Fantastic bows! Beautiful looks and — above all — outstanding performance

I know Filippo Donadoni not only as a friend and craftsman, but as one of the few bowyers who manages to combine tradition, innovation and technical research.
I’m lucky enough to own three of his bows, and I can say each one is a unique piece. The build quality is impeccable: carefully selected wood, top-level finishes, and an attention to detail you can feel from the very first touch.
But what really stands out is how they perform in the field. Thanks to careful mass distribution — with weights built into the riser — and extremely light, precisely tuned limbs, the bows are incredibly stable to shoot. It feels like a bow that stays “still”, forgives a lot, and gives you great confidence.
This design also makes it possible to use light arrows with high spine values, achieving speeds that are truly surprising for a traditional bow, without sacrificing smoothness, precision or shooting comfort.
Behind every bow you can sense decades of experience, experimentation and genuine passion. Filippo doesn’t just make bows: he builds top-level instruments capable of stirring real emotion and satisfying both beginners and the most demanding competitive archers.
To me, they represent the perfect balance of elegance, innovation and performance.
