What are the benefits of wearing hide armour when yousing a bow in skyrim?

Can I use heavy armour and still have he same power using a bow ?


Answer: Yeah you can, normal armour that isn't enchanted in anyway doesn't provide any stat bonuses, so you can just heavy armour rather than hide or leather, but last in the game, if you want to focus primarily on archery, the gear with the best archery enhancing enchantments will be hide and leather, and hopefully if you had put your perks in those skills then the armour would be even MORE effective.
