Great bow reviews

Wow.... they were way off Ata speed

Man, U r d very best yet, in d archery compound bow review... all d very best wishes for upcoming videos ...

Video so good I showed my dog

I've watched several reviews on this bow on several channels. I don't know why everyone except bow disciples is getting different numbers on speed from what my bow produces. With a 350gr arrow (which I never use the bow shops provided it) in comfort setting I'm getting 330-335fps depending on point shape. Bullet style I'm getting 330-332. The finer point style field points are getting into the 333-335 range. In performance it goes up to the 340-344 fps range. With a 400gr arrow (again not what I use bow shop provided it) my bow is producing in the 320-322 range. A 500gr arrow (element quake my actual hunting arrows) I'm getting 290-291 comfort and 299 performance. When I step that 500gr arrow to 650gr with a brass foc weight and 150gr broadhead it starts to really shine at 285-286 in performance and 275-276 in comfort. With this bow and that arrow it punches straight through the shield and both shoulder blades with a complete exit on 250+ pound hogs at 35 yards. I think it would do it out to 40-45 yards but I will not take a hunting shot past 35. To many variables and I can't guarantee the hog won't duck or dodge causing a bad shot. 35 is my absolute limit. Yall can grill me all you want saying longer shots are okay, but I'm not comfortable with it. Yes I can shoot golf balls consistently at 100 yards, but a golf ball isn't alive and isn't moving hogs are. Deer because of the duck factor I'm not shooting past 30. I want that arrow inside it's fastest range to minimize the risk of spining or wounding an animal. It makes me feel like crap when a deer ducks and gets hit in the spine or worse just the back strap. Yeah a spine shot is a no track job, but 99% of the time the animal is still alive and scared till you put a second arrow in them. I'm not okay with that. I have shot a 300 pound boar head on with that 650gr set up out of this bow a couple weeks ago. That magnus single bevel came to a stop in the last vertebrae of the floating ribs after entering between the eyes and traveling down the spinal canal through the neck then breaking six vertebrae stopping in the seventh. I dought that boar knew he was hit, he dropped instantly and kicked maybe ten times nerve kicks with his front legs. There were three of us spot and stalking hogs, and all three of us were amazed at the performance of both the arrow and broadhead out of this bow. I also have a diamond edge max. Used the exact same setup out of it. I mean the exact same arrow and broadhead on a sow two weeks before that was 203 pounds to make the same shot. The broadhead stopped in the fourth vertebrae of the rib cage having traveled down the spinal canal in the neck and gone between the eyes in the skull. I'm pretty good at that shot when they pop out of the brush nosing the wind to see what I am. The sow was at 25 yards and the boar was at 29 yards. The speed of this bow makes a tremendous difference. Out of my diamond that arrow is only going 212fps on a good day. You are completely dependent on the weight to do the job with the diamond. I have not gotten a pass through or even through both shoulder blades with that diamond. Still super fast humane harvests through the shoulder blade, but not like with the core SR. I wish youtube would let me post pics in the comments to prove what I'm saying, but they won't.

Good review But no way you felt vibration for 3 sec Also how easy are these to tune? Is it easy to shift cams?

Any update on a video comparing the Lift 33 and the XLite 33?

Instead of saying draws likena different bow you have had on before. JUST TELL US WHAT BOW IT DRAWS LIKE

Vibration means nothing lol

Darton actually designed the Evolve Cam PSE is famous for. No wonder it has a smooth cycle

That's a very professional review. Beware the 7000 series aluminum alloys are up to 80% higher tensile strength material, and also more rigid (stiffer, higher E modulus), thus the residual vibration, it is normal and expected. It can be disipated by rubber dampener type stabilisers (doinkers). Do you think it would fit someone with 31 1/8" draw? Thanks

What bow did u settle on for the season?

Anyone know of anything that is similar that will fit my Bear Alaskan XT? Would like something I can shoot without removing the kickstand.

Really nice reviews... thorough information

Hey there, do you have any leads to get Hoyt bow from 2008,2010,2013,2014? Please let me know

Have to give kudos to Mathews and Scheels….. Mathews figured out the problem on the batch of limbs and they are replacing my bows and my sons bow!! Great customer service by both companies!

