Just wanted to see what all your thoughts were on Darton Archery?? I've been looking at their bows a little bit and just wanted to hear any comments, thoughts, pros and cons. Thanks,

I have been shooting a darton since problable 1994 and have no complaints at all, great customer service and great bows. I currently have a maverick extreme and have owned several other dartons and only had a limb crack on my magnum33 and they fixed it right away. Mark

Awesome bows, great draw cycle, fairly fast, very accurate ,easy to set up. Stay in tune for ever. I have shot DARTONS on the 3d ,nfaa, indoors and out, and hunting for 4 years they are great. If they feel good in your hand is what matters . But worth the look GOOD LUCK.

Tundra - Yeah, Baby!

I got a Darton Tundra this July after owning 2 Mathews, 2 Hoyts, a Newberry, and a few Bowtechs in recent years. I just absolutely love this bow. It is so smooth to draw, shoots very quietly, and is the easiest bow to shoot well that I personally have owned. I recently sold a Rampage that I had gotten as a backup bow, and bought a Patriot Dually because I was curious about how they were. I was impressed by the speed and lack of recoil of the Patriot, but it was like work to shoot it well. The Tundra is so much easier, for me anyway. The performance is really good too. I am only shooting #61 and 29.5" draw. I am getting 265 fps with a 415 gr. ACC for 65ft.# of KE. That is exactly what a friend of mine is getting from a 65#, 29" Patriot single cam. This from a bow that is 40" ATA and has a brace of 7.5" They are supposed to be coming out with a 36" ATA, 7" brace model called the Tempest. It will be interesting to see what it is like. :D

Every hybrid cam out there owes its sucess to Darton. They still have it mastered. Any Darton you buy will be sweeter than a bow that costs twice as much. I own two Mavericks. The older one has been absolutely flawless, the new one has had some quality issues that disappointed me a bit. I did have some frustration with their customer service, but I seem to be the exception here. So, I won't go bashing them here, I'll just write it off to someone having a bad day.
