Title: New Mathews
Post by: JBar on November 02, 2009, 12:29:44 PM: Z7, Monster 7.0 and DR2, What do you think? Should be shooting the Z7 tonight, Monster 7.0 ??? Don't see the purpose when it's doing the same speed as the reezen 6.5 but :dunno: DR2 looks like a drenalin smells like a drenalin must be a ....

Actually I shot the Z7 tonight and it's alot smoother in the draw than the Reezen, though you give up a little speed I'd rather be shooting the Z7. Has a solid back wall, NO handshock and super quiet. I got my new hunting buddy coming.

The Monster is the only bow without the string stops and with the low BH ti's almost a must. It helps keep the string from slapping your arm on the low BH bows. Probably not as necessary on the single cam bows though I heard it really help on the Reezen 6.5. It's also a $60 add on if you purchase separately, though I don't know how much it affects the cost when it's already o the bow.

A bow to consider for purchase if you are in the market for one this year. New Hoyt shoots very well and balanced as well. :P
