I looked at it and really like the bow. They are good shooters as well, i am not a fan of the new matthews and like the older styles like the switchback and the drenalin.

The Dren is pretty much the same bow as a Switchback, but just lighter. The one I shot felt great. I shot a Z7 last year and felt the draw cycle to be a bit smoother, but it had more hand shock than my Switchback and felt kinda twitchy.
