Scarey pics of exploded Drenalin
 
This has nothing to do with bashing Mathews............I thought the Drenalin was the nicest all around bow I shot this year.

This is just scarey.

If I remember right, it was broke when it was in a bow vise. I could be wrong though.

looks like a new design....BEYOND parrellel!

seriously though that does look like an area of high stress..like the limb kinda pivots on that point..

This was the explanation by the shooter. I really don't know or care how it happened........either way it had to be a scarey scene.



Picked up my new 30" 70 # drenalin yesterday, had the bow shop rig it, STS, Limb Savers, Leaches, shot it probably 30 times, drew the bow, next thing I know I am on my knees and the bow shop owner is asking me if I am alright, the bottom limb broke in half at the pivot point next to the riser, something hit me in the mouth, knocked me down, parts went everywhere.

That STS looks wrong to me too...........unless it got twisted in the explosion.

My brother tried his buddies release one day and drew his bow back forgetting he had his release around his string..........it got sucked into the cam and everything let loose. THAT was a freaky event that scared the heck out of everyone.......this must have been insane.

No you are wrong...that's Mathews new adjustable axle to axle length shooting system. You maymake fun of it now but just you wait and see next year everybody will be using it.:D
