Great job with your reviews. Short, accurate, real. I'm a USA Archery Level 4 Coach and always look for more information to pass on to my students to help them improve. One thing I appreciated from you is your explanation of expansion to soot a hinge release, with emphasis on pushing with your bow arm. Good advise. Thanks. Thomas Powell, Central Oregon Archery Academy.

Impressed that you keep cranking these reviews out, good reviews at that. 👍

I'm glad to see you're doing an honest review on all these bows , I've been watching your channel from day one. Keep it up, my tall friend

Awesome job, always looking forward to your next video!

Keep up the great work enjoy your videos and knowledge with all things archery 🤘🏻

Glad you do the draw weight check now, its good to see where there set at as you know some might draw heavier than stated some less from the factory, great work as always

You put out some very good information in your videos keep on doing what you are doing.

New to the sport. You’re my go to guys for information and question I need answered. Excellent job.

Been waiting for this!

Yessssss a review for us big guys.

Thanks for the review

Super good job! Thanks. Keep it up.

My heart sinks every time I see someone draw a bow without an arrow

Smoothest draw cycle at 31.5” I’ve felt in 36 years of bowhunting. I shot it head to head vs. my Reign 7 (IBO 340) at 31.25” DL with 536 and 573 grain hunting arrows and the XL was just 2-3 fps slower with a whisker biscuit. Plenty fast for me and easy on the shoulders. 👍

Been waiting on this 👍🏼 knew it wud not make speed! Although, simply cannot beat the dead-lock tuning system!

Great review

I wish this guy was local to me he would be doing all of my bow tuning and sales. It's hard to find someone who gives the equipment the attention needed to be perfect!

I bought one a month ago after searching and searching for a 32 dl iam super pleased with it

I don’t know how you can shoot the bow and look for vibration while those tags are hanging off the front of the bow.

love watching your reviews, definitely in the market for a new bow if you had to pick one with no budget what would you go with as far as smooth and relatively fast?

Waiting to see your review of the Hoyt Hyline.

your speed test is all over the place - like it was with your WB vs drop away rest tests. Margins in order of 8 fps would compromise your accuracy at longer shots significantly if the variation would be so high (which I don't believe it is). Your setup and the chrono with the light kit will very likely get affected by the fluorescent lamps - especially the one on the left side ("left" wrt view of the vid) will have an impact. If you read the manual of the chrono I recall it states somewhere that fluorescent lights likely have a negative impact on the readings. If the lamps are some kind of modern LED kits I would still test the speed when the chrono is shaded (just use a card box with bottom and 1 side removed) from the lamp light - you will likely get a much more consistent reading.

Would love to see a side by side comparison video between this bow and the v3x 33

I agree I wish they would have made this more for the average DL. With my shorter, 27.5 DL I think the sr350 checks more boxes for my draw length. Thanks for the video, spot on as usual.

You've got to be kidding me! There are hundreds of bow options for people with short draw lengths. In the rare event that a company makes a bow that accommodates archers with a longer than average draw, you complain that it doesn't work for people with T-Rex arms who already have an abundance of options available?

Mr Joshua Jones!!! Can you please do a video with your opinions on the new Twin Turbo? All your videos are golden. I've learned a lot

Just bought one of these today. Shot a fmj. 33" draw at 70lbs on comfort setting. 290fps.

Any suggestions on getting my wife an upgrade looking at the prima and eclipse but I don't want to limit her to just those 2 choices watch all your videos love the Intel and presentation

Love the vids. Especially the ones where you are helping Tim become a better archer. I have a request for a video. How about one on finding the correct draw length. Not one that stops at posture, string on tip of nose, corner of mouth. One that tells you how to really fine tune draw length and recognize that you are there? I cant seem to get my hold pattern to be inside the Vegas 10 ring. I'm thinking draw length is a bit off. Whatever help you can provide will be greatly appreciated!! Keep up the great work on you tube.😃

If you are drawing and coming into a solid anchor point, then it may not be your draw length. Try a longer stabilizer or a stabilizer with more point weight. It may help limit movement.

Hey thanks for the review! You mentioned there are better options for a 31" draw length, what would you recommend for a 31", but same geometry, smoothness, ease of tunability. Cheers!

As someone in a 31.5"-32" draw, it sucks that most companies make a 30.5"-31 flagship and a +33". I keep going back to my "Blow"tech Boss like an abusive relationship. It is a 32" max draw and 36" Axle to Axle. The longer AtoA is nice for string angle and holding, but it's on its 3rd set of limbs in 8yrs. Thanks for the great content, makes me want to head into the shop and try to move on from my current emotional terrorist of a bow.

Hoping you can get your hands on an Athens Vista 31.

Dear Bow Manufacturers, We as bow hunters pride ourselves on... cutting the sh*t. There may have been a day in the past when you were right there with us. Where did you get off that track? Please cut the sh*t. Bring honesty back to the speed ratings. It has to bother you at some point when you try to reconcile your deception with the empty words "everyone else is doing it". Please give us honesty. We deserve it. We have earned it. You just might regain our respect if you do. Love, Your Customers

Thanks for the great review,, I got your point getting shorter draw length 26,5-32" for this bow,, but as it is, it's really hard to find any bow above 31,5", not to mention for 33" draw length.. :)) So maybe some credit for the developer and for being able to buy one quality bow with longer draw length given with minor set back... Maybe if this sells well, then there is point giving in more money for development.. I also like your opinions and contradiction with Ranch 🧚‍♂ Because I believe, I find myself somewhere from between and I get a lot from both... So thanks for that!!!! Yes, it is not on the plain view but noticeable 🤗🤫😬

Just a question, I noticed on some bows that you speed test the numbers are very close to each other. This bow you just tested it ranged from 300 fps to 308 fps. What is causing this larger inconsistency in some bows?

