To all who think I should keep my opinions to myself about bow supieriority, remember this is a GEAR REVIEW forum. Im well aware the sun doesnt rise & set on Mathews bows & even a homade bow will kill a deer,but to you all who think Mathews are overrated & overhyped, ask youselves a simple question - what would bows look like if Mathews never existed? More important what did they look like before? Those who have owned bows Pre 98' know what I mean. Single cam ,short bows , mach. risers, parallel limbs etc. They started all that. ROSS,AR,BOWTECH allhi-quality bows and allare loaded w/ inovations and technologies that undeniably were Mathews patents & inventions. So buy other bows, love them, defend them, sleep W/ them ,I salute you all. But give the"devil "his due & respect Mathews -your bow wouldnt exsist w/out them.
