Stealth LX Independent Bow Review

HUNTER'S FRIEND WELCOMES WHISPER CREEK ARCHERY!

We've had our eyes on Whisper Creek for several seasons. As early as 2002, we knew something was brewing with this tech-savvy newcomer. As their innovative designs began to emerge and evolve, we quietly watched and waited - trying to decide if Whisper Creek would be a real contender in the market. But all that ended when our testing team got their hands on the new WCA bows at this year's ATA Show. Whisper Creek had brought their A-Game, and everyone knew it. So in spite of the fact we already carried a dozen major bow lines, it was time to bring Whisper Creek on-board at Hunter's Friend.

While we ogled at all of WCA's hot new models, the bow we kept passing back and forth, shooting again and again, was the mid-priced short-n-stocky Stealth LX. As soon as you pick this bow up, you know you have a solid piece of equipment in your hand. The Stealth LX somehow manages to combine burly bulldog construction with crisp refinements in all the right places - including a particularly beautiful 2-piece hardwood grip.

But forget about the aesthetics. Once you pull the trigger, you know this bow means business. The Stealth LX packs a mighty punch, but with barely a hint of forward limb thrust, hand-shock, vibration, or excess noise. This is a true bowhunter's bow. Combine all this with an affordable price and a lifetime warranty, and the Stealth LX is sure to be a top 10 favorite of the season. So it's a done deal, and shipments of Stealth LX's are already here. We're proud to add the Stealth LX to our 2008 Ready-to-Hunt™ bow package line-up. We guarantee you're going to love it. Welcome Whisper Creek - LET IT FLY!!!

Of course, we've loaded this great bow up with everything: rest, sight, arrows, stabilizer, hard case, wrist sling, mechanical release and MUCH MORE. But don't expect the box to be full of loose parts and assembly instructions, because this awesome rig 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! So this rig arrives 100% ready to shoot. Check out the videos and scroll down for more details.

Bow Package Details: Accessories Included

ARROW REST CHOICE #1 Most Popular
Quickshot Whisker Biscuit

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. Once you try it, you'll never go back to standard prong rests. Now featuring the new B2 biscuit with improved bristles for less fletching wear and friction. ARROW REST CHOICE #2
QAD Ultra Rest Hunter

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.

SIGHT CHOICE #1 Most Popular
Extreme RT900 4-Pin Camo with Light

The Extreme RT900 sight has the same fully machined aluminum housing and extended fiber optic, although the light has been repositioned to not only light the fiber optic pins, but also the fluorescent centering ring on the sight. Rugged and affordable, the RT900 comes with a full lifetime warranty. Camo finish. SIGHT CHOICE #2
Top Gun Nighthawk 3-Pin w/Fiber Coils

This sight takes wrapped sight pin technology to the next level. The unique metal .029 sight pins provide "zero gap" pin spacing on the same plane, while supporting the fiber over the entire pin length for the most fiber protection on the market. Machined aluminum sight frame, dovetail windage and pin guard. Awesome for low light situations. Black finish.

YOUR ARROWS
6 Custom Carbon Arrows

Half-dozen custom carbon arrows (.006" or better straightness) from leading carbon arrow manufacturers like Easton, Beman, and Gold Tip. Durable, lightweight shafts fly 20% faster than comparable aluminum arrows. Provides excellent penetration and knock-down power. Fletched with feathers or vanes. All arrows come with practice tips installed (matched to the grain weight of your broadheads - of course).

YOUR CASE
Flambeau Safe Shot Hard Case

Sturdy, molded construction from Flambeau. Secure 4-latch closure. Hood & loop fastening straps. Incorporated structural pillars for added durability, and features built-in broadhead wrench. Good looking and rugged with plenty of room for all your other gear. Airline approved.

YOUR QUIVER
Trophy Ridge 6-Shooter Detachable

A great new design for 2008, the 6-Shooter hugs close to the bow to keep your rig sleek and maneuverable. Tough composite frame and dual arrow grippers mean your arrows stay put until you need them. Accepts mechanical or fixed blade broadheads and features a handsome camouflage hood for total protection. Detaches in seconds with easy release bracket. The 6-Shooter is the only quiver you'll ever need.

