[[File:Maple shortbow detail.png|left|100px|A detailed image of a maple shortbow.]]
The '''Maple shortbow''' is a shortbow stronger than the [[willow shortbow]] that can use arrows up to [[adamant arrows|adamant]]. It is the second strongest shortbow available to non-members (surpassed only by the [[Gravite shortbow]]) and is the most popular ranging weapon in F2P worlds. The maple shortbow requires a [[Ranged]] level of 30 or higher to wield. Players can purchase this bow from [[Lowe's Archery Emporium]] in [[Varrock]] for 400 [[coins]]. It is the shortbow counterpart to the [[maple longbow]]. The only difference between the two is distance of attack and speed of attack, the accuracy and damage ability is the same.

[[Pay-to-play|Members]] can make a maple shortbow through the [[Fletching]] skill at level 50. First, a player must cut an unstrung maple shortbow from [[maple logs]], granting 50 Fletching [[experience]]. Then, the player can string the [[Maple shortbow (u)]] with a [[bow string]] for another 50 experience.

==Trivia==
*This bow was originally a members-only item. This was changed by Jagex when they believed that the free-to-play rangers were not as strong as the other two combat classes.
