JACKALOPE - Tourmaline - 54" - 20-45 lbs - Horse Bow

The JACKALOPE Tourmaline is a modern horse bow that reinterprets tradition. It is handmade in the finest European craftsmanship from high-quality and innovative materials. The very slim grip area and the limbs are made of natural Amazaque wood and ultra-modern Teknowood, for example, which gives it its unmistakable character. The African Amazaque, with its clearly pronounced and very decorative grain, gives the handle a natural, warm appearance. In contrast to this is the innovative Teknowood, in which several layers of wood are combined with epoxy resin to form a highly stable material, which minimises hand shocks and promises high stability. The limbs, on the other hand, are made of bamboo and clear glass, the light wood tones of which are a beautiful complement to the handle and run out in conspicuous limbs. Speaking of conspicuous, the limbs are perhaps the most conspicuous of the whole bow, because their form is as unusual as it is breathtaking. They are much stronger and more massive than other horse or recurve bows and yet they are very filigree and elegant. They give the bow something very special.

Inimitably colourful like his name sponsor! The Tourmaline's handle combines a coordinated play of colours of warm brown and earth tones with accents of silver grey and emerald green. Each bow is unique and underlines the personal individuality of each shooter. The eponym Tourmaline stands for smoothing the way to your goal, it not only has an uplifting and invigorating effect but also has a positive effect on the spiritual level.

Horse Bows - agile and fast

The horse bow was originally developed in Asia. The best-known peoples are the Huns and Mongols, who have used this archetype of bow making for centuries. The horse bows were, as the name suggests, designed and perfected for shooting from horses. When riding, the space on the horse is limited and the mounted warrior had to remain agile in order to survive or to hunt successfully. In contrast, the typical Western European bows, such as the English longbow, horse bows do not consist of a single piece but are usually composed of several parts. Thus wood was used, which was glued and reinforced with horn, strings and bones to build a strongly reflex bow, which is short enough to shoot from the horse and which could guarantee long pull-outs and fast arrow speeds.

This almost perfect bow spread worldwide in the course of history and other peoples also developed their horse bows, which did not differ significantly in their basic function, but each represented its own variants. In Europe, it is mainly the Magyars (Hungarians) who enjoy an excellent reputation as riders, archers and bow makers and who shaped the horse bow and the shooting of horses.
