BODNIK BOWS Redman carbon - 62 inches - 30-60 lbs - one-piece recurve bow
It is not without reason that the Redman is considered the flagship of Bodnik Bows. With its unparalleled performance and impressive speed, it has set the standard in traditional archery. Now, with the brand new carbon version, it takes its performance and efficiency to a whole new level.
Carbon technology makes the Redman lighter, sturdier and even more powerful. Arrow speeds of well over 210 fps are easily achievable with the right arrow setup – and with an efficiency that will delight even the most demanding archers. Its impressive performance is supported by the increased rigidity and vibration damping of the carbon laminates, which offers a smoother shooting experience with unrivalled accuracy.
It is not without reason that the Redman has already been recognised in the USA as one of the most successful and powerful hunting recurves. With the introduction of the carbon version, it continues this success story and is conquering the world of traditional archery anew. The Redman Carbon is more than just a bow – it is the symbol of performance, passion and state-of-the-art technology.

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.
