Win 7 oem download. Because this is an OEM installation, you can't use the Microsoft Windows 7 software download site. At the moment, the only two sites that I know of that have legitimate Windows 7 downloads are:1.2.The catches: Site 1 is a torrent site.

Basically Mathews protects their dealers by not letting another dealer sale the same bow next door. This happened in Albany Ga where an unauthorized dealer was buying bows from an authorized dealer and reselling them as new - reality is (Unbeknownst to the individual) it is a 'resell'. I am glad to hear Mathews is taking care of the individuals.

  • To tell the age of a Mathews bow, you need to find this serial number and date stamp.Difficulty:Moderately EasyInstructions Pick up the Mathews bow. Turn it so you can see the handle/grip on the shaft side of the bow - the nonstringed side. Read the serial number plate found at the edge of the grip. Write down the serial number.
  • Enter the serial number, without spaces or dashes, to search the database. If multiple models appear for your serial number simply match the date with the appropriate model, as certain vintage firearms can share serial numbers between different models.
  • Contact a local Mathews retailer. Click on Find a Retailer at the top of the Web page. Choose to search either by zip code or city and state and enter your location information. A local Mathews retailer will be able to tell you the age of your bow and the single year it was made. Contact Mathews directly.
  • My problem is that I cannot find a serial number for the bow anywhere on the bow. I need the serial number for two primary reasons: (1) for insurance purposes, and (2) for reporting to law enforcement should the bow be stolen. I would appreciate any help from you guys in locating that serial number.

My son recently started bowhunting and purchased a used Matthews Switchback bow. My problem is that I cannot find a serial number for the bow anywhere on the bow. I need the serial number for two primary reasons: (1) for insurance purposes, and (2) for reporting to law enforcement should the bow be stolen. I would appreciate any help from you guys in locating that serial number.

look right above the grip on the side the sight attaches to.

It should on the riser just above the grip on the right hand side.

Sorry guys, but I don't find a thing where you have indicated that it should be. Is the number stamped into the metal or it one of those stick-on plasitc pieces that can wear off or be removed with ease?

Should be stamped in the metal and MIGHT be underneath the grip. May have to take the grip off to find it. Makes sense huh? I once had a bow that I had to remove the grip to get at the serial number.

Oh God! That grip is on the bow as tight as an Alabama tick and I am rather concerned about trying to force it off. Tried to talk my son into a traditional longbow but he wouldn't have any part of that. I haven't used a compound in twenty years and they have really changed between then and now. The Switchback seems to be a very nice bow and shoots well or at least my son shoots it well. I appreciate your help guys.

RonD- Heat the grip with a hair dryer and it should pop off.

I contacted Matthews headquarters by e-mail and directed to the exact spot where the number was engraved. I know I'm old, but blind too. Here is their reponse: 'The serial number should be located on the riser towards the bottom cup. Hold the bow, as if shooting, so the backside is facing you and follow the backside down to where it meets the limb cup. There is a small space that the number should be engraved in.' The nice thing about contacting them is that my son is not the original owner but they are going to register the bow in his name.