YOUR STABILIZER
Extreme Air Weight 5 Multi-Rod

The new Extreme Air weight stabilizer is created with the same technology as the famous ACAD series of stabilizers for excellent noise and vibration reduction. Reduced length for compact rigs and weighted appropriately for short-axle hunting setups. Comes in film-dipped camo finish.

YOUR BROADHEADS
3-PK Cobalt X3's

These remarkable heads by the American Broadhead Company are designed specifically for archers who demand extreme penetration and silence, but prefer a larger cut diameter broadhead. One of the best penetrating broadheads you'll ever shoot. And in your well-tuned Ready-to-Hunt bow, these heads will fly true and accurate every time. YOUR WRIST SLING
Braided Sling with Rubber Grommet

This quality braided sling helps to promote proper open-handed shooting form. Material will not soak up human scent. Rugged rope design with rubber grommet mount. Fully adjustable for any size hand or to accommodate bulky clothing. Camouflage rope design.

YOUR RELEASE
Tru-Fire Patriot Caliper

The reliable Patriot features aluminum construction dual jaw head, and the head rotates 360°. Padded black nylon Power Strap, much easier to put on then any V-style strap. Fits both left and right hands. Will not damage bowstring. YOUR PEEP SIGHT
R.A.D. Trio String Peep

No noisy rubber tube. The Trio Peep is always aligned properly at full draw and has only a minimal effect on your arrow velocity. Lightweight and easy to use. Available in 1/8" and 3/16" hole sizes. Installed 13.5 cm above bow's nocking point by default, but user adjustable if higher or lower orientation is desired.

YOUR PRACTICE TIPS
6 - 5/16" Combo Points

Perfectly matched to the diameter of your ICS carbon arrows, 6 Combo screw-in practice points are included and already installed on the arrows so you're ready to shoot when you receive your bow pkg. Tough combo style tip causes less target damage and allows for easy removal from 3D targets. Precision machined and weight accurate to +/- 1 grain. Removes quickly for broadhead installation. Style may vary. YOUR SILENCERS
Bow Jax™ Silencers

Your new Stealth LX will come with a set of Bow Jax™ string silencers installed - to reduce up to 90% of resonant string noise - increasing your stealth in the woods. Silencers attach with easy-to-use cable ties, so replacing them is a snap. No need for a bowpress or complicated serving techniques. Just zip and go.

Bow Package Details: Services Performed

SETUP
Every 2008 Whisper Creek Stealth LX 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 Whisper Creek Stealth LX. 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 Whisper Creek Stealth LX 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 Whisper Creek Stealth LX Package shoot hard and flat, with excellent kinetic energy (knock-down power). Depending upon the bow's settings, your 2008 Whisper Creek Stealth LX Package will likely shoot a measured 258-292 fps once setup with a "loaded" string. 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 Whisper Creek Stealth LX 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 Whisper Creek Stealth LX 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.

FAQ's:

Q: Should I Choose the Weight of My Practice-Tips and Broadheads?
A: If you already have your heart set on a particular grain weight, we will gladly follow your request. Please select 100 or 125 gr heads when you order your system. However, the choice of tip weight may be an option best left "open". Tip weight is a variable in determining an arrow's dynamic spine (how much it flexes when shot). A heavier tip makes an arrow act more limber; a lighter tip makes an arrow act more stiff. We test shoot each bow system to ensure we're getting the best possible arrow flight, and we often use tip weight as a tool to help "tweak" dynamic arrow spine. Leaving this option "open" allows our pro-shop to achieve the best possible spine, weight, and FOC combination for your arrows. If you would rather let the pro-shop choose your tip weights, your bow's documentation will show which grain weight was ultimately selected for you.

Q: When will my bow package arrive?
A: We put a considerable amount of care and labor into every Ready-to-Hunt™ bow package, as we want to make sure we get it right the FIRST time. But we also realize you're anxious to get your order and begin shooting. So we work hard to make sure our bow systems are built and shipped within 1-5 business days of your order. Once completed and shipped, most systems will then be delivered via FedEx Ground within 1-5 business days (delivery time will vary by location). However, if any delays are expected with your order, you will promptly be notified with the details via email. Please allow 1-2 days extra time during peak season (August -Sept). Once your bow system ships, you will receive a FedEx tracking number. If you have any questions along the way, feel free to call us at 1-877-410-7811 or email us.
