Great review. I bought the Basin in September and love it. Elite then comes out with the Omnia. After seeing the release video from Elite and after watching your review I went out to my local Elite dealer (from whom I bought the Basin) last weekend (December 17) and demoed the Omnia. 2 hours later I walked out with the Omnia. This bow blew away anything I have ever shot. I love this bow and with all the tune ability the Omnia offers I will be shooting this bow for years to come.
@@BackyardBows Agreed. When I bought the basin I got the RTH package that came with all the accessories from CBE for it. Great shooter right out of the gate. Best “budget” but not budget shooting bow I have ever bought.
I always say I’ll be shooting my elite for years to come then they come out with a bow that’s better then what I have and I end up with a new bow lol. It’s a yearly battle
Definitely my favorite bow review channel on YT. Just an average guy with no dog in the fight. They all start out good like this. What I would like to see is a comparison between the speed mods and comfort mods that are available for the Elite bows. Word on the street is that you drop 8-9fps going to the comfort mods but that should increase your all day shooting comfort. And for me, that’s what I come to Elite for, if I wanted a speed bow, I’d go somewhere else. Either way, those arrow speed numbers are damn impressive. I shoot 29.5”, 70lbs and a 495gn arrow so those numbers are pretty close to what I’d be getting
Prolly exactly the same numbers and I actually would like to see that as also let me try and order some, I shoot my bow so much that was the only down side for me personally was it was hard to shoot a lot on a row
I'm a Bowtech person myself. With that said, I've shot the Elite bows and these bows are beautiful! Your seeing them more and more on the professional shoot offs! Like Bowtech, I live there technology and what they are doing!!!! Mathews does remarkable marketing over everyone! The trade off thou is more money in technology versus marketing! I'll stick with technology any day.
@backyardbows thanks for the review! I just got the same exact color and bow New Heavily Discounted from a Dealer online. 850 with shipping! Currently own a PSE Mach 34, Hoyt Carbon RX4 Turbo ( shot only 20 times and for sale), PSE NXT 33 Dudley model and a Bowtech Realm. Looking forward to this bow more than any I have purchased in a long time.
JUST bought a Terrain 2 weeks ago. It's my first move away from Bear in almost 20yrs. I shot the Terrain, Drive NXT, Amplify, Torrex, and WT Pro, left with the Elite. Waiting for my local dealer to get an Omnia on the shelf so I can go shoot it. May pass the Terrain down to my son after this season and nab up one of these.
@@BackyardBows More than happy to offer mine up for a review if you havent already bought one. It certainly doesnt feel much like a budget offering, I dont have much of a stable to compare to though. After shooting the 5 bows back to back I definitely noticed a quality and "feel" difference. It just felt good. I am going to look at the Omnia this week.....may snip one up as the Terrain has got me excited about shooting again and the Omnia would only pour fuel on the fire. Looking into leagues now.
1st 🤔 - Elite Omnia vs PSE Omen, sounds like you might have liked this draw cycle better with slightly better speed, 4-6fps. Some of the IBO calculators would make the Omnia effectively a 360 ibo at 70.3lbs DW, 29.5" DL and 500grn arrow. Omnia vs Enkore, looked like a 17-20fps bump in speed but at a cost of comfort over a volume of shots. Impressive that Elite has a speed bow that does so well with a 500grn arrow and has so mamy positive reviews about draw feel. Thanks for the great videos. 👍
You just put me over the edge. I've been researching on what bow to bow next year. This is it. Ive been a mazhews guy since I started bow hunting but I'm making the jump!!
