Archers (RPG Series)
Archers, from the RPG Series, adds archery skills, craftable ranged weapons and armor, and an auto-fire gadget for bows and crossbows.
What it does
A Spell Binding Table can be found in village Gazebos or built by hand, with bookshelves placed around it. Crafting an Archery Manual grants the archery skills, which work with any bow or crossbow, including vanilla and third-party ones. Craftable bows, crossbows and armor each carry a different balance of stats, and dungeon loot chests and villages with Archery Ranges sell stronger archery equipment.
The mod changes vanilla enchantments for ranged weapons so they scale in an equivalent way to melee enchantments. Power adds a smaller damage bonus per level, Quick Draw cuts draw time by 10% per level instead of 20%, and Infinity works on crossbows by default. On 1.21 and later these changes replace vanilla enchantment data files, and datapacks can restore the original behavior. Archers requires Armor Model API, Bundle API, Fabric API, Ranged Weapon API, Spell Engine and Structure Pool API, and runs on client and server. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 8 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.3, and is not open source, released under All rights reserved.
Skill use mechanics and the HUD can be adjusted under Mod Menu, Spell Engine, Settings. Spell Engine-based mods from the same partners are listed in the mod's description as companions.

How it compares
Advanced Archery is a server-required mod with an optional client side, released under the MIT License and built for 1.21.9 – 26.3 across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Archers is client and server, all rights reserved, and covers 1.20.1 – 26.3 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Forcemaster (RPG Series Plus) is also client and server and all rights reserved, built for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 on the same three loaders, so it targets a class with a different skill set.

What the author says
Find a Spell Binding Table in village Gazebos, or build your own (just don't forget bookshelves around the Spell Binding Table). Make your Archery Manual (spellbook of archers), and unlock all the archery skills.
