In videos of people practicing with their horn bows I sometimes notice sections of their bows are tightly wrapped with threads.  Sometimes it's a small section along the limbs, sometimes it's almost the whole bow.  What is the purpose of this wrapping? 

EDIT: I tried attaching a picture to illustrate, but it's not showing in the post.

Hi!  I'm new here too.  I wish good luck to us both in learning KTA.

I'm curious about your experience.  When you trained and studied in Korea, did you use a horn bow?  Or a modern KTB?  How was your experience? 

I've shot 7 years of Olympic Archery, and I've recently started studying KTA.  It's very cool to learn and appreciate both styles.
