similar name, none are alike one another in appearance. However, due to a statement made by a Goron in Twilight Princess that the bow Link obtains was used by "an ancient hero," it is believed that the Hero's Bow in Twilight Princess is the same as the one Link uses in Majora's Mask.

[edit] Appearances
[edit] The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
The Hero's Bow is the main treasure of the Woodfall Temple, the first dungeon in the game. Link also obtains the Fire, Ice, and Light Arrows as the main treasures of the other three dungeons in the game: Snowhead Temple, Great Bay Temple, and Stone Tower Temple, respectively.
[edit] The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

The Hero's Bow is the main treasure of the Tower of the Gods, the third dungeon in the game. Link uses the Hero's Bow to overcome the trials of the tower and prove his courage by defeating Gohdan. By talking to the Queen of Fairies on the Mother & Child Island, Link can receive Fire and Ice Arrows; in Ganon's Castle, near the final battle, Link receives Light Arrows after winning a series of Phantom Ganon battles.
[edit] The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
The Hero's Bow is the main treasure of the Goron Mines, the game's second dungeon. The Gorons had vowed to protect the Bow from Zant's invasion. Dangoro, who had been protecting it, claimed it once belonged to an ancient hero. It can therefore be assumed that this is the very same bow used by the Hero of Time in Majora's Mask. It can be used from horseback, most notably in the epic face-off against King Bulblin. It is much easier to sight down the arrowhead to the target in this incarnation than in previous incarnations in the series (Gamecube version only).

[edit] Super Smash Bros. Brawl
The Hero's Bow, as it appears in Twilight Princess, is Link's projectile weapon. The Hero's Bow from The Wind Waker is the standard special attack of Toon Link. The regular Bow from Super Smash Bros. Melee is noticeably slower than the Hero's Bow from Brawl.
