The Lord allowed me to grab up a lift 33 a few weeks ago. I genuinely have shot my best groups consistently. I hope the prime ronan does well this year. Great price for a lot of bow. Good luck this coming season sir. If won't be too much longer and we will start seeing more reviews like this for the 2025 bows. I'm very happy with my dual purpose 33. I didn't get to do too many 3d tourneys this year, but I am looking forward to hitting more next season.

Having owned a V3X33 and 29, the Lifts are superior in draw and hold in every facet to me. Smoother, better transitions into the valleys, way easier to let down. I hate long valleys that snap your shoulder out of socket if you have to let down. I shot them at 29"/70lb. The 29.5 drew 69.4 and the 33 drew 70.8, and both hit the proper draw lengths for the mods. The 29.5 got 291fps and the 33 292fps with a 440 grain arrow. The 33 has the best draw of all '24 releases in my opinion.

I’ve had a 3D elk for over a decade sitting outside. If you slap on some good house primer like Kilz and then some house paint in elk colors, you not only can preserve the target for almost infinity, it will look so true to life you’ll feel like you’re aiming at a real elk. They make good foam kits if you are getting the core shot out, too. Just something to think about. That bare foam means the investment is going to rapidly loose value if you don’t do something. Just a thought. Nice review!

Mathew’s is known for efficiency, so it’s odd that there was so much variance in the speed testing.

6 fps variance, its how your shooting through that particular chronograph, 100% were going to comment on the chronograph; the weather outside has nothing to do with it. It's the type of chronograph you are using and depending on where you send that arrow inside that window is why your getting drastically different speeds. For instance with the 500g arrow, you dont go 269,269, 275. Your numbers are all over the place bud. If you don't believe me shoot it through the top of the window and then shoot it at the bottom of the window, 3x in a row each.

While using tophats to shift the cams is easier than moving shims around, it still doesn't give you the best tune, consistently, and you'll still have to set the rest in or out a little. Static yokes can and will achieve that, and much more easily, too Second to that, I'll move shims around to get perfect centershot/centerflight.

You're right to be skeptical about the rubber between the limbs. Idk why people are giving you shit about that, it's really no secret that rubber isn't the most durable material and it's only been a design that's been around for 2 years. Give these bows 4-5 years in the field going from warm trucks to 20° treestands, getting wet, getting muddy, humidity, and UV from sunlight. Could really see a problem down the line.

@@BackyardBows Dear Sir, Perhaps I could lend you a helping hand. You don't need a "slow-motion camera." Depending on your video editing software, you can slow down the recorded video through the software settings. For instance, every time I do bow reviews on my channel, I employ this same trick. Additionally, you can configure the recorded video to be slightly "transparent," allowing you to overlay two different bows. With this trick, you can demonstrate how much one bow "swings" or "vibrates" compared to the other bow. As I mentioned, I often use the "slow-motion effect" in my videos to better illustrate my shooting technique or arrow flight. P.S. It's a pity you live so far away; I would love to engage in a 3D archery course challenge with you someday :) Best regards, Supersonic Archery

@BackyardBows my comment is missing a few sentences about mathews marketing and the machine that it is. My point is that a lot guys buy mathews because that's what you do, buy mathews. I'm betting that if a consumer neutral to bowhunting/archery was forced to be blindfolded and pick a bow based on feel, the tech, and actual performance, I don't think as many mathews would be sold.

MFJJ literally called all of the bow manufacturers and ranted about how they all test their bows at 70#, 30" draw, with a 350 grain arrow. They're just using underhanded tactics to get the speed they're advertising.

@@jackbuendgen389 Advertised speeds really are irrelevant tbh, I choose an arrow weight based on hitting 270-285fps. My target arrows come in at 435 grain & my hunting arrows weight 485 grains using the same shafts. I have shot 420 grain arrows but they have some sketchy flights even with quality tuned bows!.

70lb 27.5” draw and it was on the 33” ata. I don’t think you can get extra 8fps speed without a cost on draw cycle. I currently shoot a phase 4 29 and it has a much more comfortable draw cycle imo.

I have a phase 4 29 also. And it is incredibly smooth and quiet. So you dont think the lift is worth upgrading to? Again i love how smooth and easy the phase 4 is to draw.

Cool vlog and nice bow. But like I ask everyone else is how much does Mathews pay to say all of this stuff you said in this vlog. What's wrong with the RX-8 you reviewed earlier and other bows. I think that Mathews pays you all to say that they are the best but there are bows out there that are just as good and even better than Mathews all day!!

The International Bowhunters Organization has created a standard for bows which is produced through a test. The IBO speed is obtained by shooting a bow with the maximum pull weight of 80 pounds +/- 2 pounds. The arrow used will be 400 grains or 5 grains per pound of draw weight. No required draw length

If you test the bow at 70 lb at 30 inch with 350grain arrow. You would see the speed quoted. As that the test set up in the industry. Not realistic to test with much heavier arrows and think it will still get advertised speed

Im not disagreeing with u it might, It got well below calculated speeds from the ibo 348, which once a heavier hunting arrow is in the mix it doesn’t hold up to other bows with the same ibo

No bow on the market will actually match the ibo they’re advertising. There are things that manufacturers will do to get the speed that are completely impractical to the average bow Hunter.

If you're planning on getting a new bowtech be prepared to buy a set of aftermarket strings right away. I had a SS34 this year that had THE WORST factory strings I've ever seen. The serving unraveled in 6 places within 200 arrows.
