Horsebow

Horse bows

Horse bows are short, light and fast bows inspired by the bows of Mongolian, Hungarian, Korean and Turkish riders. They are increasingly popular for instinctive shooting, 3D courses and horseback archery. Modern horse bows are made of laminated wood, bamboo, fibreglass or carbon and often have a leather grip.

What to look for:

• Style: Mongolian, Hungarian, Korean (Gakgung) or Turkish style, each with its own shape and feel.
• Length and draw weight: horse bows are usually 48" to 56"; start with a light draw weight, especially if you are learning thumb release.
• Shooting technique: with thumb draw you shoot off the right side of the bow (RH); with fingers off the left; some bows are ambidextrous.
• Arrows: horse bows are shot off the hand, so use arrows with natural feathers.

Popular brands include Freddie Archery, Old Mountain, Oak Ridge, Buck Trail, Samick, White Feather, Bearpaw and Attila. Not sure which horse bow suits you? DAS Roggel is happy to advise.
