DRAKE Count – 60 inches – 16-40 lbs – Hybrid Bow

DRAKE Count – 60″ – 16-40 lbs – Hybrid Bow

DRAKE´s small hybrid bow Count has a length of 60″ and with its draw weight range of 16-40 lbs is particularly recommended for children and teenagers who have the opportunity to shoot a modern hybrid bow. The design cleverly combines the appearance and characteristics of two types of the bow: On the one hand, it is recognizable as a traditional longbow, in which, for example, the string only touches the tips but not the limbs. On the other hand, the clearly visible reflex-deflex shape of the limbs is noticeable, in which the limbs again point slightly away from the shooter as a typical feature of a recurve bow. The result is a bow with a particularly soft draw length, very good limb performance and optimum arrow speeds.

The bow is a multi-layer construction consisting of a core of maple wood, reinforcing layers of fiberglass in the limbs and an outer layer of ash or poplar. The grip area is particularly ergonomically shaped and allows the bow to lie comfortably in the hand. However, the optical appeal of the DRAKE Count is provided by the outer layers of special woods already mentioned, which give the bow a different character:

• Ash:
  Due to its positive characteristics, ash wood is one of the most important useful woods. It is always used when elasticity, toughness and strength are required. For this reason, ash wood has always been used in the construction of sports equipment, such as crossbars, bats or bows.
• Black poplar:
  The black poplar is widespread in Central Europe and gives the bow a special appearance. Especially the burl wood has brown burl eyes and a clear and very decorative pattern.

As a small special feature of the DRAKE Archer you can not only choose between a right and left-hand model with a correspondingly shaped sight bow window, but you can also do without the sight window completely. Then the bow is ideal for shooting over the back of the hand, whether as a right or left hand shooter.

And as special as the bow is, as individual are the characteristics of the natural material wood and its handcrafted production. The result draw weights are therefore not specified as exact values, but can only be specified and selected in smaller draw weight ranges.

Available as right or left hand model.