Put in the field several weeks ago and did not disappoint, absolutely loved the omnia, if elite advertised like Mathews it would be the top bow of the year
@@BackyardBows I HAVE THE OMNIA,( JUST GOT LAST THURSDAY. ) I'VE SHOT THE ERA. WITH PERFORMANCE MOD THEY ARE VERY STIFF FOR ME @70. I ACTUALLY HAD TO BACK OFF TWO TURNS TO BE COMORTABLE. NO WHERE THE EASE OF AN RX7 ULTRA. I DID DO A SIDE BY WITH THE RX7. HBX PRO CAM WAS SMOOTHER DRA FOR ME PERSONNALY ( PULLED 72# ) AS EASY AS THE ERA. MY bUDDIES THAT SHOT THE ERA WITH COMFORT MODS SAID NIGHT AND DAY IN THE DRAW. I'LL BE NTERESTED TO SEE YOUR REVIEW. LOVE THE HONEST DOWN TO EARTH REVIEWS.
@@troygruber8325 Easy on the "CAPS LOCK". Loved everything about the RX-7 Ultra until I chrony'd it; Back calculated IBO - from Draw Wt & Arrow Wt, it's = 315 !! I'm not a speed freak, but a Hard ====> NO !!! Hope it helps, John
Great review!! Bought an Enkore last year and ended up with a lemon after 3 month wait… Had a very bad left tear (left handed) so I sent it back to the dealer and they shimmed the cam, change limb deflection, took the SET appart as per Elite tech advice. They gave it back to me and said « it’s far to be perfect but it’s better and did everything we can do ». Was really disappointed, was hoping they could trade the bow for another Enkore, but they offered nothing, so ended up selling it at a low price to someone who dont care about tuning… I am sure they are great bow but I feel their customer service letted me down on that one. No more Elites for me 🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for sharing your experience, did they manage to correct the left tear, there are so many companies that would have just swapped u out, that would have been frustrating
@@BackyardBows no they never been able to get rid of it… very frustrating and long process. Switched to a Mathews V3 and was very easy to setup. Will probably switch to Bowtech this year🤟🏻
Another question and concern???? Since you torque down on the bow limb( so to speak) , which what I understand is the bow limb changes in positioning to tune for your bullet holes, what does it do to the limb afterwards???? Like Bowtech the actual cam moves left or right with out torquing the limb unless I don't understand????? Thanks
My 2, 3 & 4 bows were Elite ( Century, Option 6, then "The Ritual" which I still Love). Im currently running the "bowtech solution" but am thirsty for my next Elite. For years my fellow archers were skeptical about Elite but I never understood why. From my 1st to my current they have been stand out to me.
I also feel like a lot of companies wouldn't have put that quarter increment on a honeycoat they would keep that for their top of the line flagship Target Rig But also so did hoyt
Love your bow reviews man! Much appreciated! I watched your review on the SS 34 and asked you about it for guys like me with a shorter draw length. I’m around 26”-26.5” and you had mentioned checking out the CP 30. How would you rate this bow for the shorter draw length crowd? I know it’s 2” longer than the CP 30, but with a 6” brace height and the insane speeds coming out of this bow? Your thoughts???
Shorter draw length it would definitely help make up some fps, draw was stiff at my poundage and length I would recommend seeing how it feels at a shorter draw length
Outstanding Review as Usual 👌 So are you telling me that the Shot Cycle with the Omnia is better than the Sexy Bow Beast SR350 ?? 🤨 Be vewy vewy caweful answering that question sir !!! 😉 I had a 'minor' accident in August on a 3D Course - I Blew Her Up - didn't check my arrow, and Kablooie !!! Fortunately nobody was hurt. Cams were a crooked as a question mark and the strings were toast. But we have the Technology so I rebuilt her: Better, Faster, Stronger !!!; Now ====> The **'SEXY BIONIC BOW BEAST' !!!** Just PUNISHING X's at 30 and 40 Yards and Pie Plate-ing at 110. Gonna take the Omnia for a TEST DRIVE Saturday (Hopefully). Love the Micro Adjust Draw Length and Let-Off, also the Limb Stop option; the only advantages of it vs Sexy Rachael; Tune-ability is a Wash with the Deadlock Technology and I do favor the 33" ATA vs 32" with The Omnia. (ps. I do own an Elite Impulse 31 - The Draw Cycle is "Unique" Lols - I LOVE THE WAY IT SUCKS !!, not Joking. There's another Elephant in the Room - Elite's 'Notoriously' Atrocious Customer Support - What's Up With That ?? 😕 I'll give her a more than Fair evaluation. I'll report back. Keep'em Comin 👍
Wound up getting an Omnia, passed the Terrain down to my son as said would probably happen. Shoots great, FAST, quiet, holds really nice. It's everything the EnVision should have been (it's still a nice bow too). Only issue Im having is the LTR is set WAY right causing the cable to rub on the cam when I draw. I may try to get everything back to center and start over with tuning.
