Seriously I have never heard of a recall. But my fatherinlaw just took his Switchback to his pro shop to have it checked out, said it wasn't shooting right. They told him a spacer was missing and promptly put the missing spacer in. Shoots right as rain now.

hate to tell you "I need the fastest bow" guys that sound travels at 1100 ft per second.
The deer is going to hear the bow/arrow before ANY arrow gets there. 10-30 FPS will makevery littledifference when the sound is still traveling 3-4 times faster than the arrow.

I don't get it... why does everybody pick on the matthews hunters? what if i said BOWTECH sucks? or Hoyt bows are ugly? and single cams are better? I'm just kidding about all that stuff, but seriously why just matthews that gets picked on?And if you guys want to whine aboutFPSor sound,your gonna need to shoot a rifle, cause that stuffdoesn't matter too much with them things.

yes, there is a switchback recall, and bowtech is going bankrupt again this year - just like the last 4.

You should put one of these little ditty faces [8D][8D]after your statement. Otherwise someone may think you're for real.

Well lets see here.... mathews suck.... bowtech sucks....hoyt sucks.... heck they all suck! But I gladly shoot a hoyt why... because it fits me the best out of all of the bows that I have tried. Bowtechs... I like them but like my hoyt better.... mathews... hate them because I have not tried any that I felt good to me.... To each their own and shoot what you want I wont bash you for doing it.... just dont bash me for my choices either. Everyone makes good equipment but if you dont have it set up right and you are not comfortable with it and cant shoot it good then dont blame the equipment for it as more then likely it's not the equipment that is at fault. Now like someone mentioned earlier the issueabout a bushing missing can happen but that is very rare.


BTW... I like chevy's.... and ford's... and dodge's but more then likely when I buy me a new truck I will be getting either a nissan titan or toyota tundra with a v8. But then again I will just drive my current s-10 or corolla for a while.
