| Summary Summary review written by our editors. | The Mathews Switchback XT is a superior quality bow from the Mathews Switchback series. This is a very quiet, compact, and forgiving bow. When it comes to shootability this rig is even smoother than the original legendary Switchback. A short 31" axle-to-axle length makes it the ideal bow for both tree stand hunting and blind hunting. Read full review... | The Mathews Switchback entered the market in 2005 and continues to be one of the best smooth bows ever since. Many hunters strongly agree this bow is one of the smoothest bows available on the market. With the very low levels of vibration and noise, the Switchback is smooth and fast at the same time. Having received a lot of extra positive reviews and comments from archers throughout the world, this legendary bow has been the most popular and most selling Mathews rig for a long time. Read full review... | Designed specifically for long draw shooters, the Mathews Switchback LD is a high quality bow from the Mathews Switchback series. While this bow is not a speed monster (only 295 fps), it is very quiet, smooth, and extremely forgiving due to its longer axle to axle length and generous brace height. A longer axle-to-axle length along with draw lengths of up to 32" make this bow the ideal choice for long draw shooters who are not speed fans. Read full review... | ||