Alot of people including me have the cables rubbing against the mods/cam top and bottom I had to shim mine with 2 thin shims on left and two thick on right now it's awesome and no cable rubbing
@@BackyardBows if you email elite they updated the tune instructions saying this and if the moving of shims didn't help then they recommend as a last option to swap limbs opposite side
How's this bow compare to the option 6? I shoot an option 6 also an elite xxl and a pure. I have Mathews wake and a try 7. All of my eleit bows shoot niver than the Mathews. The option 6 does brake over harder than Mathews bows but is much more solid at the shot
Have one ordered, you said you went to 30 and added an extra 1/4 inch? Was it possible to go beyond 30? I am a 30 to 30.5 draw length and am a little worried it will be a touch short but am hoping maxing out let-off gets me that last bit of length I need.
really like elite, I had the Revol, Revol XL, Echelon 39, and now a Rezult 38, missing a slightly smaller "do it all" bow 3d, TAC, hunting........ I am tall (6'3") with a long 30 3/4 draw and prefer less extreme string angle so I am thinking about pulling the trigger on an Athens Vista 35 but the Omnia looks like a great bow. The day after I order the Athens Im sure Elite will announce 35/36" bows LOL
My only hesitation is with all of those adjustments would be easier for the bow to come out of wack after shooting maybe one of those screws comes lose or something
They are honestly weirdly similar in performance, specs, speed, and feel. If you like tuning your own bow I would choose the omnia. If you like the best quality money can buy I would go vtm
Love your stuff sir! So Omnia over Envision for hunting you figure? I’ve only ever owned one bow. It’s a 2011 Diamond Outlaw. Been fortunate to harvest everything from deer to bear to cougar to moose and elk. Want to upgrade and now think I’m going after an elite. Thoughts? Please keep these great videos coming.
Yes louder than the other elites but i don’t think it factors in to much with hunting, I tagged two deer with it this season one at 25-30 yards the other at 45 and it hammered
@@BackyardBows Thanks, WOW two deer! I cant wait to shoot it. I am deployed now with Army. I have an old Z28 Elite and really love it, but you know the upgrade would be soo good!
Man I got a ventum pro 30 and it fits me great! Good back wall but a little stiff, completely dead in hand. I think the elites have a better draw cycle, I shot the v3x and I think it's a good shooting bow but not the most comfortable out there. Good luck!
Going all out for the first bow, I would say if you havnt yet shoot all of them, what a great year to get into bowhunting, also so many factors to be considered before I could recommend one of these over another
Please take my advice. Please factor in the cost of a $250 release, damn good arrows and broadheads, and GET A COACH! Archery is a discipline. Equipment, form, and mental control are the main factors. To increase precision (meaning the group size) get a bow that fits you perfectly (a good coach will help tremendously with that), learn to handload your own arrows (it's very similar to handloading rifle ammo), and gain mental control of your shot. Best of luck!
Thank you all for the input! Yes, I kept $ and bow gear in mind. I actually spent a few days at different shops trying budget bows until I shot the flagships, and that's when I decided to just spend the extra now from how much better they shoot imo. Waiting to try the Omnia and Sr350 before I can make a final decision. Thanks again!
Seems like bows companies are releasing year around, just like anything a brand new bow can be expensive, sometimes shops will have a few left over from last year or even year before which u can get a brand new bow for a discount
@@jerryberkel8421 heartland bow shop is the best elite shop around, summit archery good for Mathews- Hoyt- and Bowtech, Denny Dennis always has bear archery in stock
Being a Elite dealer, I’m pleasantly surprised Elite has come out with a bow with faster speeds. Short DL archers will definitely benefit. Always a solid company to do business with .. Great job Elite!!
