What a first class company!
Now they are the first bow company/factory I have ever been to but WOW!

Every single person I met was freindly and seemed happy to be there.
The facility is top notch, clean,well organized and seemed to have a great "flow" as far as how things are set up.

As a new dealer(opened 2 1/2 months ago) and new Mathews dealer I was treated like an old friend.
I spent the day in tech school with people from 3 other dealerships. All great guys, especially Wes from a shop in Il. That guy should be a stand up comedian! We spent most of the day taking bows apart and putting them back together and setting to specs.

I got a full factory tour, they do almost everything in house. That gives them total control on quality, a good thing. Very impressive, especially the camo dipping operation. That is just cool!

The last 1 1/2 hour was a shoot off using Genesis bows at clay targets!
That was won by one of the guys from AZ and he got a trophy with a gold cam on it. I didn't do that great, I guess I need to practice with a Genesis more.

All in all, I came away even more impressed with Mathews, as a bow and a company.
Made me proud to be one of their dealers!

Yep, I am used to dealing with companies in Wisconsin.
I spent the last 10 years selling Harley Davidsons and Buells!

From what I understand they're a first rate company. Sounds like you had a good time. You didn't happen to see my bow being rebuilt while you were there did you?
