Is the Mathews Creed a good bow?
This bow delivers in all areas. It’s accurate, church-mouse quiet, vibration free, and a dream to draw and shoot. When it comes to reaching full draw on the Creed, I think everyone will find it amazing that a bow spitting arrows at 328 fps IBO can be this smooth to haul back.
What is a Mathews creed worth?
Sporting a forgiving 7-inch brace height, decent speeds up to 328 feet per second, and virtually no hand shock, the Creed is sure to be the bow of choice for many shooters despite the $999 price tag.
What year did they make the Mathews Creed?
After much anticipation, Mathews introduced the new Creed XS, its flagship compound bow, at the 2013 Mathews retailer show in Wisconsin Dells, Wisc. The Creed XS has a 28-inch axle-to-axle length, has 80 percent let-off and features the always reliable and smooth SimPlex Cam technology.
Is the Mathews Creed draw length adjustable?
The Creed shares with most other single-cam Mathews bows the Reverse Assist Roller Guard, but unlike some others the String Stop is not easily adjustable. Draw weight adjustments on the Creed cover the standard 10-pound range, and are made by simply turning the limb bolts, with no set screws.
How fast does the Mathews Creed XS shoot?
321 fps
At 321 fps, the Creed XS is not the fastest bow on the planet, nor was it designed to be. Is it fast enough? If putting an arrow all the way through a whitetail and sticking it in a tree on the other side is fast enough, 321 fps will do that every time with a good broadhead and even fairly light arrows.

When did Mathews Creed XS come out?
2014
For some bowhunters, the release of the 2014 Mathews Creed XS may feel a lot like déjà vu…. at least on paper. However, the follow up to last year’s highly popular model is anything but the same bow with a different name.
How do you adjust the draw weight on a Mathews Creed XS?
Draw weight adjustments are made using either a 3/16” or 7/32” Allen Wrench. Turn the limb bolt clockwise to increase the draw weight and counter clockwise to decrease the weight. Both limb bolts must be adjusted equally, or the bow may become out of tune/synchronization. The limb bolt should be snug.
Can you adjust draw length on Mathews drenalin?
You can shoot your regular draw length without adjustment with this release. I also like a shorter loop. I make mine as small as possible. Just big enough to fit the release on with the arrow on the string.
Which is better Mathews creed or XS bow?
The Creed is actually a faster bow, but the Creed XS is so forgiving that the reduction in speed is not an issue. The official IBO of the XS is 321 FPS, which is still smoking and will give you all the speed you need. Accuracy trumps all when hunting and Mathews did not let anyone down this year.
