    I shot a Q2XL. I still like the bow, it’s just not the Bowtech. I kinda feel like a traitor because I’ve shot Masthews for 6 yrs


    Just curious. I’m not saying one bow is better than the other (Mathews/Bowtech/Hoyt) as I feel this is personal preference issue. But from what you have stated, here you are comparing a 1982 Chevy/Ford whatever Pick up vs. a Brand new Sparkling 2007 of a Different brand. The technology that all these bow makers have experienced in the last 7 years is incredible. Your old Mathews came out in 2000. How can you compare that to any 2007 bow no matter what the model is???

    As I siad this is not a Brand Issue, but have you shot a new Matthews or Hoyt Bow? To give them a fair comparison to a Bowtech???

    Like I said just curious.


    Hey Lip, I have shot the new Mathews Drenalin and it had more hand shock and noise than the Bowtech. Don’t get me wrong, Mathews is a GREAT company. I don’t mean to sound like I am bashing them. I’ve had two of there bows and loved them. I had no intentions of buying a Bowtech. Just happened to be with a friend who wanted to look. One shot and that was all it took. I beleive Mathews took a step backwards with the Drenalin, which is their 2007 model.

    I too, was very impressed with how quiet the Guardian shoots, but definitely not impressed with the funky design. Obviously could be overlooked. I still like my Mathews too much to make a switch at this time. Good Luck with your new bow. By the way, what model Mathews did you have?

    For the money, 2-5 seasons doesn’t sound very good. I have a Scent Blocker leafy suit that I think has taken a crap on me. Been about 3 seasons. My Scent-Loc stuff seems to be holding up better though.
