Mathews Drenalin
The Mathews Drenalin compound bow has introduced a new feature with its SlimLimb design. The SE3 composite SlimLimbs have been designed thinner, tougher and lighter than the limbs of other compound bows. The limbs of the Mathews Drenalin measure only 1-1/8" wide while testing has shown that the SlimLimbs last over twice as long as other typical limbs. The Drenalin features Harmonic Dampers, Roller Guard, a Perimeter-weighted cam, string suppressors and parallel limbs to reduce vibration and noise on shooting. This is a light-weight, heavy-hitting bow that looks sleek and dangerous.
The overall consensus appears to be a favorable one with most people on the various online forums expressing their pleasure upon shooting a Drenalin.

The Mathews Drenalin compound bow is also available in a Long Draw version and is known as a Mathews Drenalin LD with a draw length of up to 31 inches. The LD is a slightly heavier compound bow because it is slightly larger but at 4.15 lbs is still light enough to carry comfortably for extended periods of time.
The feature of the Mathews Drenalin that is prominent in many discussions about the bow is the SlimLimb technology both in the strength that Mathews tells us it gives the bow and in the impression people have on how it makes the bow look. Decide for yourself.
