In order to do that, the 'test' for each iteration needs to be relatively quick/cheap. To see how good a bow design is you need to do some computationally expensive CFD, making iteration incredibly computationally expensive.

I've read some papers about generative design for wind turbines and antennas and in most cases the special sauce is an approximation of the simulation that can be run more quickly.
