I just got a new bow and was wondering if anybody has seen or tried one out. It is an Archery Research AR-31. So far shooting it has been a real pleasure!!! Very smooth and extremly quiet. It is not as fast as my Mathews UltraMax but it has virtually no hand shock and all I can hear when shooting aluminum arrows is the bodoodle rest rebounding and feathers flying in the air. It does make very little noise with carbons but not as much as my mathews or my proline new wave point blank.I It is not the fastest bow I have shot but at 301 IBO it is no weakling either. With very little set up and tuning time I have it shooting in the same 6" circle at 35 yards with my fieldpoints and broadheads. I hope to tighten my groupl up a little bit more but I just switched to shooting righthanded this year and am still working on my form. (I have been a lefty for over 20 years) At $599 I feel like I got a heck of a bow but was wondering what anyone else has seen or heard about them.
