I dont bash any bow company i like all the bows to be honest . But their is always going to be people that feel they have to have the best of everything and if it costs more it must be better . If someone has the money to pull the trigger on a bow like that they either have alot of money or feel like they deserve something special . Me i really like my AXE 6 , and my Bowmadness . Good luck this season every1

A price like that would keep me from upgrading, that's for sure.

You can buy a rifle with a decent scope that will last your life time and your heirs with a little care for the price you pay for a bow that will be obsolete in a year or two and the resale value is nothing compared with what you paid for it but as long as we keep buying the newest and the fastest, it's what the market will bare.

Until we stop buying at the exaggerated prices, they will continue to increase. Just like pick up trucks. The more a company sponsors, the higher the price on their products. Believe it or not, the most expensive bows are not the best shooting bows.

http://mathewsinc.com/mathews-bows-1...t-1521-324.asp Its a Custom bow for a niche market, Obv they saw a market for it or they wouldnt have put in the R&D and set up cost to produce it. If i was hunting Africa and money was no object, i'd take a hard look at one, as it is i have no need for it, but there are those out there that will buy it whether they need it or not. |
I shoot PSE Madness and Axe 6 . The only thing i found wrong with mathews is the grip was to wide for me . I seemed to torque the bow with their grip , I am sure with time one could get used to it . But the PSE shoot well for me . Their are so many good bow companies out there . PSE , Mathews , Elite , Strothers , Darton , Hoyt , Bowtech and the list goes on . But these bow companies see the guys that deck out there bow that got way more than a grand in to it . And figure there are going to be enough people to buy these bows . Maybe its our own fault ? We do push for them to come out with something new and crazy and faster every year . But this is just my opinion , that i hear is only woth .02 cents . lol

I think all these rising prices of bows are bull ****. Thats why i have never bought a brand new bow. If i want current bow, i just buy my friends current year bow at the end of the season for half of what he paid for it so i can have me a new bow and he will go buy him the new latest and greatest bow out, and if i want a new bow the next year ill just buy his from him again. I mean hell 5 years ago i dont remember any bows costing $850,900, or 1600!!!!! Just my 2 cents

$2100....holy cow. $800+ for my Maxxis seems like a steal now! lol
