The Tartars, originated from East Asia. Their Language was Turkic in origin. Around the 12th and 13th centuries the Tartars came to dominate most of Russia and were dubbed the “Golden Horde” by the Russian people.

Their empire dissolved as the Russians and the Turks became more dominant in the 15th Century.

The Tatar bow is the newest design from Istvan Toth. It is compact, sleek and fast. The Tatar bow measures 53" unstrung and 50" strung and is comparable to the Mongolian's speed. The Tatar has a smooth draw and a unique syha design. Constructed with fiberglass limbs, ash syhas (with lamination at tips of wood or horn), leather limb cover and stitching. Combined, all these elements add to the graceful aesthetic qualities of this finely crafted bow.
