ARCHERY RESEACH BOWS
Anyone had a chance to shoot the new AR bows? I went down to the local shop and shot the new AR34. It was set up with just a Quicktune drop away rest, 4" doinker and the manufactures string leaches. It has a very smooth draw and a rock solid wall. This thing is dead quiet when shot, but the vibration was a bit harsh in my opinion. I know it was not the set up because everything was tight. The only thing I could think of is how much vibration will the limb savers suck up? If that takes care of the vibration this will be a very nice bow.

I did not get a chance to chrono the bow. I may stop back today or tomorrow and see if he has had a chance to chrono it.
Our local shop will be selling them for $599. I believe that only comes with the string leaches, and no limb savers, so you can tack on another $25 or so.

When I saw them at the ATA show I thought they are a nice looking bow and should be very forgiving. I think it is actually one of the best designs to come out of PSE in a long time. I really like them and they should be a great bow. Keep us all posted on what you guys learn about them.

RE: ARCHERY RESEACH BOWS
I just went and looked at an AR31 . It is a pretty nice bow ,but from all I' ve heard about the high quality on these bows..........I was a little disappointed with the paint on the inside of the riser(outside looked good). The inside of the riser is hollow(hard to explain) and unpainted. The inside was just full of overspray from painting the outside of the riser,looked kind of cheap IMO. I liked the balance and grip,but I didn' t like the draw very much. It does have a solid back wall. The local shop has them for $599.00( I didn' t get a chance to shoot it ).
