Jackalope Archery
Jackalope - So far, most of us have most likely only associated this name with the mythical creature from the USA, which appeared in the shape of a rabbit-buck with conspicuous antlers.
But in 2016 there was an event that made many archers on this planet remember the name Jackalope for a very long time and anchor it in their passion for archery.
At this point, the horned rabbit-buck not only is an American mythical creature, but rather the characteristic image of a winning streak that has only just begun.

The bow unites quality and performance and can thereby even compete with high-end bows. On top of that, such quality and performance have never been seen before in this price range. If nothing else, independent archery blogs and magazines as well as our comparisons and tests will confirm this.
As a reaction to the throughout positive feedback on the Malachite recurve bow, many more models followed soon that not only look like them, but were also given the name of several special gemstones.

New traditional ILF recurve bows by Jackalope Archery
With the new Moonstone and Malachite ILF risers of 2019, Jackalope extends its comprehensive product range by two modern ILF risers with traditional looks. Innovative dymond wood, which is a very durable compound of several layers of wood and epoxy, absorbes vibration optimally and therefore allows for shots without handshock. Furthermore, thanks to the ILF system, you can pick from any other of your favourite ILF limbs, so in this case you have the agony of choice.
Simple beauty or fresh green?
You like to keep it simple and want to shine with classical elegance at the parcours? Then the new Moonstone ILF Take Down is the right choice for you. Its 50 Shades of Grey make the dymond wood grain shine through in a fascinating way. Its eponym moonstone helps to get rid of emotional tensions, relieve yourself from fear and enhances your intuition and determination - it is the lucky stone of June.
Or maybe a bit more colour? Then get yourself the new Malachite riser, whose intensive tones of green are a carbon copy of the malachite gemstone as opposed to the model of last year with two colours. The 2019 malachite ILF riser namely shines in just one intense, fresh green this year. Due to this exciting look, it distinguishes itself noticably from other traditional bows and curious looks from fellow archers will certainly be a sure thing.
Limb diversity is the name of the game
The ILF system of the new risers lets you have the agony of choice when choosing your favourite limbs. Of course, Jackalope also offers fitting ILF limbs, which are made of black fiberglass as the laminate as well as a core of high-quality acorn- and makore wood and offer high stability, exceptional performance and a broad selection from bow lengths and draw weights. With the Jackalope limbs, you can shoot both models with a draw weight of up to 46 lbs and the new Jackalope Hunter limbs that just consist of acorn and fiberglass, with a draw weight of even up to 60 lbs. The standardized system, however, does of course allow for unlimited use of any other ILF limbs of different manufacturers - as said, you have the agony of choice!
You can get both ILF models for an introductory price of €249.99 instead of €299.98 and separate risers for €199.99.
JACKALOPE Onyx - breathtakingly beautiful precision
With the Onyx, the Jackalope series now has a new, extraordinary member: A distinct competition bow with interesting contrasts and impressive characteristics. When developing the Onyx, optimal performance in competitions was the name of the game.
Its inimitable precision, shock-absorption and exceptional arrow speed is achieved by the combination of natural woods and high-tech materials like bamboo, palisander, carbon and teknowood, which also is very rich of contrasts optically.
The riser is made of naturally-grown hard palisander and shock-absorbing teknowood, which are then bordered by high-quality bamboo that goes all the way up to the tips. Furthermore, unilateral carbon and powerglass laminate allow for maximum performance and highest arrow speeds of up to 230fps. It goes without saying that the Onyx is suited for fast-flight strings. Visually, the black and white teknowood details (based on the wide range of colours of the chalcedon, a conspecies of the onyx) lend the bow a fresh appearance, while the decorative palisander grain remains its natural look.
The eponymous protection- and powerstone onyx is said to help build up emotional and physical strength. The onyx protects you from negativity and fear according to an ancient Japanese wise saying: "Fear does only go as deep as our spirit allows".
