2021 PSE XPEDITE NXT compound bow review

[@bornepatrol]

Cheers for the mention. The other reason the Xpedite also suits me is I am a shorter draw archer and the string angle on the Xpedite puts the string on the nose and corner of the mouth every time. Some longer brace height and ATA bows for me didn’t fit. Fit is very important and the secondary benefit of speed is awesome.

[@5jjt]

Hmm, never considered that shorter brace heights are better for shorter draw lengths.

[@theamazinggoldfish8713]

I bought the NXT 31 (primarily because of your review) and have fitted fwd & rear stabilizers to it and added my own fwd legs to the bow using one of the stabilizer holes. Using a Tru glow single power dot for my site. Still saving up for Boss X release but I am loving this bow (my first true compound) as compared to my $80 SAS siege, LOL 😂. Thanks Steven 👍

[@blainclatworthy5423]

I was shooting my Olympic Bow today. When I arrived at the Archery Field it was 11 C, beautiful shooting weather. Shoot well and enjoy life!!

[@Jake-mb5xd]

Currently shopping a new hunting bow, shot the NXT 30 and 35 my shop is out of the 33”, the expedite some of the Athens bows and 2 Bears I couldn’t believe for me the draw cycle and shot for me felt the best out of the xpedite and I had no intentions of buying a speed bow again

[@Buran01]

The Evo NXT 35 seems to have better balance, nicer draw cycle, being more quieter and having a wider array of available dl. This Expedite has the NXT label but doesn't echo the focus from PSE in the last year on providing a more smooth draw cycle with more parallel limbs and long brace heighs. Waiting to the end of the year to buy my second compound (this time oriented towards 3D) and the NXT 35 seems more appealing, to be honest.

[@chickimac1]

Pse should make a Steven Hann model bow. I would buy one😎👍!

[@MickyMouseLimited]

Longer limbs store energy over a bigger curve radius. Reduces the overall bending stress on the limbs. In short the chance for a limb failure is smaller and makes for bigger tolerances during manufacturing. It is a win win for customer and manufacture. I don't know about hand shock. I have only felt hand shock when my cams were out of timing. I guess I am not sensitive enough and I shoot my cheap bear cruzer g2 3 days a week 50 shoots per session.

[@cfugate3425]

I went with a hoyt this time double XXL 33inch draw not many options for me but i shot pse for the last 6 years and loved it .the hoyt is smooth really smooth compared to my 6 years old pse

[@thomasstanworth]

Nice review, thanks! For 3d, unknown distance, speed is nice, but stability and accuracy always wins. Look at what the top pros shoot in any country really and they tend to shoot either a long target bow at 37-40”, or a ‘fast target’ bow, such as the TRX 36, Perform X 3D, Shootdown etc i.e. still a decent brace height and draw cycle. 3D shot in the woods allows for a light large diameter arrow (little wind) and in the open, the 3DHV is very popular due to low weight and fairly narrow diameter. I switched to a TRx40 for 3D in the uK, which is in the woods. I need a 315gn arrow to get to the 300fps limit, but boy does it shoot well because the bow is so stable, smooth and easy to let down if I have not set up comfortably. Even if we’re shooting WA 3d, with no speed limit, I would still shoot a dedicated target bow, but a faster model, because the benefits of a bow that reliably pounds the X always outweighs the miniscule benefit of 10 or 15 FPS more.

[@theamazinggoldfish8713]

I've bought the NXT31 but now wish I had bought the NXT33, but at the time the 31 seemed like an heavy bow. I'm a small (now middle aged) person at 5'3". Also my DL is 26ish so the 33 was a gamble (none in store). After considerable shooting/time, I have added a homemade fwd & rear stabilizers (which added a lot of weight😂). Well as Stephen says, "it's now up to the archer",... shooting a camo bow,.. with target style stabilizers.🤣

[@thomasstanworth]

The Amazing Goldfish once you start hitting gold, all you want to do is hit more. At 5’3” and 26” draw, the 31 probably isn’t bad at all length wise. Well done for making your own stabs - sounds like you’re having a lot of fun!

