Bobco19-65,
I tried to PM you.Your storage box is full.
Sorry about that. You can try again if you'd like.

I was juust hearing on how you really have to work on accuracy and such, and then i go shoot my first compount bow ever and im shooting about 3" groups at 25 yards, and this is with a fred bear element. yeah, i know 3" isn't anything to brag about, but it was my FIRST TIME EVER!! so pracatice will get me better, fo sho, but to make it sound like its mostly skill and almost no bow, i wouldn't agree. skill seems to only play a part when trying to shoot better than 3"

Thanks for sharing. I'm also confident after not picking up a compound in years to be able to outshoot my longbow/recurve skills in a single session. But then again, personally, I just find compounds boring.

Shoot a Matthews and you will have your answer. I have a friend who shoots a bow tech. But every time he picks mine up he can't believe how smooth and quiet it is compared to his and others. THEY are THE BEST. Like the sayin goes "ya get what ya pay fer"

Well BUBBA, I did say it was smooth but quiet give me break. As long as you keep shooting those chicken feather fletching, I don't have worry which bow is more quiet. LOL

It surprises me how many people who support Mathews can't even spell it correctly [8D]

There is only one "T" in Mathews guys.

That's like saying I drive a Chevvy
