IMPI Bow

IMPI Bow

The Impi Bow (meaning “warrior”) is a hybrid design that merges the best qualities of a longbow and a recurve, delivering a fast, smooth, and reliable performance for archers of all levels.

Reflex D-flex long bow

Taking its name from the Zulu word for “warrior,” the Impi Bow represents power, agility, and adaptability. This reflex-deflex hybrid draws inspiration from both longbow and recurve principles to offer enhanced arrow speed, reduced hand shock, and a comfortable draw cycle. Crafted with bamboo cores and finished with unidirectional fibreglass, the Impi stands out for its quiet release and remarkable accuracy. It’s an excellent choice for those who love the traditional aesthetics of a longbow but appreciate the performance edge of a recurve.

Key Features

  • Hybrid Design: Combines longbow stability with recurve-like speed

  • Bamboo-Core Limbs: Delivers consistent performance shot after shot

  • Reduced Hand Shock: Enjoy a smoother draw and quieter release

  • Versatile Use: Equally suited for target shooting or bowhunting

Brace Height

What is brace height?
Brace height is the distance between the throat of your grip and your string.

What should your brace height be set at?
It should be set between 7 1/2 and 8 inches.

A Shorter Brace Height will result in a more aggressive , faster shooting and less forgiving shot.
A Higher Brace Height will result in a more forgiving, less aggressive shot.

Steps to check & adjust height on a traditional bow:

  1. Measure the distance from the throat of your grip to the string (It should be set between 7 1/2 and 8 inches).
  2. Use a Stringer to unstring your bows (it it needs adjusting).
  3. Twist the end of your string counter clockwise to increase the distance, or make it higher.
  4. Twist the end of your string clockwise to decrease the distance, or make it lower.
  5. String your bow back up and check the brace height again.
  6. Repeat until you achieve your desired brace height.
