One of the great things about traditional archery with a recurve bow is that it can be kept as simple as you wish while retaining the time-honoured elegance that can never be achieved by any compound bow. Plus with a recurve, you get 10 to 20 percent better performance than with a longbow of equal draw weight and draw length (shooting the same arrow, of course). The aesthetics of doing it the old way is undoubtedly the best explanation for the resurgence of traditional archery in the past few years and the primary reason that many accomplished bowhunters are hanging up their compounds and returning to the basics. Take-down bows retain all the traditions of the past but combined with the convenience of a compact package for travel and storage.
Those of us who appreciate the delight in shooting arrows accurately without the benefit of sights, fancy rests or anything but primal instinct will truly appreciate the joy of traditional shooting with a Deer Master Recurve.
The limbs and riser of the Deer Master are constructed from layers of hardwood in contrasting colours overlaid with a layer of black fibreglass laminate. NZAP have the Deer Master in 40, 45, 50, and 55 pound draw weights and in right or left hand. All sizes are not always in stock so it is best to ring or email for availability.
The Deer Master take down recurve bow is the perfect choice for the Bowhunter in Australia or new Zealand who is looking for good value in a moderately priced recurve. The Deer Master riser is laminated with dark walnut and lighter-coloured hardwood and at AMO 60 inches is suitable for anyone, beginner or expert, looking for value. The Deer Master makes an excellent entrance-level hunting or field-archery bow but is built to standards that will please anyone. Comes in right hand or left hand.
It's amazing how many of our customers who regularly hunt with compound bows are returning to traditional gear. For many it is the added challenge as hunting with a modern high-tech compound bow with all the bells and whistles can become nearly as easy as hunting with a rifle, if you are a highly skilled hunter, of course. To others hunting with traditional bow and arrow becomes a spiritual link with our most ancient forbears who had to hunt this way to survive.
