Right-handed or left-handed?

Determination of the draw hand

The draw hand is the hand that pulls the string. This means that a right-handed bow is held in the left hand and drawn with the right hand.

Determining your personal draw hand has far less to do with whether you are left-handed or right-handed than you might initially assume. It is much more about determining the dominant eye. The dominant eye is used for aiming. This then automatically results in the draw hand.

The term dominant eye refers to the eye whose visual information is superimposed on everything. If a shooter tried to aim with the other eye, he would have to close the dominant eye.

There are two ways of determining the dominant eye: On the one hand, it is the eye that is generally favoured, for example when looking through the viewfinder of a camera, through the peephole or similar situations. On the other hand, there is a small exercise that can be used to determine the dominant eye beyond doubt:

  • The arms are stretched out and a triangle is formed with the thumbs and index fingers of both hands.
  • A small target is aimed at through the triangle, for example a socket or a cupboard knob. Focus on this object.
  • The hands are now slowly brought towards the face without taking the target object out of focus.
  • The triangle of thumb and index fingers will involuntarily tend towards one side of the face and this is where the dominant eye is located.

If the dominance of the eye and hand do not match, the bow should still be selected according to eye dominance. The arms can be easily retrained for the new draw hand, but not the eye.

Notes on delivery time

Please note the following information on the stated and actual delivery time:

You are purchasing an item that we do not have in stock ourselves, but order from a wholesaler for you. As a rule, it will be with us in approx. 5-7 working days and can then be dispatched to you immediately. For this reason, a maximum delivery time of 8-9 working days is displayed in the order form.

However, our shop system cannot display the stock levels of wholesalers and suppliers. Even the wholesaler cannot always have every variation in stock. It may therefore be the case that the item has to be ordered directly from the manufacturer (Asia, America). In this case, the delivery time can be extended to up to 12 weeks. In special cases, the item will be made for you and may have an even longer waiting time.

After finalising your order and checking the availability of your items, you will receive information from us with a more precise delivery time. If possible, we will also offer you alternatives that can be delivered more quickly.

Thank you for your understanding.

Which bow length and which draw weight suits me?

Our recommendation for the bow length:

Body height / bow length:

  • under 120cm: 54 inches
  • 121-135cm: 58 inches
  • 136-150cm: 62 inches
  • 151-160cm: 64 inches
  • 161-167cm: 66 inches
  • 168-175cm: 68 inches
  • from 176cm: 70 inches

The basic principle is:
It is better to choose a slightly longer bow, as this is more forgiving of mistakes in shooting technique.

 

Our recommendation for the draw weight:

Draw weight for men:

  • 14-20 lbs. for youngsters up to 12 years of age
  • 20-28 lbs. for infrequent shooters
  • 28-32 lbs. for sporty men
  • 32-40 lbs. for active athletes

Draw weight for women:

  • 10-16 lbs. for young people up to 12 years of age
  • 16-24 lbs. for infrequent athletes
  • 24-28 lbs. for athletic women
  • 28-34 lbs. for active sportswomen

In general:
Girls tend to be 2 lbs less than boys.
Athletic, strong children tend to weigh 2-4 lbs more than petite children.
