Adaptable Mission platforms

Stryde or Stryde Lite?

Two versions of the Stryde platform built around different draw-weight needs, with room to fit the bow to the shooter instead of forcing the shooter into the bow.

The standard Stryde provides higher draw weights and two axle lengths. The Stryde Lite keeps the 28-inch platform and lowers the usable draw-weight range.

Standard draw-weight range

Why Stryde?

Choose the standard Stryde when the shooter needs 50-to-70-pound limbs, or when the longer 30.5-inch configuration provides the better fit and shooting geometry.

Lower draw-weight range

Why Stryde Lite?

The Lite uses the 28-inch platform with 30-to-50-pound limbs, giving developing and lower-poundage shooters a capable bow with room to grow.

Specifications are manufacturer ratings and vary by Stryde configuration. Willy can determine the correct axle length, draw length, and draw weight for the shooter.
