Diamond never set out to just build another single cam bow.  Diamond's mission has been to build the best single cam bow on the market.  With the introduction of the new 2008 Marquis, it's clear that Diamond has finally accomplished that mission.  This bow is the culmination of years of technical development and field analysis.  Nothing has been overlooked - nothing compromised.  The Marquis is as good as it gets.  From its foundation of laser-precise machined aluminum, to its perfectly sculpted Pinnacle 5 cam system and integrated roller cable guard, the Marquis is simply flawless.  Refined.  Polished.  Brilliant!

How does the world's best single cam bow perform?  Considering that "smooth, quiet, and fast" is perhaps the most clichéd phrase in the archery industry, it just wouldn't be proper to paint the Marquis with the same old brush.  The Marquis seems to almost glide back to full draw.  The transitions through the cycle are nearly imperceptible, that is until you reach full-draw and ease into the Marquis' rock-hard back wall.  That's when you'll notice how well balanced and stable the Marquis really is.  Line up your pin.  Ready?  Touch the trigger.  You'll feel no forward limb thrust.  The Marquis fires without a blink of recoil.  And you'll gasp at how quickly the Marquis' Short-Stop dampener arrests string oscillation.  But when you glance downrange.....the true brilliance of the Diamond Marquis comes crisply into focus, as your arrow splits the wind at 324 fps and lands on a pinpoint.  The Marquis is a distinguished cut-above the rest.  To just call it smooth, quiet, and fast would be almost uncivilized.

This pro-grade package comes with the very best of everything.   You get your choice of arrow rest, sight, release, arrow shafts, broadheads, and quiver.  PLUS you also get a matching camo stabilizer, hard case, wrist sling, and MUCH MORE.  But don't expect the box to be full of loose parts and assembly instructions, because like all of our Ready-to-Hunt™ Bow Packages, the Diamond Marquis Pro Package comes ready for action the moment you unpack it from the case.  Our pro-shop does all the work in-advance; professionally installing the accessories, custom building the arrows, tuning and testing the finished rig......the whole works!  This rig arrives 100% ready to shoot.

Bow Package Details:  Accessory Choices

ARROW REST CHOICE #1
QAD Ultra Rest Drop Away

Unlike other rests that drop-away because of inertia or vibration the ULTRA REST relies on the velocity of the Rest moving forward to initiate the launcher to drop. VDT assures the ULTRA-REST remains in the cocked position even on a slow let down and will only drop-away if the bow is fired. VDT is a durable and reliable firing mechanism which is sure to change the way you look at drop away rests. ARROW WILL NOT FALL OFF REST. When The Ultra-Rest works (full time) totally supporting and capturing the arrow.
ARROW REST CHOICE #2   Most Popular Pick

Your arrow will never fall off the rest again. Just nock it and forget it with the new QuikShot EZ loading system. The great shooting, silent drawing Whisker Biscuit has taken the industry by storm.

ARROW REST CHOICE #3
Spot Hogg Whammy Drop Away

Most fall-away rest rely on spring tension and gravity to enable the launcher to gradually fall away as the arrow is released. However, the launcher on the Whammy is instantly jerked away when the activation cord is snapped tight during the shot. This allows the Wahmmy's launcher to drop 5 times faster than a standard fall-away rest. Features spring-loaded launcher which is always in the up position.  Automatically resets after each shot.  Allows precise vertical and horizontal micro-adjustments.

Bow Package Details:  Services Performed

SETUP
Every 2008 Diamond Marquis Pro Bowhunting Package
is hand-assembled at our Pro-Shop by a qualified archery professional.  Every detail is attended to.  The peep sight is served in place, the nock or loop set is installed, the draw length and weight is set to your specifications, all hardware is carefully installed and properly adjusted, and your arrows are custom built to suit your particular bow and settings.  The string gets waxed, axles lubricated, and the bow is given a thorough inspection - top to bottom - for any flaws in manufacturing.

PAPER TESTING/TUNING
We actually test-shoot each bow.  Every bow is paper tested by our staff shooters, to ensure that your arrows will fly like a laser beam when launched from your new 2008 Diamond Marquis Pro Bowhunting Package.  Adjustments are made as necessary until each arrow tears a clean "bullet-hole", indicating perfectly level and straight arrow flight for the best possible accuracy.  We resolve any and all fletching clearance problems and align each arrow nock for a clean zero-contact launch.

RANGE TESTING
Each bow is tested at distance to ensure that arrows will group tightly.  3-Arrow groups are shot at 15, 25, & 35 yards and measured by our staff shooters.  We use the 25/2 rule.  If our staff shooters aren't grouping 3 arrows into a 2" circle at 25 yards with your new 2008 Diamond Marquis Pro Bowhunting Package, then we retune until the 25/2 rule is met.  While variances in individual shooting form makes exact sighting-in impossible, we test shoot each bow and rough-set your top sight pin for a 20 yard shot.  This gets your sight-pins in the "ball-park" so you won't have to start from scratch - possibly sending an arrow into an unforgiving neighbor's yard.  When you receive your new bow system, you will just need to make fine adjustments to the top pin, then finish-up by setting the remaining pins for the distances you prefer.  And if you're new to the sport, or not so handy with tools and gadgetry......don't worry.  You'll also receive a copy of our booklet Getting Started with Your Compound Bow which offers detailed instructions on the sighting-in procedure as well as helpful maintenance and safety tips.

CHRONOGRAPH TESTING
We know that speed isn't everything, but it is a serious consideration.  2008 Diamond Marquis Pro Bowhunting Package shoot hard and flat, with excellent kinetic energy (knock-down power).  Depending upon the bow's settings, your 2008 Diamond Marquis Pro Bowhunting Package
will likely shoot a measured 269-310 fps once setup with a "loaded" string.  NOTE:  Expect lower speeds (but increased Kinetic Energy) if you select the heavier Easton ST Axis Full Metal Jacket shafts. We chronograph each bow to ensure that the actual arrow velocity is within the expected range.  You will receive a System Statistics report with your new 2008 Diamond Marquis Pro Bowhunting Package.  This report will precisely detail the exact velocity of your arrows, grain weight and length of the arrows, recommended tip weights, the exact bow settings, and dozens of other specs related to your bow system.  Keep this sheet for your reference.  If you ever need additional arrows or want to make changes and adjustments on your bow, you'll have the original data to refer back to.

PACKAGING AND SHIPPING  (excluding AK and HI)
Each fully assembled
2008 Diamond Marquis Pro Bowhunting Package is delivered - packed tightly in the hardshell bowcase.  The bow and the arrows are firmly strapped into place and the loose parts, like the release, are all safely tucked inside too.  Once full, the bowcase is then returned to it's original box and resealed.  Your bow system is then shipped, via FedEx Ground, to your home or business within 1-5 working days.  A tracking number will be provided to you, so you'll know when to expect delivery.
