Description

BUCK TRAIL Black Hawk - 68 inch - 25-55 lbs - Longbow

The Black Hawk is a traditional longbow in a classic shape. The woodworking of the middle section consists of Dymondwood and ebony. Dymondwood is an innovative material consisting of several layers of wood bonded with epoxy resin to form a highly stable material. This combination enables a completely new design of the centerpiece and ensures an absolutely unique look with slender, almost filigree shapes. The grip area is particularly ergonomically shaped and allows the bow to lie comfortably in the hand. This material also offers a number of technical advantages: It absorbs vibrations and allows faster, smoother shooting. The transition from the middle section and the limbs themselves are made of maple and black fiberglass.


Available as a right-handed or left-handed model.

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.
