Description
ILF - Full flexibility!
The JACKALOPE Amber handle is handcrafted from high-quality and innovative materials in the finest European craftsmanship. It is made of naturally grown Amazoque wood, dark American black walnut and ultra-modern Mycarta, giving it its unmistakable character. The African Amazoque, with its clearly pronounced and very decorative grain, gives the handle a natural, warm appearance. In contrast to this is the dark wood of the American black walnut and the highly stable Mycarta, which provides stability as an intermediate layer and minimises hand shocks.
JACKALOPE paid special attention to the Amber grip on the support of the limbs. If traditional wood handles usually have only the option of using special screw in limbs, the situation is different here: The Amber handle is equipped with the ILF plug -in system. ILF stands for the "International Limb Fitting" system, which is a standard fitting in which the limbs are not screwed to the handle but simply plugged in. With this system you have full flexibility from choosing your limbs and you are not limited to one brand.

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.
