RE: So why don't you guys like Mathews?
Matthews are really good at one thing: Marketing!
They went out... gave hundreds of free bows to up and coming shooters and somehow they 'dominate' the sport... Those shooters would outshoot anyone with any other bow... they just like the free equipment. Test some other bows regardless of price... You will be amazed at what you can find in the $200-300 range as opposed to dropping $500+ for a Matthews
