  • We went to a couple of stores and luckily we found a great bow to swap mine out with. We were at The Archery Den. These guys are awesome. If you live close to Middle TN, give them a call.

    I've had similar experiences with bows. I shot a couple Bears (Legion and Status EKO), then tried a Prime Black 1, then a Bowtech SR6. I then went on a used bow buying/selling/trading spree as well as shooting new bows at the shops and tried a VXR, V3X33, Phase 4, Mach 1, Levitate, Rx7 Ultra, VTM, Omnia, Carbon One, Reckoning 35, and SS34. Of all of those the RX7 Ultra, Omnia, and SS34 felt the best to me, but none felt any better than my SR6. It just fits and holds so well, and has plenty of speed at a 60 pound draw.
    It's all about finding the bow that fits YOU the best!

      I tried to do that man. I wanted to do the EC2 cams for comfort. PSE told my local bow shop that it couldn't be done since i had the s2 cams. At that point I was just done with it and frustrated.
      You know man, there were a few things I didn't get to try Bowtech being at the top of the list, along with hoyt and darton (out of curiousity). The issue really was money, the bow shop I went to was the only bow shop locally that would take the EVO as a trade. So I just stuck with them, but honestly man, I've been shooting this prime and it just seems to get better each day. I'm so grateful. It's awful having a bow that doesn't mesh with you when you want to keep getting better.

But if you get used to that, good luck holding it if you are waiting on your hunting shot. Just wasn't for me. But you def wouldn't like it.

    I prefer a longer ATA bow. I shot a 41" ATA Mathews Signature for 17 seasons. I could rest my chin on it when sitting in a tree stand. Still miss that a bit. LOL! I have no brand loyalty. I shot all brands when I bought my Prime Impact in 2013. 35" ATA, 6.25" brace height, 340 fps, & 4.5 pounds. Today's longer axle Prime bows have about the same specs. Spec-wise bows have changed very little in over 10 years. I don't see myself buying another bow in my lifetime. Longer ATA just feels more stable, less string angle, & smoother to me. There a reason target bow have longer ATA. I have never seen the need for short bow, unless you want to hunt from a low ground blind. I hope you enjoy your new Prime. Lifetime free cables/string is a nice perk, too.

      @SouthernDrawTN  4 месяца назад

      How tall are you if you dont mind me asking? 41 ATA seems like such a large bow, but i've never shot anything over 33 so take that with a grain of salt. Glad you found the bow for you, but really curious how tall you are vs. the 41 ATA bow lol. Thank you for your comment. God Bless.

    What happened with the XF is you ordered the wrong cams. You got the E2 cam, which is the fastest cam, but the draw cycle is trash. The good cam for that bow is the EC, which is the evolve cam.

    • @SouthernDrawTN
      @SouthernDrawTN  4 месяца назад

      I got the S2 cams, which is the fastest cams. But yea either, way, the crappiest draw cycle. I tried getting the EC2 cams put ont heir but when my bow shop called PSE they told him they didn't recomend it, so idk. But before this, I thought I had a bow with a rough draw cycle "bear Resurgence Dual Cam" and boy was I wrong lol.

    • @arodriguez2707
      @arodriguez2707 4 месяца назад

      @SouthernDrawTN isn't S2 the short draw version of the E2? I was under the impression that that's the case. I run a Prime ION and I'm real happy with it. The old primes like mine are Fire and hard to find 2nd hand. The newer bears look good, so do the Elites even tho their heavy compared to my ion.

    • @SouthernDrawTN
      @SouthernDrawTN  4 месяца назад

      Bro, that's the whole reason I ordered the damn things. But for whatever reason, S2 are the "speedcams" and roughest to shoot for sure. I've had about 10 people tell me this after I bought the bow. PJ on Lancaster, I thought said exactly what you are saying so idk man. All I know is, they are extremely rough. Yea I can't wait to go pick my Prime up. I will be trying Elite again, that wasn't a fair comparison. I came from a Bear Resurgence, and it was a good bow. Their customer service is kind of bad though. Thanks for your comments. @@arodriguez2707

      @d123avek1 4 месяца назад +1

      @@SouthernDrawTN Yes. It looks to me like that’s why you about cracked the cams off that Elite. It’s something I myself have to really watch when I go from my 62# longbow to my 60# 85% let-off Mathews V3- I’ll load up back tension out of habit, and about rip the string off the bow! Those who you shot with in-person should be able to see this occur easily. It’s hard to tell on video. But it could also be why you have so much bow arm wobble after full draw. when you come back like that and smash off the back wall, you’ll resonate the bow so badly it’ll take 5-6+ seconds to settle it down again, if you can at all. Hope that helps

      I started shooting Prime about 2019. Right away fell in love with the center grip. I was OK with the dual cam stuff, but I knew it was not ideal. When they switched to a "typical" cam with the Inline, it became an incredible platform. The Inline got a bad rap due to litigation, but my son shoots an Inline 3 lights out (usually in the 290s Vegas scoring with no stabilizer).
