Mathews Z9Mathews Switchback LD
Summary
Summary review written by our editors.

The Mathews Z9 is a forgiving bow due to its long brace height of 8 3/4" and slightly reflexed riser. With the smooth shooting Z9 Cam, the Z9 will provide shootable speed for those shooting a draw length greater than 30". With an IBO of 312, the Z9 will only appeal to those archers with a draw length of 30" or less if they are looking for a forgiving single cam that is short axle to axle. Retailing at $899.00, the Z9 is not a bow that will sell in high numbers due to the special market it is designed for, however, those archers that fall within that market will find a quiet, smooth shooting single cam bow that is relatively fast, highly accurate, and forgiving.

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...
