The Samick Sage Takedown Recurve Bow is a relatively inexpensive bow that is quite easy to set up and use whether you are an experienced archer or a newcomer to the sport. It is the perfect bow for any beginner who wants to learn and enjoy the pleasures of traditional archery. However, because of its beauty and durability, the Sage is also a favorite of seasoned shooters. Samick Sports designed this bow to help archers improve their shooting stance and accuracy with a durable bow that makes it easy to quickly learn proper shooting positions.
The Recurve Bow is 62 inches in length and can be oriented for either the right hand or the left. If you are new to archery, a right hand orientation means the bow is designed to be held with the left hand when pulling the string with the right hand (for right-handed people). Left hand orientation is for individuals who will be pulling with their left hand while holding the bow with their right hand. The recommended brace height is 7.25 to 8.25 inches which can easily be achieved in a standing position.
The limbs of the Samick Sage Bow are made out of extremely durable hard maple wood with black fiberglass fittings. The chance of these limbs twisting is very rare, so no limb straightening is necessary with normal usage by both novices and pros. It is designed as a takedown bow meaning it can be re-configured as your needs (and abilities) change. As a takedown bow, heavier or lighter limbs can be purchased separately and swapped when needed or desired in order to create a heavier or lighter bow. As an archer improves his or her skill level and pulling strength, different limbs can increase the difficulty level thus improving skill levels as training progresses.