[@02LM7]

Genius! I never thought of a short brace height in terms of 2 more inches of draw I have to work! 🤔

[@randongrant7694]

I purchased a Xpedite nxt and I can totally feel the difference in vibration and aftershock but dam that arrow was a rocket

[@andybenoit4030]

Nice review. I love my 2018 Xpedite! 70# 28.5 DL shoots my 430 grain TKO 305 FPS. The 5.25” brace height does not bother me in the slightest. I will be trying the new model soon (It’s almost Christmas after all) 😎🏹 🦌

[@chickimac1]

My old omen pro has a 5.5” brace height. You have to be on your A game but is really a very accurate bow

[@MyFriendsAreElectric]

Hey man, I'm revisiting some of these older reviews as I'm thinking of moving from my Supra Focus to a field bow. My problem is more that I'm a 27" draw and feel like only PSE seem to have decent proved bows that also have short cam variants. I like the look of the Elite Encore, but I would be very mid-cam at the draw stop. So I'm a bit torn. I wondered if the new 2022 Omen replaces the Expedite... It's looking pretty good but some people have noted a fairly aggressive hump in the draw to get the speeds. Maybe I'm over thinking it and mid cam doesn't lose anything significant? It's also rare here to see a shop actually stocking many of these bows now with them seemingly prefer to just take special orders on many models.

[@uncleremus5046]

I’m a recurve shooter but great honest review. I could see you tiring shooting that bow in competition with those aggressive cams. As a fellow back tension shooter tho recurve you have great form!

[@paf1474]

I love my tan Nxt 33. Didn't think it would look as good as it does. Maybe a tan Nxt 35 next?

[@Voxguitarsrock]

Nice looking bow Steve. Thanks for the review. I might have 2 pick one up.

[@bigrainbow25]

Steve...Greetings from Idaho Falls Idaho great video... I as well owned a full throttle... having the draw adjust ability on this fast bow is crazy sweet... I bet you have stabilizers on your other bows and I'm sure the wiggle will disappear with a little weight on that bow... I could shoot this bow at 58 lb with my 420 grain hunting arrow (30 in draw) and still be faster than my carbon stealth at 70 lb...I want one

[@yoyogrey5772]

hello, great and informative video! Which Limb dampers do you recommend? I have the standard ones on my PSE NXT. Thanks and regards

[@liamboyle9199]

Would be interesting to shoot one for target and field. I still don't understand why PSE insist on tapping directly into the back of the riser without providing a helicoil insert... Ive began to wear my thread out 😂. Speaking of PSE pricing against other manufacturers. Kinda comes up at my club every now and then. Theres 6 Hoyt Invictas at my club and I cant recommend them to people purely because their price isn't justified when the Supra Focus does the same job, if not better for around 1000 bucks less...

[@jaredwood3594]

When you gonna get your hands on an EVO EVL?

[@mussersbowsboatsandscience6610]

to really get that 360 you need the FL modules with much less let off

[@manualtherapyforum3524]

Ordered the PSE EVO NXT 33 a few weeks ago and am happy to hear your review of this bow. Glad I went with the EVO NXT based on your review here. Thanks!

[@ashleysmith4191]

Correction on the speeds, the 360 is with the low letoff, the HL mods make for a 348-350ibo

[@ccleadge]

356 ata/348ibo

[@GrizzAxxemann]

Been looking really hard at this one to give a bit more speed to my heavy, high FOC hunting arrows. Edit to add: I'm currently shooting a Stinger Extreme

[@rupertmedford3901]

Me too, I'm shooting a 560 grain arrow but it's too slow... I'm considering going to an 80 lb bow. What other bows are you shopping?

[@zacharypayne5213]

got an xpedite on the way cant wait to fit the fl mods on with some 350 gr arrows

I have one as well. Only had it a little over a month but I am really enjoying it and haven't had any issues at all

+1 !

[@wcwcgarner2717]

I shoot the BOWTECH REVOLT . Great bow. Super smooth. Accurate and fast. And dead in the hand. Great flagship bow

[@tripleb2128]

You forgot to adjust the string stop after you dropped the draw weight. Would expect it to shoot quieter and little less vibe on shot once that gets adjusted.

