The bow is covered in leather.They have a very good price/value rate. The design comes from the 10th century and based on archeological grave-findings. The „Grózer” Turkish bow has a full genuine leather coverage. They have a very special design (see pictures), and when the string is not on the bow they form a real „C”, which will be bent in the other direction, and this provides quite dynamic attributes for theese bows
””C””- shape or bent forward arms
Briefly speaking I can say that with relatively soft materials like horn and sinew, the C-shape works better, but with stiffer materials such as the fiberglass, carbon, the bent forward arms are much better in case of a traditional recurve bow. There were bent forward arms bows among the old horn bows as well, where the handle angle was quite big, for example in the Avar, Hunnish types.
