The Mathews Z9 was the long draw version of the z7, it went up to 32" draw length.  It's good quality, and a great bow if it fits and you like it. :tup:

I do know that the z7 is a short and compact bow witch I don't shoot well.  I don't necessarily know anything bad about them I'm just not a Mathews shooter.  If I were to shoot a new Mathews it would be that new chill R.  I really like that bow even though its shorter ata than I prefer it shoots nice.  If you got a z7 for free you got a nice bow. :tup:

Given to you! wow! Sounds like a heck of a deal to me. A good friend of mine bought a z9 at the same time I bought my z7 extreme. He needed the 32" draw. I'm a 31-31.5" shooter so I could shoot his fairly easily even though it wasn't set up for me the times I did shoot it it seemed to shoot quiet, smooth and was much more forgiving then my z7 extreme. At that time I was very good with my z7 I practiced allot. I need to get back to that. :bash: Both bows are set at 70lbs.

Its fully set up. Fall away rest, ive never seen the sight tho. It a magnifien glass with one pin. Has quiver and 6 arrows and came with a hard case. Have went and got it yet. Hoping I get a chance this weekend to go get it and take it to archery shop and have it looked over before I shoot it. Hopefull it will be my new blacktail killer.

The only bows D Rock knows anything about are the Z-Hoyts.

I like my hoyts.  I liked my old high country's to when I shot them for a few years.  Looked them up the other day still making bows.  Kinda want to shoot one.

If it fits you that is a great deal on a nice bow.  I shoot a z7extreme and love it, my guess is the z9 is just as nice with a little bit longer ATA and that 8 3/4" brace height probably real forgiving.  I think you got great deal with all of the accessories you listed. Nice job and have fun.  Post some pics when you get it and tell us how it shoots.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.
