Riser | JACKALOPE Zircon - Paragon - 25 inch - ILF
With the Zircon PARAGON, JACKALOPE is expanding the Zircon series with another impressive model. Made of CNC-milled aluminium, the 25-inch riser features clean lines with harmoniously curved lines that combine to create a convincing whole.
The design with recesses and diagonal struts not only looks great, but also offers maximum stability and torsional stiffness while saving on material and weight. Speaking of weight, at 1340g the riser is not too light and provides a convincing shooting feel. More weight and thus more balance can be achieved with additional weights or stabilisers, which can be mounted on the four stabiliser sockets and add weight where it is needed in the personal adjustment of the bow.
In addition to the optimal weight, the comfortable grip in a colour-matching wood look also contributes to the absolutely convincing shooting experience. Relatively slim, it fits perfectly in the hand and provides a perfect pressure point.
Equipped with three sockets for stabilisers on the front, an integrated clicker extension and all the other sockets for the Button, arrow rest and sights, the Zircon Paragon riser is technically up to date and also has lockable tiller screws and lateral adjustability of the limb mountings. The adjustment screws for the limb mountings are additionally secured with screws that reliably prevent them from being adjusted by vibrations.

ILF system – innovative and flexible
The limbs themselves are attached to the riser using the International Limb Fitting (ILF) system. This involves simply inserting the limbs into the limb receivers on the riser, rather than screwing them on. This innovative, standardised system makes it possible to use limbs from different manufacturers and does not tie the archer to one manufacturer or the manufacturer of the riser. This makes it easy to quickly assemble the limbs or exchange them for other draw weights or models.

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.
