Default Mathews S2?

Im looking to get a new bow in a few months and was thinking either the X-Force or a Mathews in general. I noticed on their website they have a new model called the S2. I've never heard of it. All thats advertised or all thats talked about is the Drenalin and DXT. So, has anyone heard anything on this bow or have shot it? Im thinking about going and shooting one if I can. Thanks

I shot it last year. Didn't care too much for it and bought the Bowtech General instead. A lot more smoother than the S2.

You need to shoot it for yourself, it's an awesome bow in the Switchback line. Very smooth on the draw and quiet. My buddy had a 101st and once he shot the S2 he bought it and sold the other. Longer a-a and a little heavier than the dxt so many find it more forgiving. Mathews chose to push one bow and that was the DXT, but the S2 is as good or better to many guys. Check out Mathews forum for more on it.

I shot the S2 and actually liked it better than the Drenalin-it's really a matter of personal preference. You won't know until you shoot them for yourself.

Good luck!
