The Lotus II ring is inspired by the design mentioned in the Ming Dynasty’s Gao Ying archery manuals. Historically, it was used in the northern parts of China and Central Asia.
The ring features a long-lipped, guardless structure that elegantly mirrors the shape of lotus petals, giving it its name. Its aggressive curve allows for a smooth and efficient release, while the long lips provide enhanced protection for the thumb. This makes the Lotus ring ideal for archers familiar with the medium hook method, seeking a smooth release and optimal thumb protection.
Material: Brass
The brass version is known for its bright, golden appearance and excellent malleability. It’s more affordable and offers a brilliant, lustrous finish that remains attractive over time. Brass is also resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for both aesthetic appeal and practical use.
