Structurally speaking Moxican is a take down, recurve bow (three-part Deverika infografika
recurve fiberglass composite laminated bow) with the flemish style string. It
Babuka infografika
comes in draw forces from 30 to 50 pounds in ranges from 5 pounds. This
solved the problem of selection by customers, because this range will suit
the vast majority of users. The bow is 60 inches long which is one of the
shorter and more oriented hunting bows. Riser is long 19 inch (48cm) and Facebook Strana
is constructed of gray-black action wood with a cross-section of the arc set
laminate ash and exotic bubinga wood. Action wood lams with bely side (to
archer) are mounted longitudinally (looking from the up- vertically) so that
the laminates are in the direction that provides maximum resistance to Pecanje kao odmor za ivce

bending and gives firmness handle. The core is as we said of the arc set a
laminate structure which provides improved toughness and action wood on
back side (away from the archer) viewed from the above set crosswise ie.
horizontally which allows defined stress. The string is standard on all
Bearpaw bows and carries the name Whisper String and is made in flemish
style of the three types of materials. There are ten strands in it what is
Bearpaw standard number of strands for this force.

Evolution or face lifting.

The model we received is the successor to a previous model called Hard


Hunter. Sales results made possible further developt of successor who was
promoted to several segments compared to its older brother.
One of the most visible changes is the use of action wood in the riser
instead of a hard wood that has been used before. Setting up limbs to grip
this time was done on a much smoother manner and without those bumpy
head screws that have somehow become recognizable at cheaper class
bows. These changes have brought some minor changes in aesthetic
terms but also in terms of performance as we will explained later in the
text. The new model has slightly less aggressive limbs and can be seen
only when directly compared with the old model limbs. This gives a slightly
different picture in a chart that shows the slope of the draw power curve.
The new model is more balanced whic is also a good adventage.

TESTING

The first sunny weekend we used to test and what we are as always do
divided into ten segments, each one carries ten points. Total 100 points
that can be achieved by giving us a general judgment about how much the
bow covering all the most important characteristics that we test.

1 The appearance, design, overall appearance, identity card of the bow.


2 finish, quality of the materials.
3 characteristics (strength, length, speed) how in practice coincides with
what the factory claims.
4 Handle (ergonomics, the feel of pulling, releasing, how sensitive to tork
is.
5 The feeling in the draw proces.
6 Vibration, sound after release.
7 String (quality, sound, stretching ...)
8 Speed achieved with the appropriate arrows.
9 Accuracy (forgivnes at user errors).
10 Value of quality per money.

When you first open a package with a long waited bow first connection is
about to come is while you estimate appearnace. If the bow show up even
more eye catching then you expect we instantly fall in love with. But when
it's not then disappointment come.

When I first saw Moxican Instantly I am become accustomed to the bow.

This is the moment of which we reporters must be watch out, because my


job is to make a real assessment of this product, which afther that will be
very difficult.
The handle of the bow is very well designed, have a massive look, where
it's need to be a rustic and also sleek, where necessary. Contrast of colors
of bubunga and ash wood with dark gray-black action wood-immediately
attracts attention. Appealing contour with a soothing arcuate line gives the
impression of harmony. The limbs also accompany this style with a black
matte finish and ash fiberglass laminates provide full contrast. What does
not follow this fund is a savings in working hours, which is reflected in the
fact that the riser excellent processed where necessary (handles, arrow
shelf) while the lack of such processing falls under the metal spokes,
processing holes in double holded nuts, sharp corners of the site window
....

Take what you will, but this assessed as poor would not be fair because
this is the bow that is one of the initial models for adults but it's price tag
indicates that you can not expect perfection from him. What I brought here
as a conclusion that the Bearpaw offered his superior skill and decades of
experience where necessary to the bow in order to functioned perfectly. He
gave us the opportunity for a small price to enjoy all that experience as
good as it was a top model .... Correct me if I'm wrong.

Recessed Allen as standard! Although by competitors still present bumpy


screw that gives a bow a low class look the appeal of the Mohicans is not
the case because you'll easily replaced this bow for some higher class
bow.
Processing of lims is perfect, edge fiber uniformly lowered, the corners of
limbs, compounding the wedge in the limbs with ash and fiber laminates is
perfect and there will not yield to failure. I as a bowyer can guarantee to
you. The joijning of limbs and riser is also excellent as it is not the case
with metal inserts where the limbs gets its lateral stability. This reign is not
perfect. There is a certain tolerancu where should not be present. Nothing
dramatic but ... But black matt finish of metal inserts gives aristocratic look.
Great stuff is that limbs has tip owerlayers from micarta which is great
because it allows the use of modern srtings that has little or no stretch, and
not at all gentle to a limb tips. This is also a characteristic of much serious
bows.

