Anyone had problems with Mathews bows?
A friend of mine has a Mathews drenalin and has had nothing but limb problems with it. Last year he had the lower limb shatter on it and got pretty cut up and walked away pretty lucky. He then contacted mathews and told them about it and he had to send the whole bow in. When he got the bow back the replaced his limbs with black ones and it was a camo bow. He wasnt to happy and sent it back. It then took 4 months for him to get his bow back. This fall we were hunting and he drew back and noticed something wrong and his string had come off the cam. has anyone experienced these problems with mathews or no. My brother lives by them and has never had a problem aand he owns 3 mathews bows. He just recently purchased the Z7 and for me not being a mathews guy its a great bow. But i was just wondering if anyone else has experienced problems with mathews or any other company?

I don't shoot Mathews curently, but I have owned 6 of them and Never had an issue. I also have a couple of friends that still shoot Mathews and I can't remember any problems they've had off hand.
Actually I have owned at least a dozen brands and only had problems with one brand.

Pretty trouble free as far as i've seen. I've had NOTHING but good service from thier warranty department, great customer service. U can get a lemon in any flavor , though.
He should have ZERO trobles with his Z7

I have a buddy who has had problems with his switchback. He can't seem to get it tuned properly. He is taking in to a shop in town that specializes in mathews bows. There supposably the number one mathews dealer in the world. They said all they can do now is have him send it in. Im sure its just a lemon though, it can happen. By the way im a bowtech guy right now but loved the Z7 when I shot it.
