I purchased the 02 BK II about a week ago. The only bow shooting I have done was while I attended college in KS. I hunted two years & that was in 1996. I haven’t touched a bow since.
I shot about 30 arrows through my bow last week while waiting for the 30” mods. to come in. They came in & I had the proshop set it up.
02 BK II 5.5 BH
71lbs, 30” draw
ACC 3-60’s, 29.5”, 75 grain tip, 4” vanes
Bodoodle Pro-Lite
Peep sight, one brass nock point & an eliminator button
Limb savers
Carbon impact stabilizer
Matrix sight (soon to be Sure Loc)
I shot it 125 times today. I started @ 15 yds & worked back to 30 yds. I zeroed it in @ 20 yds, All I can tell you is, I had to call the proshop back & find how much they charge to re-fletch arrows. I shoot holes in the vanes of 3 out of 6 arrows that I was using @ 20 yds. I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face. I was very concerned about the BH also, & wanted the longer, but the short BH bow came in 1st. These BK II’s were flying off the racks @ my proshop. This bow is unreal; I can’t believe it’s accuracy for such a green archer. I want to shoot tomorrow so bad, but I can hardly lift my arm above my head. Hint: buy some kind of arrow puller, this thing drills them into the target deeeeep!
Is it quiet? Can’t answer it yet. I haven’t put any leeches on the string yet, I wanted to shoot it for a while 1st. It just so happens my brother just bought a Legacy. He pulls 62 lbs, 28.5” draw, 3-60 ACC’s, Bodoodle zapper 300, limb savers & no leeches. I have only listened to him shoot once, & it was very very quiet. He took a buck last week @ 25 yds. He said the other deer around the buck he shot didn’t even move after he hit the buck. They just stood there, they had no idea what had happened.
I shoot a light arrow real fast, so noise kind of comes with that, is what I am told. If you shoot more grains per/inch your sound drops. I am thrilled with this bow, this weekend my brother & I will get together & shoot & I will report back to you on the sound.
