Honestly I see more brand trashing by dealers over Mathews than any other brand. This is coming from someone that works in a Mathews shop........

Mathews really protects their dealer base better than any other manufacturer I've seen without question. The dealers that can't get in with them really have a difficult time competing.......it's a great bow with a TON of marketing behind it. The Mathews line is the cash cow in the industry and love them or hate them..............if your a dealer the Mathews line can make or break your business. I think this is why you see the negativity from non mathews shops.

I'm betting your guy had it but lost the line at some point over something..........they don't let you screw around at all. If he got caught selling out of his territory or online or just wasn't moving the product he probably lost the line and is bitter. Mathews won't put up with this stuff like other manufacturers will.
