BODNIK BOWS Crow - 58 Inch - 20-40 lbs - Recurve Bow
The Bodnik Bows Crow is a compact hunting recurve bow in a classic traditional style that is particularly characterized by its smooth shooting, speed and beginner-friendly features. With a handy 58-inch draw length, the Crow combines the advantages of a recurve bow with the ergonomic benefits of a longbow grip. This unique combination makes it the ideal choice for traditional archers looking for a short, powerful bow.
Particularly noteworthy is the ability to draw the Crow to a draw length of 32 inches without stacking. This also provides a comfortable shooting experience for archers with a longer draw length. This bow is characterized by its good balance of smooth shooting and speed and, thanks to its longbow grip, it offers a secure hold, even for beginners. Weighing only about 464 grams, the bow is pleasantly light and can be easily used for long periods of time.
The Bodnik Bows Crow is the perfect choice for archers looking for a compact, powerful recurve bow that is still fairly priced.

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.