I find hoyt and Mathews bows arw priced a little holywood little to much for the name because of who is shooting them and if you follow thier career they shot just as good with other companies. Which dont make the bows worth as much as they are charging. Yes they are nice but when other companies can make similar products for almost half the price kinda lets you know that the machining is not what your paying for.
I always said elite run a hair short I even gave myself a quarter inch putting me at 301/4 maybe I should have just given myself the half, I do like a slight bend guess that’s just preference
Curious how you would evaluate Matt Stutan’s form, the armless archer? Repeating is the number one thing in archery. If you aren’t familiar with him, google him. If he shoots comfortably this way and he can repeat it, that’s the most important thing to remember.
@@nathanbrooks4324 well, it is obvious his bow is bent a little more than needed and when he draws he brings everything back so maybe to get better peep alignment. But, like EVERYONE KNOWS- it’s whatever you can repeat shot after shot. IMO
@@timbow50 then why didn’t you say at the end of all you were commenting, “but hey, if this is how you shoot the best, keep perfecting”? I’m sure you realize that possibly the best archer in the country right now, Kyle Douglas, collapses his bow shoulder into his body when he shoots? And that Chris Perkins, who is an unbelievable accomplished professional archer, shoots at least 1.5” longer than he should for that perfect T-shape form? You probably should’ve asked backyard bows if he has had an injury in the past that hurts his arm/shoulder/back? Look at the widespread significantly different forms used at a world archery event and it becomes very obvious the only right way is the way you can repeat the most consistently. Hope you have a great day Tim!
Crazy cause elite bow Tech them too there have ever been like a big recognized name you can recognize the name in the sport I mean they have but they haven't it's always been Matthew's PSE or oink now votech and elite are out doing the other Companies it's kind of crazy
Bought one immediately after intro. Took 6 weeks to come in. Best bow I’ve owned
Great choice I loved hunting with it last season
Just went to the shop today and shot the omnia. I put my order in, can't wait until it comes in. Thank you for your great reviews. keep it up. 👍
❤❤Your review is by far the most enjoyable, humble bow review video of the season. Gotta love Elite💘
Godspeed 🕊
Appreciate the feedback
Very honest and informative video. Just picked up and set up my Omnia today! Absolutely loving it! Elite has knocked this one out of the park.
Same I’m currently hunting with it as well
Love the adjustability of the bow! So much to tinker with
I honestly do to
Totally dig your channel and am stoked you got an Omnia.
Elites come with good strings as well.
They need more dealers...
Same here brother pumped
Look at you … getting that last one. Excellent review. I would love to have one. We have a lot of land for hunting in Maryland.
My man, great channel, just found you today. Please keep on reviewing!
Definitely, we plan to, already have a lot in the works
I heard one think this is the best bow out there this year. Looking forward to trying it.

One small improvement i would make for next year is get rid of the e clips and go with axle caps. 302 @ 29.5" with a 500gr arrow? Jeez
I have a short draw length 27in would the omina be better than phase 4 29?
Have one ordered, you said you went to 30 and added an extra 1/4 inch? Was it possible to go beyond 30? I am a 30 to 30.5 draw length and am a little worried it will be a touch short but am hoping maxing out let-off gets me that last bit of length I need.
Man U will have to let me know Will be close
Was this with the comfort mod or performance mod? Also, did you get a MSRP on the carbon elite yet?
Perf comes standard, that’s what this is, u have to order smooth mod, and I think he said right around 1700.00
really like elite, I had the Revol, Revol XL, Echelon 39, and now a Rezult 38, missing a slightly smaller "do it all" bow 3d, TAC, hunting........ I am tall (6'3") with a long 30 3/4 draw and prefer less extreme string angle so I am thinking about pulling the trigger on an Athens Vista 35 but the Omnia looks like a great bow. The day after I order the Athens Im sure Elite will announce 35/36" bows LOL
Man I really liked the Athens bow we had in here, and it always seems to be like that lol
What is that streamline single bevel broadhead in the intro? PS, thanks for the review.
