Sure do....for anything white tail and smaller. It passes through like a hot knife cutting through butter and that is all I need and I get a much flatter tragectry with a 350gr. arrow.

Re: matrix 380 bear

Congrats on your bear. We have a lot of bear within just 5 to 10 miles of my house but I have never killed one. I have debated with myself for a long time because I would like to get one but I don't like to kill anything I don't eat and I have never tasted bear. Some tell me it is not fit to eat and...

Re: 355 or 380

Apples to apples the 380 is cheaper, if you sold off the added parts you would be at the same price. The additional accessories on the 380 are ones you would probably buy down the road for a 355 anyway. There a ton of sales sitting in limbo if they ever choose to sell a bare Matrix. I think it is a...

Re: 355 or 380

I like my 355 but I got the 355 instead of the 380 mainly because I am not loaded with money and the 355 was a lot of money to me. The 380 was a lot more money to me. If money is not an issue, I would have gotten the solid black 380. Just my opinion. Both are great bows and both will compete with an...

Re: New Matrix 355

Congrats!!! Love mine!! It amazes me how accurate it is. You definetly have to spread your shots around because it is so accurate you will ruin all your arrows. Mine shoots less than 1" consistantly at 50 yards. Haven't tried it any further because my yard just isn't big enough. Really like the...

Re: OT - Update on daughter's fight with cancer

Your daughter is a very pretty young lady and looking into her eyes and at her smile you can tell there is a lot of beauty beneath that skin too. She has a great spirit. I can empathize with you because I too have made a few jumps in my life and I have a daughter with that same spirit who has had a ...

Re: What arrow is everyone shooting from there 380

18" Black Eagle Executioners with 2" blazers and 92 gr. brass inserts using a 100 gr. field point.. Any they fly GREAT!! I can put 3 in a golfball at 60 yards!! It sounds like they shoot as well as the Diablos that were made by Easton specially for Excalibur to match up with the new Matri...

Re: Sad Trip to the Vet

Sorry to hear that. We have lost 2 in the recent past and it hurts like hell. They become, at least at my house, a major part of the family and are so much like children. They have so much love to give and they give it so freely. We have to make some hard decisions sometimes and hopefully it will be...

Re: Black Eagle Arrows ... Zombie Slayers

Why the moon nocks? I am new to crossbowing and I thought you weren't suppose to use those with the Excalibur. The Diablo was made specifically for the Matrix. In your opinion, is this arrow better than the Diablo? Will it shoot straighter, shoot faster, hit harder, penetrate better, and kill deader...