Wow! That was a let down. I’m headed to Lancaster archery tomorrow to shoot some bows. I was very excited about this bow till I watched this. Thanks for the great videos and honest reviews. Your the only one I have alerts set for. Thanks again!

Seems in similar league as the Mathews Atlas from last year and the new Hoyt Highline: all of them allow very long DL and BH in large (this Bowtech not so much) ATA platforms with speeds around 293 to 316 at #70 x 30" x 350 grains. It could seems to be "not much" but if you're shooting them at 32"+ DL with high poundage they will deliver plenty of KE to the arrows. Very solid choices for hybrid hunting/3D/target if you don't want to use multiple rigs.

Im really looking at this bow recently but ive got a little over 31.5" DL.. im hoping to find something that has a closer max length to mine that way i know im maxing out the speed.

Gday there Mfjj would it be possible to do a speed test at 32” draw please considering it’s for LD dudes

Have you ever tried comparing your chrono with another persons? I know I've seen some that have a pretty good difference between the two. Maybe its lighting but your speeds compared to other channels seem to be a little slower on avg.

I'm really hoping that you review the x80

How does it compare to the atlas on draw cycle? I like the tuning system on the bow tech cams but the dampeners just look like they are extremely easy to rip off and loose. A ~3 FPS ibo speed is sadly not enough to make a difference. Also, how does the roller guard tuning system work? Is it worth it?

Would be nice to see these long draw designed bows shot closer to a long draw setting so we can really see how the bow performs at 32-33”. Maybe get a long draw guy to shoot it so you can provide that info.

I tested speeds at 33" on my channel.

Have you ever had a bow make IBO numbers on the speed?

what is your views on FOC, ,,? is there a " best " spot for optimum arrow flight ?

so I'm a 31-31.5 draw length....do you have recommendation from Bowtech that would be a better solution for me. I'm currently shooting a Bowtech Insanity CPXL, and I'm really liking the Bowtech lineup. I shot a Hoyt RX7 Ultra Carbon at TAC, it was nice but like you pointed out it's not $1900 nice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What type of bow do you recommend for a person who is short in stature and is a archery bow person

Is IBO tested with whisker biscuits?

what bow had the less shock

Mr MFJJ. The Revolt has the limb lock system on the side of the limbs that you are supposed to loosen before you make any limb bolt adjustments. If you dont the bow will be out of tune. Might explain why it sounds like crap and has vibration?

Would like to see the numbers and feel of the bow on 32 or 33 inches.

I tested speeds at 33" on my channel.

This or sr350?? 30” DL user looking for a hybrid

It'd be so great to see what that thing shoots at 32.5 and 33". I could somewhat guess what it would be normally but if it comes alive at the longer DL's then it would sure be nice to know since that's what a whole lot of guys like myself are looking at knowing. I have one on order but if its gonna be 24 fps under the 350 fps at 33" i may rethink this purchase. Companies that miss hitting their rated speeds is not an accident & are not doing themselves and favors. I like a lot of other things about this model but it needs to be close to rated speeds. Wish it was 35 or 36" ata to. I think they missed the boat on that to. They gotta have a late release up their sleeves because 33" ata for their LD hunting bow just doesn't seem to cut it especially for Bowtech.

I picked mine up yesterday morning, set it up at a 31.5" draw length and did some speed testing. It's a legitimate 330 IBO bow on the performance setting but performs really well at longer draw lengths. I'll be uploading a speed test video with different arrow weights to my channel in the near future. The draw cycle is incredible and it is dead and dead quiet when set up with a rest, sights and stabilizer.

yes. honestly you only want this model if your 31" and above. They have some more interesting news models out yet again. I do love my XL tho.

Damnn, was really hoping this was faster with the performance setting cuz it still looked really smooth. Im no means a speed freak when it comes to my setup but my RX-1 now at 75 pounds and 29.5” draw is slinging my VAP SS pretty decent. Really need and want a new longer ATA and brace height bow tho. And better draw cycle. My Rx-1 is pretty damn harsh and out dated now

I don't know but for me those "limb tips" with those glued(?) and 2x riveted dead lock cam system parts don't appear to be a long lasting solution, built.

Can I talk you into building me a revolt x SS?

Still can't rid of my realmX. Basically the same bow with no deadlock and much faster especially at shorter dl than this one and the revoltX

Okay I’m not the average guy around 32” draw length, my question is bow tech cam adjustment is that same or similar to elite set technology?

@silentassassin1108

2 жыл бұрын

Similar but not quite the same, elite adjusts the limb pocket and the bowtech actually slides the cam side to side like if you would use shims or top hats.

Ouch. I know it's smooth drawing and everything, but it's not really competing with other bows on the market at those speeds. You would need a pretty long draw length to justify this one

As well all know, Manufacturers always bloat this specification. Why I have no idea. I wish they would give real world, correct speed reports, but its not a perfect world. Also, once you strap in a hunting arrow setup, all speeds drop under 300fps anyways. Almost always. Unless of course we are shooting straws😂

@@aldoraine9259 I would agree? They all do fib but for example the Mathews was 350 IBO and was under at 332FPS, Hoyt 340 IBO and hit 326 IBO but Bowtech was 350 IBO and was hitting 311-322 IBO on a 350 IBO which is not even in the ball park. This was way more than the usual bow company fudge.

Bummer for bowtech this year… lots of puppy dog eyes.

NEVER TRUST A D-LOOP !

Sounds kinda loud , something loose

Just watching the hot chick dancing between shots. thanks for the videos.

Hate to say it but bowtech this year bows speed sucks.
