This was taken from the jan 17th 2001 patch notes
The ranger's "Trueshot" discipline has had its damage increased after
analyzing data from its fix last week. Prior to the last patch, all bows, while under the discipline, were hitting as if they were 45dmg bows regardless of the delay. Last week's patch fixed it so that damage was based on the damage of the bow. This weeks patch increases damage bonuses in relation to delay (longer delays yield better damage bonuses).
clearly the damage bonus on the BOW was based off the delay of the BOW here not the main hand
there is 0 evidence that people were using weighted axes to assist with bow damage