My LIFT33 has turned out to be somewhat disappointing because I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HOW IT SHOOTS…….. I made the comment earlier about my limbs being replaced 4 times and Mathews (SCHEELS The Colony TX) replaced my bow. Only to have the limbs on that bow splinter also. Those limbs were replaced on Monday and today (Wednesday) my limbs splintered again! Nothing out of the ordinary here; 31.5/72/85….. 29.5”/472 grain Sirius Gemini arrows w/ 50 grain podium titanium half out and 125 grain field point.

Probably the best bow reviews on RUclips. I wish you had a review like this of the Mathews Phase 4.

New subscriber! I enjoyed the in depth technical review. With an engineering background myself I'm looking forward to watching more of these. I shot an Alpha X 30 Saturday and enjoyed the draw cycle so much more than the Lift 29.5!

I really appreciate you depth! Had the opportunity to run a few arrows through this platform today (as well as a couple other models) I didn't notice the vibration you spoke of. I am really impressed with this bow. I do shoot an older model X33. The new ownership has really changed the game I was shocked by the difference. Thank you sir!

I just bought one. It’s so damn nice

Who is the other manufacturer with uncannely similar cam profiles? PSE? 🤙

Good luck on the channel. Just subscribed

Out of curiosity, since you have mentioned it. How wide are the limb sets on it compared to the other brands ? Bowtech seems to like wider limbs as well. Thanks

Great in depth review and well presented, subscribed.

One of the best bow reviews I've seen. Nice job.

GREAT Vid, mate!! Thank you very much for all your effort showing and mentioning all the data and informations! To me personally, the Bowtech and Darton compoundbows are very...very awesome bows. Have a nice day and kindest regards.

Love your reviews, what tool do you use to graph a bows power curve. Would love to do something similar that’s easier than a load scale and tape measure taking data points.

I shoot a Mathews v3 27 with a low profile 2pc quiver and my arrows are longer than the bow itself and now I can't use my Mathews engaged limb legs

Hope all is well at your end. Haven’t seen anything from you in a while.

Dude I love how detailed your reviews are ! Keep up the good work!

Very good review! No bla bla bla, no self presentation, just facts and numbers. Great

I think you have the BEST reviews of any I have seen on RUclips - but please add a subjective "shoot ability / practical field accuracy" comment when you wrap up this series. You might also show a 5 lb "tare" of your handheld bow scale. I have a bit of experience with scales and I don't think those scales are very precise. I've been shooting compounds more or less since they were invented and I am in process of considering an upgrade from my 2010 Model year Hoyt Maxxis. I've watched tons of reviews from all the likely suspects. Many folks have some kind of personal touch or angle that makes there videos interesting and of value. But, I must say again that I think your reviews are the best overall. And yet, you have among the fewest subscribers. I hope many others discover your channel soon. There is another fellow out there who does good reviews with value, and yet he does kind of half *arse measurements that frankly do not match your measurements, and he then penalizes bows if they don't match up to advertised specs. I value and appreciate what he does, but it often seems like he puts his thumb on the scale ... or maybe he is just a little sloppy (but he does not seem like a sloppy minded fellow...). In contrast, you actually use precise instruments and use them properly to take precise measurements, etc. Since you are being so precise, I would ask that you consider showing the viewers a "tare" of your handheld bow scale because in the video's I've watched so far, the weights are consistently coming in about .2 lbs "heavy" vs advertised weight. I don't trust hand held bow sales to be precise when measuring a dynamic hanging weight. I have a few scales and I KNOW they do not match each other. They might be "repeatable" but they are not super accurate. Your reviews of the high end, long ATA bows have been principally focused on measurable analytics with only a few subjective comments and those comments are typically backed up with subsequent measurements with "real" instruments. I hope that when you do your final wrap you add a longer discussion of your personal opinion on "shoot ability" or whatever you want to call it. Sadly, it seems as if there have not been significant gains made in raw speed since I purchased my Maxxis in 2010. In your own reviews, the "hot" Matthews Lift is "only" running about 7-8 fps faster than the Alpha X and 9 fps faster than the RX8 Ultra using IBO arrow weights that are rarely used for hunting... and that supposed speed "advantage" is immediately cut by about 2.5 fps when the Matthew speed is normalized (reduced) to account for its exaggerated 30.25 inch draw. BTW, the engineers at Matthew know darn well what the actual draw length is. No doubt the "rounding error" to a "30.25" draw was deliberate in order to add a few "fake" fps. Take those normalized arrow speeds (adjusted for Matthews longer draw length) and then look at the differences at normal hunting arrow weights of around 500 grains +/- perhaps 50 grains and the difference between the "hot" 33" Lift and the extremely forgiving RX8 Ultra is likely only about 5-6 fps at most (again after adjusting for draw length). Sure, I'll take all the speed I can get, but I won't trade much "shoot ability" for 5-7 fps. Speed appears to no longer be the key competitive driver on bow competition. Shootability and practical hunting accuracy are likely more important today.

