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.

Den Oak Ridge Mezzo...

... hatte ich mit 45# und einer 10 Strang Bodnik Whisperstring + selbstgemachten Wollpuscheln drauf. Die Puschel wären eigentlich nicht nötig gewesen, da der Bogen ohne nicht wirklich laut ist, aber mit macht der nur noch ganz leise tschubb und die Sehne steht sofort. Der Bogen muss für Aussenstehende aussehen, als hätte man ihn gerade seinem kleinen Sohn abgenommen, bis man sieht, wie die Pfeile aus dem rausgehen. 70 Meterschüsse? Überhaupt kein Problem, auch mit weniger als 45#. Hanschock trotz sehr wenig Eigengewicht kann man eher mit Vibration bezeichnen. Der Griff ist eher schlank gehalten. Das Wallnussholz dunkel und unauffällig. Die Auszugslänge sollte allerdings 28,5 Zoll nicht überschreiten. Meiner hat da schon dicht gemacht. Wer mehr hat, sollte doch lieber zum Jackalope Moonstick oder Kiowa greifen, wenn es denn ein kleiner Bogen sein soll.
