Hanson Hanging Bow Scale

Hanson Bow Scale, originally called a Viking Jr model, is used to check the draw and holding weight on compound & recurve bows. A must in every archer's home, in pro shops and at clubs, this hanging scale is the quickest, most accurate way to measure draw weight.

Scale has top and bottom hooks, with a heavy duty, "S" hook for safe hanging and the calibration screw ensures lasting accuracy. Just hang the scale from a sturdy location, place your bow string over "J" hook and pull down.
