Roller: Would have to sell the hoyt, if? the Mathews is a hot bow! As I have a Parker 31 also, and the wife would shoot me if I were to have three bows that cost that much at one time! Allthough.....she really dosent know how much the bows cost!!! Also, word just today from the local Mathews dealer is, a mathews rep told him, The new bow makes the Q2 feel like a rough shooting bow!!!!!

Yep they like to wait for the BIG SHOW, I guess it brings more people to their booth & takes away some from other companies. I think they just like to make people wait so they think it's going to be some BIG revolution or something, mathews is so into marketing so this plays right into that whole marketing thing they are into.
here is my guess on what is new from them. I say they will introduce an idler wheel with 2 tracks & the cable will terminate on idler (like the new hoyt, pearson, etc.). I also think they will try to market some kind of new cable that is supposed to be so much better than anything on the market (time for them to find a new way to market zebra strings). I also think they will introduce the realtree xtra camo on all their bows. I think they may come out with a new cam, for a new speed bow (time to put the ultra series to rest). I wouldn't be surprised to see a new type of bushing from them also, I could also see them adding their harmonic system to most of the line. I also think the feathermax & blackmax are history.
I will say this, I see nothing from that is so invovative that it turns the market upside down.....those days are over if you ask me.

You guys are right Mathews won't tell you anything I tried before I bought my Q2 too find out what was coming out and they will not reveal any info. I just e- mailed them the other day because I'm thinking about getting another Q2 and they said the same thing.

I was told by the shop owner that I shoot for that there will be 2 new models but he didn't know anymore than that.
I asked if they would be new or the same bows with a new twist and he said they are supposed to be completely new but really new nothing more.