However micarta processing at the top of the limbs with the channels for
the string is not as accurate. We returned to the same conclusion, where
usability is at stake or the working hours are It's not perfect but there is
where problems stops.
The string is something that will regardless of the objectivity described from
the heart. In one word perfect !!! All the company Bearpaw bows are
equipped with whisper strings. They claim very seriously that they are
superior to the competition. This statement are prowe itself through testing
confirmed several times. The look is perfect, each thread in its place, even
the ends of the exit filaments are not visible. They did not cut even see
traces of burning, are just seems to glued to the string and do not see it
until we unravel the entire string. Serving is perfectly round, properly
positioned. Score of the first test despite of a few shortcomes is 8.5 points.

The second test is the quality of treatment-finishing, and quality of the


materials used. Action wood is a rarity in some way. Particular in Europe. It
was used in the handle. Quality material from wood laminate pressed
under high temperature in the resin. Thus processed wood has become
insensitive to moisture, worms, uv radiation. He also became very strong

From more than expected http://zanimljiv.org/index.php/2-uncategorised/158-from-more-than-ex...

and resistant to mechanical stress. On the look and feel it has the old feling
of touching the wood what we traditional archers love very much.
Laminates ash and bubunga give except contrasting line that intersects the
riser in two parts, the required elasticity and exotic. Action wood laminates
are set at an angle of ninety degrees all together give a very sturdy and
resistant riser. A platform for both, those less or for very strong limbs. Metal
inserts carrying limbs are fastened with three screws, correctly processed
with excellent finish in black matt finish. Closure has already been
mentioned done with countersunk allen highest quality bolts which can be
screwed into double nuts glued and screwed deep into the riser. Massive
and reliable solution. The limbs are made of black Bodnik fiberglass
laminate. Thickness of 1mm, which has long been known as a very reliable
material, laminated ash guarantee forgiveness of mistakes and longevity
life of the limbs. The string of the FF (fast flight) and two other types of
matterials of trusted manufacturers masterfully twisted and optimally
evaluated in terms of the number of threads with the power of bow. Rating
for this segment of testing is very high eights (8). What aparts of the
assessment is the plastic cartridge into the limbs through which allen takes
pressure to the bracket and contact the fiberglass part of the limbs directly
to the metal plate. These are not the happiest solution.

The third segment is the beginning of serious consideration. Match the


characteristics of the bow with the factory data. 45 # @ 28 "60" We'll go in
that order. Bow on AMO scale showed 46.7 # which belongs to the exact
data. Plus minus 2 pounds is normal tolerance because it is a composite
that has a wood in it and that as a natural material and therefore can never
be 100% the same. In contrast, the total length of the bow is rounded up to
look around, because otherwise we get the measurement result. From
nock to nock 55.5 "peak to peak 56.3" and when we measured across the
stomach-bely (side to archer), we get 59 ". Also according to AMO
standard 3 inch added to string lenght also do not mach correctly with 60
inch. So this information is incorrect. Not so big deal becose company
round that numbers according to easiest categorisation. Weight of the bow
in total is 1160 g, and it is one of the few weight bows as a result of the use
of action wood and metal inserts of the limbs holders. As an example, I will
mention that my bows is lighter than 1kg. The limbs weight is 350g which is
given by the use of ash which is not an easiest. Easy as much as we can
when it comes to producing the limbs must be an imperative. But when you
need to produce more releable then super fast or smooth bow for beginers
you need to consider way more diferently. However I will also personally
decided this type of wood because the ash limbs will be granted to forgive
the mistakes that every beginner have. Riser has a 27mm deflection ratio,
and the riser depest point in the grip is distanced from arrow shelf 28mm
which is optimally done. All in all the most important data such as draw
weight at a certain draw lenght, the number of threads in a string, the type
of material and the wood is completely consistent with the factory data,
apart from the overall length of the bow. The rating is therefore (8) eight.

