Diamond by BowTech The ultimate expression of your passion for bowhunting! The mystery and magic, the beauty and romance—a Diamond says all the heart feels but words cannot express. The age-old legacy continues, with a line of bows that merit the name Diamond. These finely crafted bows reflect a truly legendary passion for bow hunting and archery. Across the board have an improved cam and mod system that allows the archer to precision tune their bow to individual valley preferences and precise draw length. Result: These Diamonds thrill like no other!Super-efficient 12", 53°-beyond-parallel limbs and optimized center cam mass placement provide superior energy transfer directly to the arrow, with minimal hand shock and noise. 80% let-off (adjustable to 65% let-off) Pinnacle Cam delivers unsurpassed smoothness; redesigned modules have been extended, to give you a tunable valley. Slender 2-piece grip, machined shelf trough and thumb groove and repositioning of the arrowrest holes, combine to close the distance between your hand and the arrow, providing reduced vertical torque and increased accuracy. Brace height: 7-1/2". Axle-to-axle length: 31-3/4". Weight: 3.6 lbs. Color: Realtree Hardwoods HD®.

Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Value for money
"I have shot every brand of bow on the market for over twenty years and nothing compares to the black ice! Don't be fooled by those major brands that spend millions on pro shooters and advertisements this is simply the best bow I have ever shot. I no longer feel the need to buy a new bow every year I LOVE THIS BOW!!"

Better than Mathews?,March 2, 2009
By Ertmer75from Apple River,IL
"I purchased this bow in August of 08 and was in perfect shooting form by hunting season. This bow is quiet, fast, accurate. Last year was the first time I also shot from a ground blind and had no trouble based on the short axle to axle length. I also shot with friends whom were shooting Mathews equipment and did I get some jaw dropping stares. They thought I was a genious for buying such a nice bow. Nice warranty also."

Amazing bow!,January 10, 2009
By MttSnookfrom Orlando, Florida
"This bow, when set up properly, is insane. Worth every penny. I have the trophy ridge drop rest and tru-glo sight and i could not be happier with it. It easily shoots .5" groups at 20 yards, I have to back up further or else I will just ruin all my arrows. Very nice bow, I would recommend this to everyone hands down best bow I have shot today, and that is including all the mathews switchbacks, reezens, dxt's, drenalins, etc."

Out smooths them all,January 4, 2009
By gibbshooterfrom Washington State
"I researched the current compound market quite extensively when I decided to get back into archery. After several months of research, I settled on the Black Ice by Diamond. Since then I've added an X-Force by PSE and an 82nd Airborne by Bowtech. The Ice is not as fast, but it is smoother, quieter, more easily tailored to my individual shooting style. If I had to cut back to only one bow [God forbid] it would be the Black Ice by Diamond. But I am thinking about upgrading to the new Ice with the "velvet touch" ... hum"

hooked on black ice,August 26, 2008
By greatwhitegahunterfrom Dahlonega, Ga.
"There's not much that I can say except wow. I'm truly speachless. This is quite possibly the best bow that I have ever had the pleasure of shooting. I've shot all the big name brands and am sold on this one. From the smooth draw, to the speed, to the sound (or lack of), it's quite unbelievable. Unsurpassed accuracy combined with ease of use create a bow that's truly "fun" to shoot. I'm pulling 61 lbs. and with CE Maxima 250's getting 296 fps. through the cronograph. If you're looking for an amazing bow, you can't afford to pass this one up. Shoot the Black Ice and you'll never Switchback due to lack of Drenalin!!!!"

2008 Black Ice,July 15, 2008
By MAVnTEXfrom Texas
"Overall a very smooth draw compared to other high end bows. I've had this bow 3 weeks and I simple enjoy the 80% let off at 65 lbs. I tried using a 70% let off and I didn't enjoy the bow as much. I compared this to the mossy oak x (draw not as smooth) and the marquis (longer and heavier) and choose the Black Ice for it's smooth draw, light weight and short ATA."

My Last Bow,July 3, 2008
By JMoserfrom Mobile, AL
"It's gonna be hard to improve on this. I haven't shot a bow in years, yet when I shot this bow the first time I was amazed. Very smooth draw, ultra quiet release, and very forgiving. I've never shot tighter groups at distance with such confidence. This will be my constant companion for many deer and turkey seasons to come."

Black Ice is dangerous!,September 17, 2007
By Brad
"Bow Tech really has a good thing going with Diamond archery.. The Black Ice is simply the best bow I have ever held in my hand. Its balance in remarkable, and the back wall is the smoothest I have ever felt. This bow is years ahead of the competition in single cam bows. I couldnt imagine anything more durable, fast, light and smooth being produced anytime soon. This is an engineering marvel. Save the couple hundered dollars and shoot the black Ice.. That is the only sales pitch to describe it.. SHOOT IT!!!!!"

BLACK ICE-A COOL BOW,September 9, 2007
By KBW
"MY SON IS INTO BOW HUNTING BIG TIME, GUIDING HUNTS, TEACHING, ECT. SO HE TAKES ME TO BASS PRO SHOP IN SAN ANTONIO TO LOOK FOR A BOW. THE STAFF WAS GREAT, AS WE SHOT EVERY BOW THEY HAD AT THEIR INDOOR RANGE. WHEN I PUT THE DIAMOND BLACK ICE IN MY HAND, IT JUST FELT RIGHT. IT WAS LIGHT, SMOOTH, FAST, AND QUIET. I HAVE BEEN OUT OF ARCHERY FOR 25 YEARS, AND AFTER ONE WEEK OF PRACTICE, I AM CONSISTANTLY GROUPING 3 INCHES AT 20 YARDS AND 5 INCHES AT 35 YARDS. THIS IS A GREAT BOW AND I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE. THE BLACK ICE IS REALLY A "COOL" BOW."

WOW,September 5, 2007
By ston5364
"I have had this bow for a month now and group within the inch up to 30. My cousin purchased a Parker at the same time. After many problems got a Truth. After problems with it he got a Mathews. I have shot all four. The Black Ice is hands down the smoothest and quietest Ive seen. I added a string supressor and it took out the tiny bit of string vibration and now it is effortless. After adding a good drop away, I IBO just over 300. Again WOW."
