I haven't had to replace anything.

But I guess so, Motown.

Well it sounds as if Elite was been founded on some very rocky ground. I don't think I'll be purchasing one of their bows.

Just like Mathews, if I dislike a company [for whatever reason] I can't bring myself to purchase their product.
Wash ..... please realize I am not rying to start anything, I am just wondering what issue you had with Mathews?

My issue is really a non-issue anymore, just me holding a ridiculous grudge.

When I was first getting into compound archery, Mathews ads were blowing up in magazines. This was back when the Mathews/Hoyt comparisons were so strong. I disliked the fact that Mathews was spending more time proving why Hoyt was a bad choice than they were showing why their bows were better.

Seemed like a poor way to get their product to the public, IMO.

Prove what?

I'm not saying Mathews makes an inferior product, I'm just saying that I dislike the way the company went about advertising it.

Granted, I give people crap for shooting Mathews, but I give people crap regardless of what they shoot, everyone knows that.

AHHHH ..... I hate negative crap ... just like political candidates bashing each other. I just want to know what they stand for.

Now that you mention it, that would explain why the Hoyt guys on this sight bash Mathews all the time. They are probably bitter still.

Most Bowtech guys seem to be the gentlemen ...

Most Mathews guys seem to just not say much about what they shoot, knowing that the Hoyt army will attack .... just my thoughts ...
