Mover/cit Express Necurve The MAVERICK EXPRESS 'Recurve' featuring the CfP/S Express Single Cam for high performance shooting and easy adjustments is the FlagShip Bow of DARTON ARCHERY. A fantastic bow to shoot, it is fast, accurate and forgiving. It has raised the attention of those around us and is the envy of those competing against us. For 2000, we actually improved it. For starters we made it lighter (under 3 1/2 #) through the use of magnesium Limb Pockets attached to our reliable 7075 -T6 forged Riser along with a narrower set of redesigned Limbs. The stability of the lower Cam and Limb Assembly has also been improved through the use of a wider one-piece axle boss. The upper Control Wheel has also been modified to accept ball bearings that require less axle clearance. These are then sealed to be maintenance free .

Mover/cit Express Ql The MAVERICK EXPRESS 'QL' features the high-tech look of our Quad Limb design and forged machine Riser with the proven performance of the C/P/S Express Single Cam System.

Thi s bow is designed to perform with the best of them from a short 24 5116" draw length all the way up to a 30 1/2" draw length, all retaining the highest level of performance. A true hunting bow, the 'QL' features a short axle to axle dimension of 36" making it the perfect treestand bow.
