Mathews Archery Reviews & Rankings
The compound bows the rest of the industry measures itself against.
Mathews has spent three decades at the top of the compound world, and its flagships are usually the ones every other brand's marketing quietly compares itself to. The engineering signature is a dead-in-the-hand shot and a bridged, machined riser that costs accordingly. Here's everything Mathews we've run through the CareScore, from the bows themselves to the strings that go on them.

2026 model
Mathews ARC 30
The do-everything flagship of 2026. A compact 30-inch hunting bow that's quiet, dead-in-hand and forgiving enough to double as a 3D/target rig.
