Traditional Turkish hand painted recurve bow G/454
Preferred by Turkish archers worldwide, and especially in Turkey, the Grózer Turkish bow is a reliable composite. The shape of the bow comes from the 10th century and based on archaeological grave-findings. The Grózer Turkish bow has a full genuine leather coverage.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE COMPOSITE RECURVE HORN-BOW
THE BOW AND ARROW WERE AMONGST THE FIRST WEAPONS USED BY HUMANITY. ONLY INFERENCES CAN BE MADE REGARDING THE EVOLUTION OF THE BOW AS ITS ORIGINS DATE SO FAR BACK IN HISTORY. A SURPRISINGLY DEVELOPED FORM OF THE BOW AND ARROW IS PERPETUATED IN THE LATE PALAEOLITHIC CAVE DRAWINGS OF SPAIN AND THE SOUTH OF FRANCE. THUS WE HAVE GOOD REASON TO BELIEVE THAT THIS FORM IS THE RESULT OF A LONG EVOLUTIONARY PROCEDURE WHICH TOOK PLACE DURING THE PALAEOLITHIC.

THE SCYTHIANS
IN ONE OF THE HIGH RELIEFS FOUND IN AN ASSYRIAN ROYAL PALACE, WE CAN SEE HORSEMEN CHASING THREE RIDERS DRESSED IN OUTLANDISH GARMENTS. THE SPECIALIST ARCHAEOLOGICAL LITERATURE IDENTIFIES TECHNICAL DETAILS THAT TELL US THAT THESE RIDERS ARE SCYTHIAN WARRIORS. THEIR WEAPONRY CONSISTS OF A SHORT SPEAR, AND A DAGGER-LIKE CUT AND THRUST SWORD (AKHINAKES), TOGETHER WITH THE EXPECTED BOW AND ARROW. THE BOWS ARE FAIRLY SMALL AND SHORT, THEIR SHAPE IS TRIANGULAR, AND ON EITHER SIDE OF THE GRIP THERE IS NO SIGN OF THE TYPICAL CURVE, WHICH IS HIGHLY…

PRACTISING THE ART OF ARCHERY FIGHTING
THE SKILL OF BATTLING ON HORSEBACK REQUIRED CONSTANT PRACTICE. ONLY THOSE WHO HAD ACQUIRED THEIR RIDING SKILLS AS A CHILD, AND HAD SPENT MOST OF THEIR LIVES ON HORSEBACK, COULD REMAIN IN THE SADDLE TIRELESSLY, FOLLOWING TRACKLESS PATHS FOR HOURS AND HOURS, AND ONLY THOSE WITH EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE WERE ABLE TO KEEP THEIR HORSES UNDER CONTROL IN TAUTSITUATIONS. THEREFORE THE USE OF WEAPONS ON HORSEBACK, ESPECIALLY DRAWING THE ARROW AND TAKING AIM, DEMANDED CONTINUOUS PRACTISE. Chinese historians recorded that the Hun used to teach their children how to ride on…

THE BONE TIP BOW
BOWS WITH BONE-TIPS HADN’T BEEN BURIED IN THE GRAVES OF THE SCYTHIAN ERA NOR IN EUROPE NEITHER IN ASIA. THIS CHANGED, HOWEVER, AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CHRISTIAN ERA, AROUND THE DAWN OF THE 1ST CENTURY. IN THE NORTHERN TERRITORIES OF TODAY’S MONGOLIA, AND TO THE WEST FROM THE LAKE BAIKAL, ‘TABLE-TOMPS’ (GRAVES COVERED BY STONE-TILES) WERE FREQUENT, WHICH, ACCORDING TO THE ARCHAEOLOGIST, DATE BACK TO THE 3RD—2ND CENTURY BC. THEY ARE CONSIDERED TO BE THE EARLIEST RECORDS OF THE ASIAN CUMANS. IT WAS FROM THESE GRAVES THAT THE EARLIEST…

MAKING OF THE BOW: THE STRING PAD
WHEN IN THE 16TH CENTURY AD MANCHURIAN WARRIORS ATTACKED CHINA THEY WERE ARMED WITH HIGHER QUALITY AND MORE EFFECTIVE BOWS THAN THEIR ADVERSARIES. SIX CENTURIES EARLIER, IN THE TIME OF THE MONGOLS, THE SOUTHERN TERRITORIES OF MANCHURIA WERE FAMOUS FOR THEIR ARROW-MAKING INDUSTRY. IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN DUE TO THE OUTSTANDING CRAFTSMANSHIP TRADITIONS THAT DURING THIS ERA THE MANCHURIANS WERE ABLE TO DEVELOP A SLIGHT INNOVATION IN THE BOW THAT WOULD RENDER AIMING SIGNIFICANTLY MORE ACCURATE, THE MANCHURIAN STRING-PAD. The Manchurian-type recurve bow was equipped with a string pad underneath…
