Going to take the end of this sentence out - the quote from OB120 questions whether Stormlight would allow someone the strength to draw a Grandbow, so I don't think we should be making this assumption.

Grandbows were designed by [[Alethi]] [[artifabrian]]s led by [[Navani Kholin]] during the [[War of Reckoning]].{{book ref|sa1|12}} They were often used during [[chasmfiend]] hunts to injure the creatures before the hunters moved in for the final kill. In 1173, [[Highprince]] [[Torol Sadeas]] used a grandbow to attack the chasmfiend that surprised the Alethi during a hunt, while Highprince [[Dalinar Kholin]] as well as [[Adolin]] and King [[Elhokar]] attacked it with their [[Shardblade]]s.{{book ref|sa1|13}}
[[Rock]] was able to draw and fire a grandbow at the [[Battle of Thaylen Field]] and kill [[Meridas Amaram]] who had been joined with [[Yelig-nar]].{{book ref|sa3|120}} He is the only known person to be able to draw a Grandbow without the aid of [[Shardplate]]