The fourth test is the test of ergonomics of the handle, overall ergonomics,
feeling the handle while drawing the bow .... In short, grip is one of the
most important parts of the bow, from the grip directly depends precision,
comfort, a sense of vibration. It seems simple, but when you have a bad or
not properly sculptured grip so we fired a few arrows and feel the pain in
tendon or joint, at the same time at each shoot the bow is moved or hold it
so that it twists and tork in the hand. Arrow have some of the signs of false
flight and you will understand how necessary it is well constructed handle.
The full draw is felt as rights ergonomics and also in the process of
shooting . If you hold the the bow in full draw lenght and hold some 30

seconds or more and does not hurt you anywhere, it does not whiten any
part of the hand you may be on your way to choose a good grip. The great
challenge is to construct a universal grip that will all lie well in the hand.
Handle of the Mohican has fulfilled most of the requirements, is open, there
is no tork a hand is quickly and easy fits in it. Radius of a shape that is in
direct contact with hand means that the area between the thumb and index
finger is stretched and has a curve that is less steep in half part from the
middle to the index finger and sharper from middle to the thumb. This is an
excellent move because it follows the natural shape of the hand. The
cross-section and a view of the top reveals another good trait. The form of
droplets, whose is thicker between your thumb and indeks finger reduces
the possibility of twisting movement of the hand which is a big advantage.
It's a bit empty, unfilled in the middle of the palm with "sharp" edge at the
turn of the profiled part but that is all. Overall an excellent universal grip.
Unfortunately I do not fits 100% because I use high-grip but this can not be
considered by any defect. I rate handle eight and a half (8.5)

The fifth segment is one of the most important. The feeling trough the
drawing cucle. Is a smooth bow (do not mix this with how difficult or easy is
to pull the bow) nothing is crunching, creaking, or stacking. No twisting at
all. Many important details in a short process. How much is hard to be
objective here is the fact that the same bow pulling by two completely
different people can be graduated completly oposite. That's why I'm use
the chart and the feeling associated with experience. What you feel when
drawing the bow, and also by measuring and entering data into the
program get an accurate picture of which is formed by pure physics. What
do we say about this graph, the force draw curwe? The curve compare the
length of the draw to a draw weight ? As you can see the bow in the initial
phase has a great tension before (preload), which shows that already in
the beginning quickly raises the strength and raises the level of potential
energy packed in the overall process. This was later positively identified
with the total potential energy of the bow and its efficiency ie. the success
of the structure. As we approach the midle range of the drawing cicle so
the income of power decreases with each passing inch which gives a
feeling of smoothness while the owerall power continues to grow.
Somewhere in the 26 inch that balances the flow of power and then slowly
rises with each successive Incom which indicates that the bow increases
the flow of power with each successive income. In order not to put you in a
situation where we do not understand each other the total power of the
bow naturally increases with each inch

But how many for each inch? If, for example. between 15 and 16 inches
strength increased by 2 pounds and between 16 and 17 inches incrise for
2.2 pounds then his strength increases with increasing rate in every inch.
The other way around if it decreases with decreasing certain rate on every
inch of course while total power constantly growing. After the
aforementioned 26-inch power began to grow with the increasing rate in
certain relations. In the beginning it is very mild, slovely rasing with an
incrising rate by the 30 inches is no question of stacking (the phenomenon
when you feel that the bow becomes tough and very difficult for a further
draw in which the limbs can not hold to much more). In other words the
storing energy is incrised rapidly in every aditional inch of draw. Although
the Bearpaw company tests his limbs to an incredible 40 inches of draw
and they still do not break. This is data that serves only as a guarantee of
quality and not as a possibility to use a bow because after 32-33 inches is
certainly not a pleasant to pull him away and especially not easy because
the stack then have a maximal rate.

Anyway energy generated (an area which is "collected" under the curve) is

5 of 9 29.1.2017 20:18
From more than expected http://zanimljiv.org/index.php/2-uncategorised/158-from-more-than-ex...

