I am not ant-MATHEWS i just have a few opinions of them.. im sure i am wrong i am just a kind of person that takes allot of convincing to change my mind... i just got a martin phantom and maybe in a few yrs. i will want to upgrade and i will prob keep the mathews in my mind to check out. i am a begining hunter and right now a LEGACY is out of the question for me anyways. $700 doesnt come easy to a 15 yr. old! right now i am perfectly comtent and thrilled w/ my new bow. Dont mean to stir anything up with you silent assasin!
