Going bow shopping!! Help!!
 

Ok guys a little help here. I'm getting ready to sell my 30" draw Switchback and get a new (or new to me) bow. My draw length is between 31-31.5" since I'm 6'5" tall. I've kinda narrowed my choices down to 3 (so far!). Opinions on all four from everyone here would be greatly appreciated.

I saw you rother post, but didn't respond. I can tell you as a former SB owner.....that I like the SB a LOT more than the Drenalin.

Just my .02, but if I was gonna go that route....I'd shoot the Dren a LOT more.

After seeing HuntingBry's Drenalin set up. I am a supporter of the Drenalin. I shoot the bear truth, but the next one I think will be a matthews.A very very nice set-up. Shoots quiet and super smooth.

dren ld... no doubt

Keep in mind I have not shot any of these yet. I'm going strickly off of advice from ya'll, others, and available draw lengths.

I'd pick the Commander. The center post pivot gives the bow the anti-torque effect of a deflexed riser with the speed of a reflexed riser. The longer your draw, the easier it is for even a slight amount of torque to screw up your accuracy, so anything that limits the amount you can accidently torque the bow is a big plus. (My draw is 33.5", so I've been there. ;)) The Commander would be a much more forgiving bow for you to shoot than the other three and you'll still get very good arrow speed.

Wow, mathews lovers unite! I would definetely say go to the Bowtech route. May as well have the leading edge technology. I'm a long draw guy too, and that Drenalin LD is a snail (by todays standards). The 101 is awesome, screaming fast, but I love my Commander. I've wanted to trade it in twice, but j ust can't part with it. Fantastic bow, quietest you will find, and with the ATA length, the accuracy is excellent.

I have a Sasquatch friend that has the drenalin and he likes it.
:D
Coming from a short-crotch (29" inseam) like myself, I can't vouch for this, so word of mouth only.;)

I do however, have a 4 year old Matthews bow and love it and that's my final answer!

Don't worry, most on here giving advise haven't shot them all either.:D

I have shot the drenlin and switchback and like the switchback more just because of its limb design.

I own a commander and love it and highly recommend it for a draw like yours. But its heavy. Noticably heavy. I have shot the 101st and if your a speed freak, you won't be happy unless you have this one. But, the commander is so much more quiet and shock free. I will take that over the 101st
