If you mean that Style of bow,then as long as it can send a legal hunting arrow,130 yrds,then it legal in Ca.As to what a legal hunting arrow is in Ca,that seems to be in question,other than it has to have a 7/8" wide broadhead as a minimum width.Nv states it must be at least 24" long and 400 grn arrow,so i would guess Ca to be the same,but in Nv,it has to shoot that arrow,150 yrds.Ive done it with a 37lb bow,and exceeded that mark.
