Title: crow creek black feather
Post by: Nate N on December 19, 2009, 09:37:00 PM
Who has a crow creek black feather and how do you like it?  Smooth and quite? Quick? Hand shock?

I've had my Blackfeather for about a year and a half now. It is indeed, smooth......quiet......and quick. There isn't any handshock at all. It's a keeper, and I'm gonna order another set of limbs for it eventually. Elmer knows how to build a bow, and I wouldn't hesitate at all to purchase another one from him.....sight unseen.

Here's a couple pictures of my Blackfeather. It is 62 inches long, 42# @ 29". Woods in the riser are cocobolo and zebrawood. The limbs are curly myrtle.

I have a Blackfeather a Crow Mag and a Dalton.  All of them shoot and feel great but the simply D shape Dalton is my favorite of the three. The Dalton is the lightest and I guess that's why I like it the best.  

The Blackfeather I have is probably the easiest of the three for arrow tuning.  Just seems to be very forgiving.  Don't get me wrong they all shoot great and are easy to tune an arrow too, just seems like the Blackfeather is the most forgiving of the three.

Just sent a Black Feather to Elmer to get some poundage off and refinished. Great guy to work with . The last 4 years every new bow I see from him has more detailed woodwork . These bows shoot as smooth as a Hummingbird , and that is as good as it gets. Roy

I had a Blackfeather. A really nice bow but mine wasn't near as pretty as that one. Outstanding.

I love mine.  Flat shooting and smooth.  The skinny strings really make it quiet too.
