JACKALOPE Moonstick Carbon - 50 inches - 20-50 lbs - One piece recurve bow
JACKALOPE ARCHERY has "shrunk" the Moonstone. By popular demand, the Moonstick has been developed as an incredibly short and yet incredibly comfortable bow, which convinces with excellent casting performance. The Moonstick inspires with an efficient shooting behaviour and a soft draw. Despite its very compact size of just 50 inches, it can be easily extended to 30 inches as smooth as butter and remains soft even at full draw without forming a noticeable wall. With its high arrow speeds, the Moonstick is beyond reproach.
Much like its big brother, dark shades of grey to deep black dominate the design and create a fascinating, timeless design. The colour scheme of the Moonstick is also based on black moonstones, a very rare variation of the usually light-coloured moonstones. The namesake is said to help relieve emotional tension, free from anxiety and promote intuition and determination.
The dark colouring underlines the charming look of grained wood. The bow is rounded off by a high-performance glass laminate, which gives the bow an almost smoky finish and further emphasises the grain of the limbs.
Of course, it is not only the look that impresses: the new member of the Jackalope Archery family convinces with a grip made of Dymondwood. This innovative material - a highly stable combination of several layers of wood and epoxy resin - absorbs vibrations almost completely and allows for faster, smoother shooting.
Of course, the carbon reinforced limbs with a core made of high-quality maple and a high-performance glass laminate also play a not insignificant role in this. The carbon is used here in the area of the recurves right up to the tips and results in even greater stability and torsional rigidity. Even at full extension, just before the string is released, the Moonstick remains stable and rewards the shooter with even better shooting performance.

Characteristics
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.
