The Marquis begins as a 30" piece of durably forged aluminum that is then fully machined to the tightest tolerances achievable. This incredibly strong, perfectly straight riser is designed with our one-of-a-kind shelf trough that incorporates a thumb groove below the shelf to reduce the distance between your hand and the arrow. The result is significantly reduced vertical torque and rock-solid stability at full draw. Upon release, our unique Vertical Force Technology (VFT) and Pinnacle5 Cam efficiently transfers stored energy to the arrow. The string supressor is directly in line with the stabilizer bushing to transfer vibration away from your hand and towards the target.
