Finish quality on new Mathews Bows...

Just got a Z7 extreme tactical and noticed some imperfections in the black finish. Blemishes and uneven paint. Is this normal for such a high dollar bow? Im a little ocd.

Thanks,

J

 

Seems to be a pretty common occurance with solid color bows. Im starting to think its an issue with the flat paint adhering to the metal.

Im sure 100 & 1 people out there are now going to chime in..."Well my Elite/Bowtech/Athens paint is 100% flawless...must suck owning a Mathews or Hoyt!"

To you haters, I say...F U, and Ill gladly pick up my Hoyt any day!

 

in my opion its not how the bow looks yes its important but it all matters how the bow shoots

 

Got it out of your system now?

 

Yeah, all good! Thanks man!

 

Wow, a little insecure are we? the truth hurts don't it!

 

Any chance you can post some photos so we can see what you're talking about?

I also have a Z7 Xtreme Tactical and the finish on my riser is nearly flawless.

 

My lost camo is nearly flawless as well.

The honeycomb pattern isn't easy to cover, manufacturing wise at least.

 

I will try to post a pick. The blemish is located inside the riser openning where the holes were drilled for the screws that attach to the limbs. Theres a scratch in both opennings. Any idea what couldve caused this? I know it happened at the factory because there's no other way the scratches couldve gotten there.

thanks

 

Insecure? No. I have a camo bow, but I was real tempted to get a black Matrix+.

And what truth are you talking about? I own a Hoyt because that was the bow that fit me the best when I was shooting everything under the sun looking for a new bow...not because Ive seen a bunch of overpaid bowhunting celebs using them on their $10000 hunts on the Outdoor Channel. So am I less of a bowhunter or less of an archer because I dont shoot the same bow brand as you?

Me...hater??? Why, because I think a bunch of "fellow hunters" smashing on people that dont shoot the same brand, or look at a few reviews of a bows finish and automatically say that brand is garbage is bs? Then yeah, hater all the way!

Whatever you shoot, I hope you like it! It wasnt for me, but Im sure its a great bow either way. They really dont make any bad ones these days.

 

Just because u expect someone to comment, doesn't mean you comment first. Very childish mentality.

the Comeback that you replied so angrily too was kinda poking fun at that I believe. No need to get up in arms.

to OP
any number of things can cause little marks like that. A miss aligned tool, sliding on a rack full of risers, you never know, If its a big deal touch it up? I wouldnt worry about it though
