Wow, those cams are slick looking. Haven't paid much attention to any new Mathews since I bought my Switchback XT. When did they go back to two cams?

Seems like manufactures MSRP's never end up as much when they end up in stores. Still, over a grand for any bare bow is ridiculous.

Dumb.  I shot the Carbon Matrix and didn't even think it was worth a standard high-end bow price in the $900 range.  Oh well, if you've got money to burn, there ya go.

$2100 for a bow???  :o Thats just crazy.

I know a guy who has the Carbon Matrix and what does he take out for hunting??? Not it, he takes the Afterburner (or whatever it's called).

Probably won't be seein' a lot of those at the local 3D shoots...

The archery industry is really getting out of control.  Does spending $2100 or even $1000 on a bare bow really make you a better shooter?  I think not.  Quality equipment is important but this is absolutely stupid.

When Octane came out with their quivers for over $100 I was amazed.  Come on, all it does is hold your arrows!  I think they spent waaaay too much on the fancy packaging.

On the flip side, if people are willing to fork out that kind of money, more power to them.  I just think you can get a quality set up for less money that will do a more than adequate job.  I'll just remind them that I beat them with my less expensive bow at the 3D shoot.  :chuckle:

My brother won the first flight in a 3d shoot with a stripped down Wal-mart bow! I think bear made it, but there wasnt even a brand name on it! He has a real bow now though, the other started falling apart on him.
