BLS
Flexibility
The BLS allows you to be permanently flexible. If you want to improve or change, you don't have to buy a new bow. You can easily replace the individual parts.
BLS
Individuality
Another advantage is that you can put together the BLS bow individually. You can choose between 52 different middle parts (materials and colors) and matching limbs. Each bow can be pulled out as soft as butter.
BLS
Transport
Are you traveling a lot? You can assemble your BLS bow at any time and store it in a bag. Even on a longer trip in the car, it takes up less space.
FAQ
BLS
What is BLS?
BLS = BEARPAW LIMB SYSTEM.
What is behind the BLS?
Behind this is a closed take down system, which allows you as a customer high quality and variability.
Can I combine old Mohawk products with the new BLS?
Yes! You can combine old middle parts with the new BEARPAW Limbs. Furthermore, old limbs can also be combined with the new BLS middle parts - see exception below.
Are there any exceptions when combining old Mohawks & the BLS?
