Default How do you guys like the Matthews DXT?

I was shooting the DXT for a few minz in the store, it dident have a stabilzer or anything on it, but it seemed like a really nice bow, what do you guys think of it?

it's a great bow ..... it's all about what you think of it ... shoot a mess of bows and pick your favorite ....

Very nice bow but if u are still looking for a bow under $700 u aint going to get that bow for that, at least not around here. Try a bunch and get what you like best.

It was nice, but honestly I didn't notice a whole lot of difference between how it shot and the Drenaline.

True, but then again .... you can't improve on perfection! [:-]

I like it. In fact I might buy it, if I can sell my other bow.

Its designed to be a hunting bow. Think about hunting when you shoot it. Thats all I care about when I buy a bow is how is it going to hunt. You just have to buy what feels good to you.
