Still the only company that I have ever bought a bow from sight unseen and they were flat out shooters. The lifetime transferable warranty can not be beat either.

I've had a couple of Athens, both were wonderful. Miss my Vista 35, should have never let it go. Would love a new one but the price is a little high (especially here in Australia). Great video!!

I Love fusion finishes on a bow!! I hope prime developed this cam technology with rotating mods and adjustable let off. I believe Athens with the cross cables add stability and balance to the bow. I hope Athens don't have any clearance problems on their cams and cables of this design

Love the review as always. And I completely agree with you about hunting and where to aim! Too many guys on here can't understand that concept!!! It's nice finally hearing someone with common sense that knows they're stuff. But anyways, Athens is insanely underrated! Ive owned the Ridge 34 and Vista 33. Their draw cycles are smooth and just comfortable shooting bows. But yeah, Thank you for another awesome video brother!

I just bought an Athens Axxis 31 on closeout for $875 with tax delivered to my door. I don't have alot of arrows thru it yet but the draw is stiff but consistent all the way thru. I think these will be collector items, I'm leaving the tag on and hanging it in my office.

@tsi-rocket41449 ай бұрын
I agree I'd like to see a 350grain arrow shot. Rip xv is capable but I think he'd have to build it with a 350 spine or find a lighter nock/fletching for a 300 spine.

Love the videos, will you test the bows at shorter draw, like 27 or 27.5 or 28 with a 3d arrow 350 gr and hunting arrow 450 gr and ranch fairy arrow 550 gr or more. Some cams just perform better and feel better at short draw cycles
@l.i.archer53799 ай бұрын
If you kept that bow and called Athens to tell them you'll be making installments, I'm pretty sure they would do that. So, why bother wasting money shipping that bow back to them when you're going to get one anyway? I love Athens bows and really wanted their Vista 31 last year, but it was way out of my budget, so I opted to get a Bear Whitetail Maxx before Christmas. Then, Christmas came around and I got a handsome bonus. Decisions, decisions. I love the Whitetail Maxx so much, and the price was so right, I went and ordered the Alaskan XT. I tell ya, for the price of 1 Athens bow, I was able to get 2 Bear bows. Hell, I got my Whitetail Maxx set up with Trophy Ridge's Hotwire 3-pin sight, Sync rest, Stabilizer kit, and wrist sling for under $1000 total. Who knows, there may be room for an Athens in my future. Time will tell.
