For bows u should put on weight to power draw on skills and archery mastery. If u want 2 be archer on a horse u should put points into horse archery also

Also you should only level strengh to max 24 and powerdraw to 8, because you won't notice much above it and it's just a waste of points. For horse archery, you should only need 4 points in horse archery, the rest of the accuracy will come from your archery skill at some point.

My archers in Native end up 30 Strength, 30 Agility, 15 Intelligence. Charisma is safely ignored - everything it gives you, you can get from loot or renown, which is easy to come when your are a combat beast.

So there is no point from restricting your Strength to 24. Irons Skin, Power Strike, Power Draw - you do not need the extra 2 points, but they help a bit. On the other hand, I find 2 horse archery enough. When you are on a horse, pinpoint accuracy is not all that important, especially because such 30/30 characters end up with proficencies over 550, and are accurate anyway.