[@flip66five]

The first thing I noticed... good eye... you wouldn't believe the amount of people on FB that complain about poor quality or having the need to "take it to a shop" because of that or brace height out of spec... or "there's a gap between the limbs and riser..." I mean if you're new you're new, but these guys... wooooo...

[@LegitimatelyAxeL]

Can you compare both xpedities

[@stasiekspasiek7250]

Not realy. He was so excited with old X and talking shit about this one , no sens to me ....

[@davidshillito5174]

Hi, would really value your opinion on the new MYBO EDGE compound bow made in England by Merlin archery. Thanks Dave.

[@mikekupetsky6879]

Why is it that technology seems to have be advancing in Leaps and Bounds with crossbows but not with compounds. Currently we are at 500 fps with crossbows without much difference in technology from a few years ago but compound seems to be lagging behind. I don't see where it should be that difficult to make a bow that shoots 350 fps and is Pleasant to shoot

[@keithcushing8162]

How do you get to your second hand bows on your website

[@wbates797]

Which letoff spot is supposed to be the base for your draw length. Like is 90% setting on C spot 29 DL. I’ve never figured out from the factory which letoff setting is supposed to be the right draw length.

[@bluechiparcherychippycarpe2780]

Great review as always Steve 🙂

[@mikeruffo6462]

Did you test the EVO EVL? Is this their new flagship bow?

[@huntingpublicnz]

Looks a lot like the pse omen . I was lucky enough to pick up a omen for $800 with heaps of extras. Still tags on strings. Now to get this pse past the wife

[@andrewhernaman3782]

I just bought an expedite after shooting vaughns bow 😅

[@bigrainbow25]

You could shoot this bow at 55 lb in a 30-inch draw and be faster than most 70 lb bows... that's amazing... plus you could cut an inch off your arrows easy

[@DENMONKEY]

Fyi you got 329 fps from the 2018 xpedite. Trying to track one down if anyone in australia has one to sell 😏

[@petermorphett]

Can you fit a Trophy Taker smack down pro rest now that wont foul with the cables on this years model Steve?

[@michaelrobinson6988]

The bow shaking or twitching on target at full draw has nothing to do with the brace height, that would be the geometry of the bow. The forgiveness when brace height is concerned had to do with how fast the arrow gets off the string when the shot takes place. The larger the brace height, the faster the arrow gets off the string when the bow is shot. That’s why bows with small brace heights are most generally faster, the arrow will stay on the string and have more energy transferred to the arrow on a bow with 5-1/2” brace height than it will with a bow with a 7” brace height. The 7” brace height bow will be more forgiving because you have less time to make human errors once the bow is shot to the time it takes the arrow to get off the string. It may be milliseconds between the two, but a lot can happen in that millisecond. I’d say if the bow is shaking or twitching at full draw, you prob need to add a stabilizer and some weight to it. Love the videos Steven. Keep them coming sir.

[@jaredj631]

I have a pse compound from 1987 should I upgrade yet? :) it shoots at 200 FPS

For the price if it's not aluminum you're getting ripped off. Can't imagine plastic being durable enough.

[@izzyfish5929]

@@justinvzu01 really hoping so lol I'd imagine the extra stress of an extended power stroke/shorter brace height they would do aluminum but think I heard of some evos or evokes having plastic spreaders? Guess we'll find out!

[@justinvzu01]

@@izzyfish5929 I have no fucking clue what any of that means tbh. I'm a new recurve archer, and I'm only getting a compound after a couple months. The club I applied for still hasn't sent me the papers to get into the club, so I'm just sitting here waiting for the email. If I buy a compound I want to get nice accessories with it that I can put on an Invicta or something, which is kinda expensive, and I can't justify spending that money yet. At least I know the Topoint Serenity is the best option for me.

All these new complex bows with all the bells and whistles , when it’s all set up and your shooting hasn’t improved you start blaming the bow ! The bow can’t teach you anything , that’s your problem ! My old Mathews DXT is rugged , simple , quiet , accurate and fast enough to blow an arrow clean through large game ! Test and get something you like , set it up properly and stay with it to improve your shooting skills in target or hunting !
