C.V. EDITION by SPIDERBOWS - Raven CARBON - 62 in. - 68 in. - 30-50 lbs - Take Down Recurve bow
With the new Raven bow series, SPIDERBOWS presents an elegant take-down recurve bow based on the geometry of the top line Condor.
The riser of the Raven Competition is made of stabilised wood and is 30% heavier than a "normal" Raven riser. The stabilised wood is a high-strength composite material made of wood and synthetic resin, which offers many advantages for bow making: It combines the natural, pleasant feel of wood with a higher weight and the resulting smoother shooting behaviour and a plus in precision. Provided with an ergonomic grip, it nestles perfectly in the hand and gives a great feeling when shooting.
The colouring of the Raven was specially developed by SPIDERBOWS. This makes the Raven absolutely unique in the world of archery. The result is an elegant play of colours consisting of dominant, noble black with discreet decorative stripes in orange, green, blue or red, which give the bow a timeless yet modern and unusual look.
C.V. Edition - Developed by the world champion
Two years of hard work have gone into the C.V. Edition, which was developed jointly by SPIDERBOWS and Christian Vorderegger, the World and European Champion in the IFAA. It was not easy to meet all his demands and set goals, but SPIDERBOWS has succeeded in building bows with the C.V. Edition that make no compromises.
The limbs of the C.V. Edition are based on a core of bamboo wood, which is covered on the outside with a 1.2 mm thick exposed carbon laminate and does not require any additional glass laminate. On the inside, on the other hand, only highly stable, black laminate is used, with a silky-matt shiny surface.
This special limb construction has it all and offers a number of advantages: In addition to maximum torsional stiffness, it guarantees extremely forgiving shooting behaviour and very high speeds.
In order to ensure the quality that one associates and can expect with the name of a world and European champion, all bows are tested, signed and prepared ready to shoot by Christian Vorderegger after production.

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.
