Just shot the Z7 Xtreme. A little stiff on the draw but a sweet shooting bow and very quite. I believe I will be the proud owner of one before hunting season.

Not hating or anything, but why get a bow that has a stiff draw. All bows today are quiet, and they can be as loud as you want them too. Your post doesn't make much sense, because it almost seems like an oxymoron.

It's not so stiff it takes away from the bows peformance. Each to their own I guess or maybe I am just a moron.

I dunno.. I have that Redhead Kronik (Diamond rebranded) and I've stabilized, dampened, added string silencers, etc.
it's still pretty loud.

Just shot the Z7 Xtreme. A little stiff on the draw but a sweet shooting bow and very quite. I believe I will be the proud owner of one before hunting season. Got mine two weeks ago and LOVE it..... Of course, since 1992, this is probably about the 25th Mathews I have owned.

As of lately we have been building a lot of strings for the Z7 Extreme and everyone is loving the bow. That being said they're mainly hunters and love it for it's size. Korbin http://www.korbinsarchery.com/

Stiff is a relative term....especially comparing draw cycles of different bows and cam systems. Moving from a switchback to a z7 x...would be a stiffer draw..but a huge incease in speed. All dual cam bianary bows will have a stiffer draw then a single cam bow, but lack the speed and solid back wall of the dual cam.  Not hating or anything, but why get a bow that has a stiff draw. All bows today are quiet, and they can be as loud as you want them too. Your post doesn't make much sense, because it almost seems like an oxymoron.

there are alot of bows that are not stiff an are quiet an smooth shooting . i shoot a cheap Fred Bear Omni bow an its a smooth draw light weight an very quiet an feels great with a high draw poundage compared to some bows twice to three times the price but mine does me great!! i dont see paying a high price for something that i can find cheaper - but to each there own