Some stainless steel field points, you can get on Amazon for pretty cheap but they have a rubber liner so they don’t come loose and they dont rust
Do you ever do a speed test with 550 gr? Trying to decide between the omina, lift29 or core sr.
We do now we test a 440g, 500g, and a 560g
My only hesitation is with all of those adjustments would be easier for the bow to come out of wack after shooting maybe one of those screws comes lose or something
Three screws to lock it all down I would say the micro adjustment don’t have a affect on securing the mods
If there was a comparison between the Omnia and the bowtech ss 34 what would you choose?
Havnt shot the ss34 but I can imagine, I’m still thinking the omnia for me but would love to shoot the ss34 soon.
Brandon,
Now that you have shot both the Omnia and the VTM which bow is better, quieter, and more accurate.
They are honestly weirdly similar in performance, specs, speed, and feel. If you like tuning your own bow I would choose the omnia. If you like the best quality money can buy I would go vtm
How is the string angle? Does it shoot like a bit longer axle to axle bow?
Right where I like to be, I have a long draw so anything 30-32 is perfect for me
Does the Omnia have integrated rest and site capability like the Hoyt & Matthews ? Didn’t hear you touch on that
No it does not
@@BackyardBows thanks
I noticed on some of the videos on the omnia there’s a click at full draw but not on yours. Is that something you noticed at all?
No I don’t remember anything like that
Love your stuff sir! So Omnia over Envision for hunting you figure? I’ve only ever owned one bow. It’s a 2011 Diamond Outlaw. Been fortunate to harvest everything from deer to bear to cougar to moose and elk. Want to upgrade and now think I’m going after an elite. Thoughts? Please keep these great videos coming.
Shoot both but I would take the omnia over envision, both of them I loved
Does this have the performance/comfort mod option or just 1?
Performance come standard 70-90 % let off and a smooth 75% let off can be ordered
Is this bow any louder than others, I feel that the bow may be faster, but if it is louder, it might negate the speed advantage. Your thoughts.
Yes louder than the other elites but i don’t think it factors in to much with hunting, I tagged two deer with it this season one at 25-30 yards the other at 45 and it hammered

Im torn between the omnia, ventum pro 30, sr350, v3x..thoughts and opinions appreciated since it will be my first bow. Ty!
Man I got a ventum pro 30 and it fits me great! Good back wall but a little stiff, completely dead in hand. I think the elites have a better draw cycle, I shot the v3x and I think it's a good shooting bow but not the most comfortable out there. Good luck!
Going all out for the first bow, I would say if you havnt yet shoot all of them, what a great year to get into bowhunting, also so many factors to be considered before I could recommend one of these over another
Shoot em all if you can before yo7 decide, every person's different
Please take my advice. Please factor in the cost of a $250 release, damn good arrows and broadheads, and GET A COACH! Archery is a discipline. Equipment, form, and mental control are the main factors. To increase precision (meaning the group size) get a bow that fits you perfectly (a good coach will help tremendously with that), learn to handload your own arrows (it's very similar to handloading rifle ammo), and gain mental control of your shot. Best of luck!
Thank you all for the input! Yes, I kept $ and bow gear in mind. I actually spent a few days at different shops trying budget bows until I shot the flagships, and that's when I decided to just spend the extra now from how much better they shoot imo. Waiting to try the Omnia and Sr350 before I can make a final decision. Thanks again!

You should run those 560 grains arrow and 500 grain arrow
I’m usually right at 500
Any issues with cables rubbing while you tuned yours?
Watched ethos review I touched on omnia cable rub issue a little
@@BackyardBows Got it thanks!
What type of release are you using?
Spot hog wise guy with the boa strap 👌
One last question, this vs the V3X......pro's/cons?
