Black Knight

[lordstanley]

I am looking to possibly purchase a new bowtech. I have seen posts on just about every bow in the 2004 lineup, but havent seen anything on the black knight. Was wondering if anyone has shot it yet? Would like to know what your opinions are on this bow. Thanks.

THE speed bow. Stiffer to draw than other Bowtechs and very short brace height. Its made for the advanced shooter. I was going to buy one but thought there was a better compromise between speed and forgiveness in the Patriot.

Looks similar to the others in their VFT line-up. If I shot 3-D exclusively I may have gone with this bow, but I wanted a bow that I feel I can torque around trees without throwing a flyer.

Only a lucky few have shot the duals yet. They just started shipping recently. You likely will be hearing more soon. Sveral of the forum members here have duals on order or have yet to pick them up at the shop. I'll be shooting them myself next week.

Historically the bow has been extremely shootable considering the "beast" that it is. I had a 2002 tall brace model that shot like a guided missle and was very pleasant. The Tall brace option has been dropped for 2004, but the bow gets a new riser and set of cams.
