Does or Has anyone shot one of these bows. I have a Bow Tech Guardian now and might be in the market for something faster. The specs on this bow are off the charts. And there are a few You tube videos that have bow reviews and it seems to out preform the rest. I was wondering if it is smoke and mirrors.

I JUST SHOT A NEW BOW FROM MATHEWS...I FORGET THE MODEL


BOBBY....YOU CANNOT SEE THE ARROW FLY.>>>-------->


FORGET IT....DON'T EVEN TRY

AND THE BOW MAKES VIRTUALLY NO NOISE...IT HAD A WHISKER BISCUIT

ONE PIN....35 YARDS AND NO DROP

THE BOW IS NOT ON THE PUBLIC MARKET YET BUT EJW'S HAS 4 ON ORDER WHEN THEY DO GO PUBLIC

HE HAD A DEMO THERE TO TRY OUT

I RESERVED ONE OF THE FOUR

I SWEAR I HAVE SEEN SOME BOWS BEFORE BUT THIS ONE IS THE DADDY....

Speed isn't always your friend! Those bows that are FAST FAST are less forgiving to shoot and usually louder. Unless you are a very skilled shooter they are more bow than you really need or can effectively use. I will take a smooth quiet bow over a fast less forgiving bow every time. Remember the bow shop has to sell to make money.

Box,did the Mathews you shot look like the Pse [beyond parallel limbs] ? If so its the new "Monster"


PitchBait,that Guardian you are shooting now is a whole lot smoother through the draw cycle than the X-Force.Its all in how a bow feels and performs in each individual's hands.

I LIKE TO THINK ABOUT THE POSITIVE SIDE TO THIS

MY BOW WAS SLOW SLOW SLOW SLOW....AND IT WAS LOUD LOUD LOUD LOUD.....SO .....

I NEED A NEW STRING.....MY SIGHTS HAVE RUSTED OFF.....MY PEEP SIGHT NEEDS ADJUSTING...SO RATHER THAN REPAIR THE THING...I PLAN ON HELPING THE LOCAL ECONOMY BY BUYING THE NEW "MONSTER" ....WRECKER THAT WAS IT...THE MONSTER........WHAT COMES AROUND GOES AROUND AND EJW'S BOW SHOP HAS ALWAYS SUPPORTED ME BY REFERRING CHARTERS TO US......SO NOW I RETURN THE FAVOR

IT WILL COME BACK TO ME 3 FOLD.....ALWAYS DOES

Not to mention your arrows fall out of the quiver while walking to the stand. So the deer know what stand you are hunting on what day.

fast and quiet

Pitch, your not going to be able to bow hunt this year you'll be better off getting a faster and quieter easy chair to watch all the footage from this coming season!

I would take the new x-force over the mathews monster! the monster has a very harsh valley in the draw cycle when you get about 3/4's of the way back and it jerks real bad! I have shot a bowtech tribute and have refused to put it down until this year! I have 2 x-forces on order the GX and the new Omen.not too mention mathews customer service sucks bigtime.