Awesome review! Seems like Mathew’s is just missing the easy cam tuning features most manufacturers are going to.

Outstanding review bud! Subscribed and looking forward to more of your content.

Great review…I just bought one today and my archery shop is setting it up so I should have it in next day or two. New subscriber 😊

Have you decided on a bow for this season? I ended up ordering a sequel 33. The lift has a much more squared riser near the grip and I couldn’t get a comfortable thumb position

Very informative review. Good job. What you says about vibration i can see the bow comes without limb dampeners. I guess with stabs and some limb dampeners this bow must be incredibly quiet... Wnen i watch my old 2018 evolve the cams are so similar. I think evolve cams and others binary cams weren created by Darton. One of the smoothest 2024 bows The bow come with extra shims??? Very detailed review Thanks

I own a Mathews Chill-X (35” ATA) and it’s a reported 4.2 lbs bare. My Mathews NoCam HTR is 32” ATA and 3.8 lbs bare. Both could be considered “modern” bows, and Mathews themselves used to consider the NoCam to be their most accurate and efficient hunting bow (up to 2019 at least). I’m just making the point here that it IS possible to make a lighter and longer aluminum bow if you’re not building the riser to survive 80#s draw weight. Hoyt is doing just that with their Eclipse, which is light, fast, accurate, and maxes at 60#s. What the newer Mathews bows are is quieter. By a LOT. Several club members have the Lift, V3X, Tactic, and a few Bowtech Carbon bows too and they are all crazy quiet. Let me know if you’d like to test my Chill-X or NoCam HTR one day.

Just subbed to the channel!❤ What an amazing and in depth now review. I would so appreciate you doing sights/ attachments reviews as well. My wife and I are both buying a bow this year and I was floored the difference from this bow in store compared to my old hunting bow in my teens of the Matthew’s LX/ switchback circa 2004-2008. 20 years had completely changed how modern bows feel and I couldn’t be more excited to hunt again this year.

Those cams feel so close because Darton has U.S. patents that other “pse” companies pay to use.

Great reviews man! Can you do one on the SS?

sounds like a fantastic bow, but so is my v3x that my amazing wife gave me as a gift a year ago. I -think both are close so not changing this year or next....

Proper review, subbed straight up!

I’d love to see this review on the 29.5 versions

The best bow for 2024 is the bow I already own I am not paying over a thousand dollars for something that only costs 3 hundred to make

You don't have the vibration supresser on the bow and thats how it comes. I've shot this bow and didn't get the vibration anywere near what your talking about although vibration is subjective , good review .

Can't wait for my alpha X to come in!!

Just got my first compound bow. And it’s the Alpha X 33 Tombstone. Feels like a tank in hand and looks like a fighter jet. I absolutely love this bow. Had a hard time choosing between Mathews Lift and Alpha X. But glad i went with the Hoyt.

Your draw graph was very interesting. When I shot the Lift 33 I felt two humps one about the 30% through then again just before it dumped into the valley. It wasn't near as smooth as I thought it would be. Mathews bows just aren't for me. I gave them a fair shot, I shot the Mathews twice as much as the others.
