Martin Archery: A Quick Introduction

By Denzel Bowman

Having been involved in the archery making business since 1951, (where the business was started with nothing much more than a few tools and a kitchen table), Martin Archery is synonymous with the sport.

With over twenty five patents in their name, it is clear Martin Archery are flying in the right direction as straight as an arrow launched from their bows. Whether it is a traditional bow, the latest compound, something for the kids, or a competition piece specifically made, the quality is the only constant.

For the traditional bows, attention is still giving to the handmade techniques that were seen around the kitchen table; and it shows, with each bow unique and demonstrating its own characteristics.

It is possibly for their compound bows that they are really known however. Responsible for the introduction of a host of processes, techniques, innovations and concepts, they have made them their own. Martin Archery bows have always been reliable and strong of course; that they are now able to put these skills into practice on the lightweight models allows for even faster and truer flight of arrow.

They were behind the advances of the adjustable riser, and thus responsible for the biggest single improvement in arrow accuracy in recent years. That they also brought the world of archery double-helix bow strings and Teflon plated cable guards is indicative of their thoroughbred.

The compound bows are available in two ranges; Pro and Gold. The Pro series, as the name suggests is for the serious archery enthusiast, which needs and demands the very best. The Gold series is for those with less cash to spend, but also wanting top quality and value.

In each range a wide variety of bows are available. Highlights in the Pro range include the wonderfully named Warthog, which gives impeccable accuracy and control, and the MOAB Pro Hunter, which is as quiet as a whisper.

In the Gold series, the Leopard is an excellent choice without the best upper body strength, but still wanting to deliver their arrows in a fast an accurate way, whilst the Cheetah and the Bengal are both worthy of mention for those stepping up a gear on their hunting exploits.

With new lines coming on board all the time, and with a clear definition to providing only the very best for the increasing number of archers, Martin Archery puts its near sixty years of experience to excellent use. - 31499
