Dark Archer?
« on: September 10, 2007, 01:11:00 PM »
Anyone shoot a Dark Archer yet?  Saw a couple lefties in stock on the web site that would fit my pistol. No secret I'm a fan of shorter bows...

My wife is a big Double Bull Blind fan/user and figures it might be right peachy for me to add a Dark Archer to the rack...

I shot a Dark Archer about a month ago. I was impressed. Bow was smooth,quiet and accurate. I was shooting good groups almost immediately. For someone looking to buy a short bow for use in ground blinds, like the Double Bull or tree stands, where the quarters are tight, I would highly recommend the Dark Archer by Bob Lee Archery.

I shot the 54" Hunter witch is the same as the Dark Archer. The only difference I beleive is the hunter is not solid black. Great shooting bow, very impressed.

I have a 54" hunter, can't beat it in a blind.

Earl E.
I test fired one last July or August at the Chester shoot in Texas. I've got a 30" draw also.
The bow didn't have any stack that I could tell and I didn't feel any finger pinch at all. This was using a thick glove. The bow was smooth and pretty quick. I was shooting a good 20 yard group in no time even using arrows that were not matched for the bow. I plan to test shoot it again this summer at the same shoot. If the bow I shoot then performs the same as the one before, I'll probably buy it. It would be my first 'custom' bow.

LocDoc,
Did it have a big enough sight window to use an elevated rest?...

I believe it does. Do you cant your bow or shoot vertical? A slight cant on the bow would open up your sight window even using a elevated rest.
If you get one before I do, let me know how she shoots. I really wanted the one I shot, but the wife would have killed me!
