Mattews or Bowtech
 

Going to hang up my old whitetail hunter II bow. Am trying to decide to either go with mathews or bowtech compound: for bringing down big game, elk and deer, and possibly bear. Any help will be greatly appreciated.[:-]

Ding Ding Ding, lets get ready to rumble!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

I shoot BowTech, so, I should say BowTech.....right?????? Nope. I say try them both. Shoot them both and see what works for you. Don't think about ANY SPECS, THE NAME OF THE COMPANY, OR THE PRICE!!!!!!!!! Go by what feels the best. For me, the Mathews just don't feel right, I am not sure why, I think it has to do with the grips, so, I chose BowTech as it just feels/fits me better! I will say that Mathews makes some AWSOME bows and you can't go "wrong" with either company, just decide which bow you buy due to how it feels!!!!!!

Also check out PSE, Hoyt, Reflex, Browning, Darton, Merlin, Martin, High Country, Alpine, Fred Bear, BuckMasters, Jennings, and any other bow you can get your hands on. You never know which company makes the bow for you unless you shoot as many different bows as possible. Don't just say " I have to get a Mathews or a BowTech". Explore the different options and choose the one that works for you best. Like I said before, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE PRICE, SPEED, COMPANY NAME, ECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO BY HOW THE BOW FEELS TO YOU!!!!!

Thanx for the helpful info Buck Magnet. I really like the LX , but I also like the pro 40, tough choice.;)

These are both great bow's good luck on deciding ! I know how you feel I'm trying to make a decision on which Bow Tech , don't mind me I also like Mathew's but I like the feel of the Bow Tech better.

WELL MY FRIEND I NOW SHOOT A BOWTECH EXTREME VFT. I CAN SAY THAT I CANT BE MORE PLEASED WITH IT. I HAVE SHOT A JENNINGS BUCKMASTER FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS AND WAS VERY PLEASED WITH IT I JUST WANTED SOMETHING FASTER. I THINK YOU JUST NEED TO SHOOT ALL THE BOWS FOR YOUR SELF AND SEE WHICH FEELS RIGHT FOR YOU. JUST DONT WORRY ABOUT THE PRICE I TAKE BOWHUNTING VERY SERIOUS AND I FEEL IF YOU ARE GONNA BUY GOOD GEAR THAT IS GONNA LAST THAT IT IS OK TO SPEND MONEY ON QUALITY GEAR. AS FAR AS THE MATHEWS GOES I HAVE NEVER SHOT ONE SO I CANT COMPARE IT.

If customer service has anything to do with your decision, then its Bowtech all the way. I hear they bend over backwards to make their customers happy while Mathews customer servuce comes across as a bunch of snots.

I say make em pay for not hearing the needs of their custmers.

I think that both companies make a great product. I would have to agree to find the one that fits you the best.I am sure that you and that whitetail II have many memories together as you will with whatever bow you so choose.:D..............Bulls,Bugles,Bogs and Black timber.[:o]

Funny Buck Magnet. I was thinking the same thing when I saw the topic of the thread. RobinHood36, Buck Magnet is right on. I would take his first paragraph and replace Mathews instead, but his point is try and find what YOU like. There are a lot of good bows out there. Pick the one that feels best to you.

Don't ask us, we will go back and forth, you have to decode on your own!

I do have some great memoirs with the old whitetail 2, but it's time to retire it and move on with the great bows that are out there being built. For right now I'm leaning towards the LX. Just seems so smooooth when releasing the arrow.I greatly appreciate all the responses from you all, ROBINHOOD 36... [:D



Got some steak and some taters on the grill boys!!!
