    Thanks bang
    not much to say about the Z7 except it is so smooth quite and accurate. feels great in the hand.
    this bow will be remembed like the switchback xt.
    I still love the monster but keep getting tendinitous in my elbows and it hurts pulling the bow. Just shoot the Z7 for the heck of iy it really is a sweet bow guys that hate mathews even like it[:D]

    Hey Buckey Have you shot a Reezen? If so how does it compare? I love the speed I get from my Reezen but I cant get it to group like my Switchback XT and my old Q2 will outshoot them both. Maybe im just not a speed bow guy. My form is pretty solid my groups just really open up with the Reezen out past 40. Maybe I should paper tune it again. Whats the AMO on the Z7?

    I also shot a Z7, and if I could afford one I would have to drop the Hoyt I shoot now.

    Mathews finally fixed one of my main complaints... They made the grip much more narrow which makes for less torque on the grip. $799 is a great deal from what I have seen. The shops here are all at $899.

    Yep to Iowa switchback.. "s kill" bought it. diddent really want to sell it but it was that or the switchback xt and with the way my elbow is well did what I had to do if I had plenty of money would have kept them all. I really like the power of the monster.
    its a sick machine. [;)]

    Wow! Hope you are ok! Had a good buddy had two bowtech guardians blow up on him. second one caught him right across the face.[B)] I have never seen bruises like that. Both happened within the first 50 shots. Dealer wondered why he didn't want it replaced again. No way he would give up his bowtech, but he will never shoot a guardian again [:D]

    WOW![:0]...NOT good! I {personally} would have to get rid of it, if it came apart with no-known reason!?!... That would mentally #%&@ with me every time I drew it making concetrating on target zone harder. Had a string pop on me once and welted my cheek and just missed slapping my eye.Took a while to break that thought... Good-Luck and glad your okay..

    yeah buckey lookin at the cam something ran threw it but I dont know what. we have it on video except you cant see the cam. I wear hand muffs around my waist so that rules out zipper or anything. In the vid it appears I've got it out far enough that nothing on my person should have gotten in there. But yes something did. I wonder if I caught stick/limb or something cause i had turned 45 deg at full draw to let down. just guessin I got something then and didnt see it.

    My dad just picked up a Z7. His first few shots where to sight in, then shot a 300 5 spot target for a 299, then the next day a 300. Low X count so far, but this is a pin sight with no stabilizer! Needless to say he likes it. I bet the old switchback will go up for sale soon.
