RMS Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 I stopped by the local shop today and they had the new Drenalin set up as a demo. The bow is amazing! It's a half pound lighter then the Switchback XT and feels unbelievable. The pivoting limbs increase arrow speed dramatically.The problem is that Mathews keeps raising their prices every year. I got last years XT for $749 and the new Drenalin is $905 with tax. Now I need to decide if it's worth it! I love my XT and have had great success with it.

Guest Finn Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Re: Shot the new Mathews Drenalin Thanks for the info on the bow. The clown at my shop, as of yesterday, hadn't had time to set his up. Wow...those prices are high. I got my XT in July for $655 down here.

PAbowhunter4life Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Shot the new Mathews Drenalin $905 with tax.... MY GOD!!! My dealer is selling them here for $750 plus tax, comes to like $800 on the button with tax. At any rate, I am on my way there tomorrow to shoot one. The owner is a diehard Switchback fan, which I am also, he didn't even bat an eye at the XT. However, I talked to him yesterday and he told me after shooting the Switchie and Drenaline side by side he ordered a new Drenaline because the Switchback isn't even in the same league as the new bow. Sooo, that being said, daddy might be ordering a new Drenaline tomorrow and picking her up in 2 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that people who shoot Hoyts can beat up everyone else no matter what brand they shoot. I also heard that Martin bows are so good that every other bow company will go out of business. That is just what I heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bones1768 Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Shot the new Mathews Drenalin wow that price is high. They are going for $698 here in kansas. PM and I will give you the archery shops number here in ks. He might even have them later for $649 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Shot the new Mathews Drenalin That price is way high, I guess until guys and gals stop spending that much money on a bow they being Mathews might drop the price a couple hundred dollars. Then again it would have to be awesome for guys to get rid of their Switchbacks which are sweet and only a few years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted November 24, 2006 Report Share Posted November 24, 2006 Re: Shot the new Mathews Drenalin I shot a Switchback XT when I was in Wisconsin this past summer, I love that thing! I believe it was $799 at the time. I'll have to try out the Drenalin next time I'm down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
