Check Out Pros & Cons
Pros
Pros
- Genuine speed for a single cam - owners clock 330 fps at 70 lb and a 30-inch draw with a 350-grain arrow, and still 305 fps pushing a heavy 420-grain hunting shaft
- Shoots far more forgiving than its 5.5-inch brace suggests - a recurring "sleeper" reputation among owners for accuracy and tight groups
- Quiet and calm for a speed bow - String Suppressors and the Harmonic Damping System keep the shot settled, with no forearm slap despite the low brace
- Simple single-cam upkeep - one cam to time off two timing holes and a level string, with no dual-cam synchronization to chase
- Built to outlast its era - machined aluminum riser, SlimLine limbs in machined cups, and an original-owner lifetime warranty keep examples shooting two decades on
- Rewards good form and punishes sloppiness - the low brace and short, aggressive valley are honest about a bad release, so newer archers may want to shoot one first or run the 80% let-off cam for a more relaxed hold
- Every example today is a used bow - string and cable age and the fitted draw-length module vary from bow to bow, so budget for a fresh string set and a cam-module check at a Mathews shop before you trust it in the field
