Description

DRAKE Arban - 58" - 26-60 lbs - Mongolian Horse Bow

The horse bow was originally developed in Asia. The best known peoples are the Huns and Mongols, who have used this prototype of bow manufactured over centuries. The horse bows were, as the name suggests, designed and perfect for shooting from horses. After all, when riding on horseback, space is limited and the mounted warrior had to remain agile in order to survive or hunt successfully. This almost perfect bow spread worldwide in the course of history and other peoples also developed their horse bows, which did not differ significantly in their basic function, but each represented its own variants. In contrast to the typical Western European bows, such as the English longbow, horse bows do not consist of a single piece but are usually composed of several parts. Thus wood was used, which was glued and reinforced with horn, stringss and bones to build a strongly reflex bow, which is short enough to shoot from the horse and which could guarantee long pull-outs and fast arrow speeds. 

The Mongolian horse bow DRAKE Arban, whose name means "ten" or "ten men" and was a team strength of the Mongolian army at the time of Genghis Khan, is a modern bow that follows tradition and is constructed in several parts. The outer cover layers of ash, black poplar, zebrano or yew complement the maple heartwood and not only make the bow soft to the touch but also allow the typical draw length length of up to 32". The ends of the limbs are stiffened and much stronger. They consist of four separate wooden elements, which are glued on both sides to the limbs and laterally connected with other wooden elements, making the tips appear so solid. The effect of action of the stiff ends is relatively simple: Since the bow string is only in contact with the lower end of the stiffener, the bow feels harder and harder at first, but as soon as the bow string moves away from the ends, the lever effect of the long stiffeners suddenly starts and the pull-out becomes softer and more pleasant. This sophisticated mechanism makes the arrows faster and allows the bow to forgive more mistakes when releasing the arrow.

The handle is ergonomically shaped and very slim. It is therefore particularly suitable for shooters with small hands. In addition, it is wrapped in leather and particularly handy. The transition between the flat throwing arms and the thicker tips is also wrapped with thread.

The individual look of the DRAKE Arban is provided by the already mentioned outer laminates made of special woods, which give the bow a different character. The choice is yours:

  • Zebrano:
    The wood Zebrano gives the bow an interesting appearance with its distinct grain with regular dark stripes and is particularly pleasing to lovers of light-coloured woods.
  • Yew:
    Yew is one of the most traditional woods in bow making, which probably had its greatest use in the Middle Ages when longbows were the standard weapon of the English army. Even today, this wood is still used for bow making. The warm colour and fine structure of the wood is particularly beautiful.
  • 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.

They grow up to 150 years old and reach heights of up to 30m. The wood is relatively light and soft. Especially the veined wood has brown veined eyes and a clear and very decorative pattern.
And as special as the bow is, as individual are the characteristics of the natural material of wood and its craftsmanship. The resulting draw weights are therefore not specified as exact values, but can only be specified and selected in smaller draw weight ranges.

Suitable for right and left-hand shooters.
