KING COBRA

[SPIKER]

It's here, finally.

I threw a Red Dot Scope, TM Hunter style rest, and a string loop on it to check it out. This is a speed bow?!!

Holy Crap...there's no hand shock, or sound...wtf?!!

I can't wait to chrono this thing tomorrow...it just doesn't seem to be a speed bow.

The birth certificate stated 70#, 28", 336fps.

We will see...

[glow=red,2,300]Sweet, Spiker! Can't wait to hear the full report. [/glow]

All I can say is....what a dissapointment.

28" 66# 340gr. arrow = 305??!!!

The fit, and finish leaves a lot to be desired, but it does draw smooth, and is shock free. But, the speed claim is fraudulent. I think I will ask for a refund on Mon. This is BS...

Sorry to hear that my friend. I'd agree, nice bow or not these manufacturers should be made to be accountable for their claims. Keep us posted on what you decide.

Most tests are not everyday set ups.I have heard the bows
are set up with a striped string shooting an arrow so thin
you would not want to shoot it in real life.When I was working
they had the F-15 get a zero to ? climb to get the record
time.I also heard the acft had bene striped of paint,and had
just enough fuel to get to altitude where it flamed out.It was
chained down and when in full afterburner the chains were
blown.Kinda like bow speeds.

So is that a multipurpose bow, BH sharpener and wrench build into the bow is it made for the Swiss army.

Sorry to hear about your bow not holding up to the claims, they was only off by 9.25% from their claim because 10% would just be to outrageous.

Should have went with an Alphamax ;D
To bad they recalled them for a problem ;D ;D ;D ;D .............they shoot to fast .

[SPIKER]

Yeah, it is a shame..I really wanted to have this bow perform as advertised. If I can get them to refund the check, I will be looking at getting an Alphamax, or a Monster..not sure, but this didn't fit the bill.

[SPIKER]

I tweaked the cables, timed the cams, and the best I could get was 317fps @ 68# 28" with a 340 gr arrow..thats exactly 5gpp.

This bow is advertised at 362...BS!!!

342- 348...MAYBE....theres a lot of bows out there with this speed...I'l be looking to return it, and look at a Monster, Alphamax, or X Force....and now I'll bring my chrono!!

That bow is advertised at 362 and you are only getting 317 .
They better honor it and refund your money.
That is a load of #$^# that this bow is not even close to the advertised spec's
Watch out for the X-force they are also advertised higher than what the bow can do and to much hype.
When I was looking for a new bow I had no less than 4 people try to sell me their X-Force bow that they didn't want anymore just an FYI.

Even though I'm not a two cam speed bow guy, I'd bet money this thing will shoot better than IBO.
