I use to use several Mathews, but since gave compounds up for now and now garnish my hand with a simple Bear 45lb. recurve. Gave up the rifle for a recurve to bowhunt. Now it's back to the rifle for the most part. LOL!

Bowtech General 70lbs
Octane Hostage Pro rest
Spot Hogg Hunter Hogg it sight
Tru-Fire Edge Buckle Foldback Bow Release

Its been workin pretty well for me and shoots really smooth. I think each person has different tastes in what they're looking for in a bow. I shot almost every bow in the shops near me and this was the one I liked the most. Probably doesnt help I'm left handed and most of the bows I had to shoot were right handed then had to order the general. I'm glad I got it though.

Mathews FX,oldy but a goody,Easton arrows,Grim Reaper & G5 Broadheads,Extreme Sight and Whisker Biscuit and True Ball Release. It works for me so far having just started hunting a year ago. So many good Bows and other equipment to choose from it is a good problem to have as a hunter.

Steve, You are exactly right my friend. NO Bow shoots an arrow that does Not drop from 20 to 40 yards.

Last few years I've hunted with a BowTech Allegiance, 82nd Airborne, Guardian, Captain, and now have a BowTech Destroyer 350. None of these bows ever let me down.

Hell theres no bow that doesnt drop from 20-21yds if we wanna get technical with it;) No physics lectures for the day from me though... class is out for the summer:)

right now im shooting an apex 7. Pretty good rig thus far. It holds real well and im pulling off some fair groups at 70m with it. Whats cool about it is that its a full blown target rig, but since its black and camo ill be able to hunt with it if I want! Supreme accuracy up in the tree with a decent ibo... Thats what I'm talkin about!!! Its also relatively quiet as well for what it is.
