I am considering getting the Z7 Extreme and wanted to hear from any of you that have one. What are your likes and dislikes about it? It's been about ten years since I've owned a bow so I would appreciate any feedback or recommendations you guys have about any bow, not just the Mathews. Thanks.

Got a new Bowtech Assassin this year, and love it. Smooth shooting, quite and fast. Killed one about 2 weeks ago, great out of the treestand. Short axle to axle, 333 IBO, similar to the Z7 but less expensive. I really like the Binary cam system on this bow and the ease of draw length adjustment, tuning, etc. Bought it with the RAC system and am very satisfied. Good luck on your purchase.


Success is uncommon, therefore is not enjoyed by the common man.

Ride down to Prattville and shoot all the bows and then decide.

When you go to shoot the bows make sure you shoot the eZ7, I was debating between the Z7 extreme and the BT destroyer. I shot the Ez7 and fell in love, its smooth like butta.


The world needs more people holding deer in pictures,and less people holding cameras in front of mirrors.

That's the one I'm most interested in but I'm going to give them all a fair chance.

**Warning** Don't shoot the Hoyt Carbon bows (Especially the Element in my case) unless you have the $$ to drop on one or can live with your 2nd choice..... smile

I bought one and really like it. It is much smoother and shoots much flatter than the older Matthews that I had been shooting. No comparison to a 10 year old bow.

To each his own, but I'm not overly impressed by the carbon bows.

So I have decided to throw PSE in as well but archery unlimited doesnt carry them. Any of you PSE shooters have a favorite spot?

Full Draw archery here is Huntsville is really good (PSE and Hoyt) but is a pretty good drive from McCalla....