not a naive, that is credited to good engineering. So the feeling is very


pleasant, there is no possibility of a stack, structure and limbs are optimally
utilized. I must admit that I especially liked the feeling of preload where the
limbs immediately shows his teeth as we speak, and that the results of
speed to be worthwhile. Precisely because this is the maximum energy that
limbs can produce at a high level. Also feeling of smoothness in the final
inches of draw cucle for this class of bow is excellent. Consistency is the
thing that not so many bowyers taken into account and in my opinion is
very important and must be included in the test. About consistency in fact, I
developed a special method that compares bows in this test. When I draw
the bow to 28" determined by AMO standard at the time of achieving full
draw measured power is recorded. From that moment running for one
minute during which time is measured force starts to decline as it comes to
fatigue. After the expiry of the one-minute power is re-recorded and the
difference can be expressed as a percentage. Anything below one percent
is an excellent result and negligible for the operation of bow. Moxican this
test taken almost perfectly. For one minute at full draw lost only .2 pounds
or one-fifth of a pound. Expressed in grams that is 90,4g which is much
less than 1% of the total power. This is a testament to how powerful and
durable fiberglass material is for this purpose, and certainly the proof of
quality of Bodnk unidirection fiber. While stressing there is absolutely no
sound, it is completely dead and silent, overall general assessment of the
eight (8) and the only reason why ranks is no higher is too early matching
the inflow of power to the hair line on the graph in 26th. inch. The same
design without any special changes and increase of price could offer even
better! For some more potential energy at full draw. In order to understand
this, in practice none will feel the diference but charts comparing sence
these small gaps and separates him from the perfect curve.

The sixth test is right next to the most important, bow behavior after
shooting the arrow. It goes without saying that I used in the test adequate
arrow by spine and weigth. The first try did not show its full potential, it is
understandable that I should get used to the new bow. Searching for
adequate brace high, streching the string itself, noking point etc. In the
beginning, noisy with the vibrations, afther finding sweat spot and adding
wool buffer to the string the bow was transformed in a very quiet and
peaceful instrument. Comparing it with those first couple of arrows honestly
did not expect this much progress. Biting and abrupt, stable in terms of
twisting. Arrows fired from it fly right as lightning you could say. This is
proof that the bow transfered a large part of its potential energy to arrow,
also speaks that is efficient (this is of course possible only if you have
adequate arrows). Vibration and noise naturally has been reduced to an
acceptable level for this construction of bow. I have notice no hand shock,
only if I focus directly on this issue feel that it has. The explosion of energy
leaves its mark and it is impossible to go without it. Moxcan show this only
if we think about. The sound you hear is just as a quick whiz while
accelerating the string trough air, after which buffers do their job.
Rezidential vibration stays, about a second or two after shooting, very low
frekfencies completely harmless to bow it is only witness a violent reactions
played a split second before. My bows are quieter and with less vibration
but they are custom products, and would not be good if they are not better
of mass production product.

Do not forget to say it. It has a positive bow tiler but only 3.5 mm which I
think is a little bit smaller for that kind of range of the deepest points and
shelves for split finger shot. What I'm saying is.... For the annulment of the
forces that are produced due to the unequal length of the string above and
below the hands need a little more positive tiler. The problem particularly

6 of 9 29.1.2017 20:18
From more than expected http://zanimljiv.org/index.php/2-uncategorised/158-from-more-than-ex...

comes to the surface when we add the fact that bow does not have a high
grip and the support point moves further towards the handle and thus
further increases the range of pivot point and arrow shelf. An adequate
assessment would be seven and a half (7.5) because of this segment
depends the sustainability of bow, fatigue and load that suffers as one of
the most important qualities to be considered at that way .

Seventh test concerns the string. Much noise has been around about the
advertising of famous whisper string. There are so many thing went away
that Mr. Henry Bodnik sent his string in the laboratory where professionals
with sound equipment recorded sound and vibration plotted all compared
with other producers. Three types of modern polymer filament masterfully
involved in flemish style with added reinforcements to make the loops of
the whisper string. It works great on the tips of the bow, which I tested, but I
tried it on my own bow too. My bow is shorter by 1.5 inches, and I twisted a
string a few extra spin in order to shorten it to the required length. I already
mentioned that I am amazed that this string comes with a bow, which is
one of the entrance mass production bow. But what happened when I fired
a shot with my bow frozen me. Bow has become much quieter. In the true
sense of the word. Bow that I used with two collored dacron thicker string
by all phusic laws should have been a quieter then with whisper string
which is consist of the two collored string even thinner but with much much
less strechable fast flight material. In addition to all my experience,
completely sure of what will happen, exactly the opposite happened. A few
arrows to be sure and score ten (10) is 100% justified. Whisper string really
justified its name !!!

