My question for you is, do you like your bow, and do you shot it well, and most of all, do you have confidence in it?? If you answered yes to these, then dont worry what anyone else thinks, and continue with what you have. Weve got a shop like that where i live and hes really pissing people off including me, to him if its not a Matthews its junk, dont get me wrong, I love Matthews bows and have owned several different and would have bought another last fall if it wasnt for his attitude. Dont let anyone put your stuff down, if it fits you and your pocketbook, and you like it thats all that matters.
