Riser | JACKALOPE - Bloodstone - ILF - 19-23 inch
The Bloodstone is a very special member of the JACKALOPE family: It is the ultimate competition bow! In the development of this bow, a clear position was taken - no compromises are made with regard to competition performance. The focus is solely on building a bow with inimitable precision, absolute shooting smoothness and first-class throwing performance.
Extremely heavy stable wood gives the bow a shooting smoothness that is second to none. This innovative material made of wood impregnated with synthetic resin is particularly resistant and torsionally stiff. With this bow, you can confidently leave "hand shock" out of your vocabulary.
Visually, too, the bow is a clear champ. The unusual play of colours on the middle section is particularly striking, with its basic black colour and deep red accents clearly reminiscent of its namesake, the Bloodstone. A symbol of the perfect blend of traditional archery and the most modern materials and technologies.
The namesake of this bow stands for vitality, strength and passion. It invigorates body and mind. It also makes it easier to master difficult challenges. Bloodstone is considered a special form of jasper, the mother of all gemstones. Already 5000 years ago in ancient Mesopotamia, warriors wore the stone as a talisman to ensure victory. There could hardly be a better eponym for this competition bow. Focused on performance and accuracy, the Bloodstone helps you focus on your competition. Like having your own coach standing by your side, ready to bring out the best in you.
ILF - Full flexibility with unimagined precision!
JACKALOPE has paid special attention to the Bloodstone grip for the limb mountings. While traditional wooden riser usually only have the option of using special screw-in limbs, things are different here: the Bloodstone grip is equipped with the ILF plug-in system. ILF stands for the "International Limb Fitting" system, which is a standardised fitting system where the limbs are not screwed to the riser, but simply plugged in. The mounting block is something special and unique! Made of full metal (aluminium), it is not only extremely stable and precise, but also enables a precise and stable ILF mount on a wooden riser, which is in no way inferior to that on a metal centrepiece.
The tiller is easy to adjust via the tiller screw, which, unlike other ILF mounts, is fitted with an additional ring that fixes the throwing arm so that it has no play when adjusting in an untensioned state. Once the position of the optimum tillers has been found, this setting is fixed with the help of the hexagon socket screw in the tillerscrew. The lateral adjustment of the limbs is now also much more precise and secure, as the lateral grub screws are no longer installed in the wood of the riser, but in the receiver. This means that overtightened screws in the wood or risers that have cracked at this point are a thing of the past.
If you are looking for an ILF mount that offers the stability of a metal riser, then the ILF Top mount from JACKALOPE is certainly the ideal solution!

Characteristics
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.