Since antiquity, the onyx is said to strengthen the intuition as well as the senses and who does not want one´s demeanor to be more focussed and confident in tournaments or on the parcours? Conventions assure that whoever believed in one´s onyx, achieved everything one wanted to achieve. There could not possibly be a better eponym for this breathtaking bow.
Whether you opt for an IFAA competition-compliant, 68" long- or 64" hybrid bow or maybe rather for the 62" one piece recurve bow between 30 and 50 lbs - the Onyx is convincing in every version. On top of that, it is also available as a 15-23" riser and thereby you can combine it with your favourite ILF limbs. Of course you also have access to the 30 years warranty for Jackalope products after registering your Onyx.
NEU: Zircon ILF Wurfarme - Jetzt mit Carbon und Foam
Kann man ein hochwertiges Produkt immer noch ein Stück besser machen? JACKALOPE ARCHERY kann! Konsequente Weiterentwicklung und der stetige Wissenstransfer aus dem Bau der Competition Wurfarme von Bloodstone und Onyx münden nun in einer neuen Serie von Wurfarmen für den JACKALOPE Zircon sowie die anderen ILF Griffstücke aus dem Hause JACKALOPE und weiterer Hersteller.
Das "ILF" im Namen der Wurfarme steht schließlich für das International Limb Fitting System - kurz: ILF-System -, welches sie als Steckwurfarme kennzeichnet und universell macht. Denn beim ILF-System werden die Wurfarme nicht am Mittelstück angeschraubt, sondern nur in die entsprechenden Halterungen gesteckt. Die Aufnahmen sind dabei genormt und gewährleisten, dass die Wurfarme mit allen ILF Mittelstücken verwendet werden können.
ILF Wurfarm Zircon BAMBOO
Traditionell und ILF? Bei Jackalope Archery schließen sich diese zwei Punkte sicher nicht gegenseitig aus. Die meisten ihrer Mittelstücke werden auch in einer ILF-Variante angeboten. Gab es bislang nur passende Wurfarme in schwarz oder mattschwarz, kommen nun die neuen Wurfarme mit Bambus-Finish. Die Bamboo Wurfarme bieten dir die bewährte Qualität der bekannten Zircon Wurfarme. Sie sind die perfekten Wurfarme für Bogensporteinsteiger. Das hochwertige Bambus sorgt für gute Stabilität und hervorragende Wurfleistung.
Durch das gelungene Holzfinish passen sie optisch nun aber noch viel besser zu den traditionellen Holzgriffstücken mit ILF-Wurfarmaufnahme von JACKALOPE Archery. Und auch in Kombination mit dem sportlichen Zircon-Mittelstück machen die Wurfarme eine gute Kombination, die mit dem Kontrast von Sportbogen und traditionellem Bogenschießen spielt und mit Konventionen bricht.
ILF Wurfarm Zircon FOAM
Du willst deinen ILF Bogen auf das nächste Level bringen? Mit den neuen Foam Wurfarmen gelingt Jackalope Archery genau das. Leichte Materialien und eine hohe Expertise im Wurfarmbau flossen in die Entwicklung eines Wurfarms, der bei gleicher Geschwindigkeit eine verbesserte Auszugskurve aufweist.
Das "Geheimnis" ist der Schaumstoffkern, der für einen weicheren Auszug und eine deutlich bessere Verwindungssteifigkeit sorgt. Damit punkten die neuen Foam Wurfarme in der Kategorie Komfort enorm.
ILF Wurfarm Zircon CARBON FOAM
Erfolg erfordert Präzision und Hingabe. Die Carbon/Foam Wurfarme bieten alles, was des ambitionierten Schützen Herz begehrt: Leichte Foam-Wurfarme werden mit Sichtcarbon zu einem verwindungssteifen und schnellen Wurfarm kombiniert.
Dank dieser Werkstoffverbindung bekommst du einen leichten Wurfarm, der deinen Bogen noch stabiler und beständiger im Schußverhalten macht. Damit gewinnst du mehr Genauigkeit, die dich beim Training und im Wettkampf das entscheidende Stückchen nach vorn bringt.
