Who's getting defensive???
Maybe you missed the lol there at the end of the wimpering statement Fabs. I have nothing to get defensive about. I'm not demanding you acknowledge my abilities, expieriences etc. etc. when it comes to bow hunting. I don't feel it neccesary to portray myself as an expert on every subject because I am not. However, I have no problem stating my opinion on things based on what I see happening with advertising, and sponsorships. You have as many assumptions and hypotheticals in your statements as I do, thats why these statements are called OPINIONS!!! I believe this thread was asking for peoples opinions was it not?? I think that Matthews sponsors as many people as they can on the 3d circuit just to get their name in the win column everytime, thats my opinion and hey if they do thats good marketing because it convinces certain people to buy their bows without looking at anything else. Just to set things straight, I never said their bows are not good bows. I did set up two of them this summer and was not impressed with their performance as far as a hunting bow is concerned. ( they had alot of vibration which resulted in noise thats not opinion that is fact ) I also set up a Parker Phoenix 32 and had no problems at all with it, and am about to set up a UL 35 Parker for another friend. In setting up and tuning those bows I shot them quite a bit, the Matthews more than the Parker, two sets of Limb Savers and String leeches later the Legacy still sounded like a bass guitar but not as bad as without them. lol In the past I've worked on PSE, Browning, and lots of others, some good some bad. What I was trying to get across was most expensive does not always equal the best for a particular individuals needs.
Whenever you respond to something that has hit a nerve with you it always ends up being a talk about money, how much your guns cost, whats in your safe, how much your truck and cars cost, the list goes on and on. None of which has anything to do with most subjects. Again I pose the same question to you,,, where does your expertise on this subject come from,,,, what do you base your decision to purchase a Matthews bow on???
Hey bigdaddy just walked in, wants to know what happened on Saturday? He came over to hunt with you in the afternoon and you were gone. The ice had melted and he retrieved his goose off the pond, it was banded,, and a $100 reward on top of that.
