BLS

The BEARPAW LIMB SYSTEM

Starting with a 17" handle in 2014, the variance and technology of our worldwide appreciated Take Down MOHAWK has been continously developed further. Based on this successful system, we designed the 13" MOHAWK Hunter, which came with the same grip geometry (shelf elevation and center cut). Thus we created a short aggressive hunting bow, 56" and 58" recurve and 58" hybrid. We kept continuing our proven mounting pin and limb bolt system from previous generations. The challenge was to adjust the limbs angle in such a way that there is no difference in draw weight and tiller to the 17" handle. This was the first step towards the BLS: Everything must be perfectly combinable. We now offer more than 54 handles within this system, including the long awaited Big Bear.

Variability

Set up your very own bow: Choose one of more than 54 handcrafted handles (13"/17"/19") and different limbs that best Suit your needs: recurve short or long, or hybrid. No matter which MOHAWK handle is combined with any of our BLS limbs – the draw weight and the tiller always remain unchanged.
