Riser | JACKALOPE - Onyx - ILF - 15-23"
With the Onyx the JACKALOPE series gets a new, extraordinary member: a distinctive competition bow with impressive characteristics and interesting contrasts.
The grip area is composed of naturally grown rosewood and ultra-modern teknowood, giving it its unmistakable character. Rosewood makes up the core and is a heavy, hard wood, which, with its exceptionally decorative grain and warm colors, gives the riser something very natural. The black and white details are made of teknowood and make for a beautiful contrast.
The bows and risers are named after the Onyx, a strong protective and power stone. It is said to help build emotional and physical strength. The Onyx also protects against negativity and fear, according to an ancient Japanese saying: "Fear reaches only as deep as our mind allows it to."
Since ancient times, the Onyx has been said to strengthen intuition and enhance the senses. And who would not want to appear more focused and confident on the parcours or in competition? Tradition assures that those who firmly believe in their Onyx will achieve everything that they want to achieve. There can hardly be a better name for this breathtaking bow.
ILF – Maximum flexibility and unmatched performance combined!
JACKALOPE paid special attention to the fitting of the limbs on the Onyx riser. While traditional wooden risers usually only have the possibility of using special screw-type limbs, it is different in this case: The Onyx grip is equipped with an ILF system. ILF means "International Limb Fitting" system, which is a standardized mount where the limbs are not screwed to the riser but are simply pushed into place. The fitting block is something special and unique! Made of full metal (aluminium), it is not only extremely stable and precise, but also enables a precise and stable ILF mount on a wooden riser, which is in no way inferior to a metal riser.
The tiller is easy to adjust using the tiller screw, which, unlike other ILF mounts, has an additional ring to keep the limbs in place so that there is no play during adjustment when not under tension. Once the position of the optimal tiller has been found, this certain adjustment is fixed. Lateral adjustment of the limbs is now also much more precise and safer, as the screws are no longer built into the wood of the riser, but into the fitting. This means that overtightened screws in the wood are a thing of the past.
So, if you are looking for an ILF mount that offers the stability of a metal riser, then the ILF mount from JACKALOPE is without a doubt the ideal solution.

Als Zughand wird die Hand bezeichnet, welche die Sehne zieht. Das heißt, ein Rechtshandbogen wird in der linken Hand gehalten und mit der rechten Hand ausgezogen.
Die Bestimmung der persönlichen Zughand hat weitaus weniger damit zu tun, ob man Links- oder Rechtshänder ist, als man anfänglich annehmen mag. Es geht vielmehr darum, das dominante Auge zu bestimmen. Mit dem dominanten Auge wird gezielt. Dadurch ergibt sich dann automatisch die Zughand.
Unter dem Begriff des dominanten Auges versteht man das Auge, dessen Sehinformationen alles überlagert. Würde ein Schütze versuchen, mit dem anderen Auge zu zielen, müsste er das dominante Auge zukneifen.
Zur Bestimmung des dominanten Auges gibt es zwei Möglichkeiten: Zum Einen ist es das Auge, dem generell der Vorzug gegeben wird, beispielsweise beim Blick durch den Sucher einer Kamera, durch den Türspion oder ähnlichen Situationen. Zum Anderen gibt es eine kleine Übung, mit der sich das dominante Auge zweifelsfrei bestimmen lässt:
- Die Arme werden ausgestreckt und mit Daumen und Zeigefingern beider Hände ein Dreieck gebildet.
- Durch das Dreieck wird ein kleines Ziel anvisiert, beispielsweise eine Steckdose oder ein Schrankknauf. Dieses Objekt wird fokussiert.
- Die Hände werden jetzt langsam zum Gesicht geführt, ohne, dass das Zielobjekt aus dem Fokus genommen wird.
- Das Dreieck aus Daumen und Zeigefingern wird unwillkürlich zu einer Gesichtshälfte tendieren und in dieser liegt auch das dominante Auge.
Sollten Dominanz von Auge und Hand nicht übereinstimmen, sollte der Bogen trotzdem nach Augendominanz ausgewählt werden. Die Arme lassen sich problemlos auf die neue Zughand umtrainieren, das Auge nicht.
