To summarize, while the Reezen 6.5 is a very fast single cam bow, it is often described as a bow with a relatively stiff draw cycle. While a bare bow could have less shock and vibration, installing silencing components help to improve shootability significantly. Many shooters say this bow is an excellent choice provided it is tuned and adjusted properly. Not ideal for beginners (due to its aggressive eccentric system), the Reezen 6.5 is a much better choice for experienced shooters who like speed bows and are used to stiffer draw cycles.When the Reezen 6.5 entered the market in 2009 it was the fastest single cam bow ever. While it has a less forgiving brace height than its 7.0" brace height brother from the Reezen series, it is 5 fps faster. When equipped properly, this is a good shooting bow capable of launching arrows faster than previous Mathews bows.Quietness and vibrationWhen it comes to vibration and recoil, there seems to be two different camps out there. While some people say this bow has notable vibration and shock, others insist it's a great bow with little recoil and hand shock when tuned properly. While researching different opinions we even saw hunters changing their opinions having tried different set ups of the same bow. We agree with those archers and experts who say that installing silencing components such as stabilizer and dampeners will definitely make this rig quieter.Eccentric systemMathews' new Reezen Cam system powers the Reezen 6.5 to advertised IBO speeds reaching upwards of 340 FPS. This system offers draw lengths adjustable over a 24"-30" range in half-inch increments. Also, this is a cam-specific eccentric system, meaning that a new cam is required for adjusting the draw length. To make it easier to adjust the draw length Mathews engineers designed a unique and effective Quick Change Axle (QCA) system. The let-off is 80%.Draw cycleMany hunters strongly agree the Reezen's draw cycle is harsher compared to other single cam bows manufactured by Mathews. Some archers who never shot speed bows dislike the draw cycle on the Reezen 6.5. They also note that the draw cycle feels a few fps heavier than it really is. However, speed bow shooters insist the Reezen's draw cycle is not bad at all. Almost everyone agrees, though, that the draw cycle is relatively stiff and not very smooth because it's a speed bow.
