Traditional Mongolian Horse Bow Inspired by the Legendary Steppe Warriors
The Mongol Recurve Bow is inspired by one of history’s most effective military bows—the legendary Mongolian horse bow used by the mounted warriors of the Mongol Empire. Renowned for its speed, power and efficiency, this traditional bow combines authentic historical design with modern materials to create a durable and reliable bow for today’s traditional archers.
Handcrafted from a combination of glass fiber, wood and leather, the Mongol Recurve Bow offers smooth shooting characteristics, excellent arrow speed and long-lasting performance. It is equally suited to traditional archery, horseback archery, instinctive shooting and recreational target practice.
Inspired by the Original Mongol Bow

This modern version preserves the characteristic shape of the traditional Mongolian bow while incorporating fiberglass technology for improved durability, consistent performance and easier maintenance.
