I have owned Bear "Lights Out" Parker "Wildfire" several "Hoyts" and a Bowtech Guardian that I NEVER should have sold. I just sold the "lights out" and went bow shopping. I shot the Bowtech Destroyer 350, 340, and was going to pull the trigger on the 350! I then asked if anyone in town carried the Mathews brand because I have never shot one, or even looked at one. Long story short I drove out to the Mathews shop, played with the 2010 Z7, at the same time the UPS guy was delivering the 2011 Z7 extreme.
I waited for the shop owner to get a 2011 Extreme set up just to shoot it a couple of times.... 5shots later he was x-fering all my gear off the "Lights out" on to the new Z7 Extreme.
Fast, Quiet, Smoooth, and almost no vibration what so ever! It fit me better than the Bowtech 350, and the others I have owned, or shot.
Purpose of this post is simple.... all bow's fit people different, so get out and shop around, shoot as many as you can and let the bow pick you!
I think the z7 design looks sweeeeeet also!