Tuning for one a lot easier and simpler than the v3x, good 15 fps faster, and I think holds better personal opinion, go shoot both
@@BackyardBows Shot the Mathews, going this week to get some time on the Omnia. I'll be on the couch for a few nights.
@@jayminer9416 did you decide what you liked better?
You're a bad influence I just bought a Omnia! Haha what kind of rest is on your bow I can't tell is it a ripcord? Thank you
Yes ripcord I like a ripcord in the feild
When is the best time of year to buy a bow?
Seems like bows companies are releasing year around, just like anything a brand new bow can be expensive, sometimes shops will have a few left over from last year or even year before which u can get a brand new bow for a discount
What’s the best bow setup under a $1000?
@@BackyardBows I’m thinking about buying a bow and only want to spend around $1000
Full set up ?
@@BackyardBows like a rth bow. Sight rest stabilizer
Where do you buy your bows?
eBay, pro shops, online community connects
@Backyard Bows I ask because outside of a shop in Alton I haven't really found a good pro shop nearby
@@jerryberkel8421 heartland bow shop is the best elite shop around, summit archery good for Mathews- Hoyt- and Bowtech, Denny Dennis always has bear archery in stock
Lol. That bear in the crotch. Lol
😂
Carbon Elite? When?
I have a order in I’m hoping mid November
Being a Elite dealer, I’m pleasantly surprised Elite has come out with a bow with faster speeds. Short DL archers will definitely benefit. Always a solid company to do business with .. Great job Elite!!
@@BackyardBows Wow cant wait fir that I want a carbon bow for my wife but don’t want to walk away from elite archery so this is good news
GREAT REVIEW ! Which bow do you prefer the Apa Mamba 31 or Elite Omnia ? THANKS FOR ALL THE REVIEWS !
@@juicecarlson948 very diff bows, but omnia is what I used in the field this season and man it hammered
Bowtech solution vs omnia?
Great question. Anyone?
I find hoyt and Mathews bows arw priced a little holywood little to much for the name because of who is shooting them and if you follow thier career they shot just as good with other companies. Which dont make the bows worth as much as they are charging. Yes they are nice but when other companies can make similar products for almost half the price kinda lets you know that the machining is not what your paying for.
Draw length is short for you. Bow shoulder is high. You are bringing the bow back to you after you draw.
I always said elite run a hair short I even gave myself a quarter inch putting me at 301/4 maybe I should have just given myself the half, I do like a slight bend guess that’s just preference
Curious how you would evaluate Matt Stutan’s form, the armless archer? Repeating is the number one thing in archery. If you aren’t familiar with him, google him. If he shoots comfortably this way and he can repeat it, that’s the most important thing to remember.
@@nathanbrooks4324 well, it is obvious his bow is bent a little more than needed and when he draws he brings everything back so maybe to get better peep alignment. But, like EVERYONE KNOWS- it’s whatever you can repeat shot after shot. IMO
@@timbow50 then why didn’t you say at the end of all you were commenting, “but hey, if this is how you shoot the best, keep perfecting”? I’m sure you realize that possibly the best archer in the country right now, Kyle Douglas, collapses his bow shoulder into his body when he shoots? And that Chris Perkins, who is an unbelievable accomplished professional archer, shoots at least 1.5” longer than he should for that perfect T-shape form? You probably should’ve asked backyard bows if he has had an injury in the past that hurts his arm/shoulder/back? Look at the widespread significantly different forms used at a world archery event and it becomes very obvious the only right way is the way you can repeat the most consistently. Hope you have a great day Tim!
I always have great days, especially when I’m being schooled by someone half my age.
Feel like I need one of these 🤣
I feel that every week lol
Crazy cause elite bow Tech them too there have ever been like a big recognized name you can recognize the name in the sport I mean they have but they haven't it's always been Matthew's PSE or oink now votech and elite are out doing the other Companies it's kind of crazy
Good for hunters more companies competing for our business will help level out this prices to
Crotch shot!!!
It'd take an act of God to get me to change from my kure lol
If something suits u no need to change