The eighth test is my favorite. If you do not have enough time to testing
the bow for seweral weeks just measured the speed. This information is
not the most important of all. But from the beginning, when the bow is still
on paper, to the first finished model speed reflects fully the overall
efficiency of the structure and relationship of investment and surrendered.
The success of the project is seen in one microsecond when arrow flashed
through the chronometer. For the test I used Gold Tip arrows, model
ttaditional. Carbon arrows are valid for the Golf second generation among
arrows, durable and reliable to the hi limits. Spine 400, 8.6 gr. per inch, tips
120gr weight. All together 400grains. Translated to grams which is about
25g. Several series with an average speed slightly and then assembled
while the average divided by the number of average and we got the
arithmetic mean value of the speed of 182fps. With a bow of 46 # to 28".
The best result was 188fps. Not a bad result for this optimized running
bow. The truth today bows of this design are able to achieved 230fps but
with price of 1500 euro.!!! Average is around 190 up to 220 and just over
it. But for the more expensive models from Bearpaw. I have to mention the
fact that one of my bows with (54#@28") scored 211fps with Endles ff
string. Like the fact that my bow with the string of the Mohicans, on
average, got the speed, exactly 8fps. In the dl. of 28 inches reaching
speeds of around 198fps. My first successful serious bow in this category,
that I made almost a decade ago by the 169fps with 43#@28" I considered
as great success. Do not get me wrong speed is not crucial, but tels a lot of
things about the bow. The estimate for the speed of the bow is(8), taking
into account that is consistent and vary slightly few feet up and down which
probably depends on my imperfect release.

The ninth test is difficult enforceable and willy-nilly I had to be subjective. It


requires much more time and fired arrows than I've had at their disposal
and could achieve. So take the result with a grain of salt, but I am very
pleased that feeling where I point the bow the arrows arrives. Without

7 of 9 29.1.2017 20:18
From more than expected http://zanimljiv.org/index.php/2-uncategorised/158-from-more-than-ex...

much practice using only prior experience fired a total of about 250 arrows
of which merely 50 used for testing vibration, speed, sense .... Arrows are
flown at the same angle, no sound, flight is stable has no twists, fish tails...
, no tork in the handle and precision is just the result of all these
characteristics. For precision I offer him special recognition because as a
bow to enter the archery can very easily refuse future archer if it's not good
especially in this segment. With the Mohicans it will not happen and you
will have only satisfied customers. Total score of nine (9) again taking into
account the class of the bow.

The tenth test is only a summary of the story more than the test statement
but it is important to say because the price is always the one that interests
us the most. Based on the foregoing so far we can easily conclude that the
quality, appearance, function is at a level that is more than sufficient for
recommending. Final obstacle now is just a price. According to catalog
data bow costs 178 euros. Truly, I was confused because for the average
or even below average cost of a bow will certainly hard to expect
characteristic of the bow above the average characteristics which in some
segments touches and excellent reviews. At the end, when we add the
ratings by all segments of the testing end result is 85 points out of a
possible 100 points.
If you ask me for a recommendation, I will not lie to you, and with peace of
mind I'll say YES. If you ask me what do I get if I buy and compare with the
competition? I'll tell you that he has no equal, competition is killed with a
ratio of price and quality and design. If you ask me for my personal opinion
this is the bow which moves the borders. General opinion that the initial
bow should be the bow that will teach the owner basics and you will be
taken after something more serious. This is a very serious bow that you will
not want to sell as soon as you learn the basics of archery because with
the development of your skills the bow will somewhat follow your
development and provide a much higher level of use than just basic. The
quality of which has surely not be able to inherit a younger or new beginner
will be able to use it in folloving years. Bearpaw has definitely taken a
stable leadersheep in Europe, it is very dedicated to the mission to turn
instinctive archery into a mass sport. Its mission is spreading to other
continents, manufacturing in several countries and a logistics
accompanying the idea. One fact they still stand out to such an extent that
it was impossible for them to compete with a courage that is aplay only with
a series archer like Mr. Bodnik is, is to provides 30 years of warranty for
Bodnik series of bows!!! Such courage and dedication gave birth to
Moxican, one of the best entrance models on the market that offers all the
experience and quality gained for years in an '' ordinary '' bow for
beginners.
In the name of Calibre Magazine and my self I thank Mr. Henry Bodnik and
his company Berpaw Product which seconded the bow and broadheads,
with joy we are waiting for the arrival of this great enthusiasts in Serbia to
the course of instinctive archery.
