Kaiyuan Laminated Bow

by Mariner

Mariner, is widely regarded as one of the best premium brands of laminated, hand crafted Chinese bows in the world.

In collaboration with Caroline Armory, Lost Arts Archery is bringing Mariner to South Africa!

The Kaiyuan bow is part of the Dashao or Large-Ear bow (大稍弓) genre of Ming Dynasty (1368--1644 AD) bow design. Its defining characteristics are its deep brace height, sharply double-bent ears, and flared string notch. This is a smooth and stable design that enjoys hurling medium-heavy arrows (in the 11--12 grains-per-pound range).


Your bow is pre-quality checked in South Africa by Lost Arts Archery, before it is shipped to your door. 

How to roughly estimate your Ming military style draw length: 1/2 arm span minus 2 to 3"

*Please unstring the bow if not in use, or it may loose draw weight.
