Yah but every one would prefer to have the b.lock over traditional stabs .. so a higher price is business but so high it doesn't make sense to buy it is.. legal extortion? Forever love Mathews but even if I won the lottery and bought 2 fully decked out lifts.. I would have to consider excluding the b.lock stabs..

Viper makes compatible stabilizers for the BL system for 70-90 bucks so you have the option at a more palatable price point. Still rather have the Mathews bars but that’s more for concentricity than function

Who's Tim Conner? Is he a relative of John Conner? I agree with u on the draw length. The Prime Centergy & Nexus 4 I'm sending to Prime feel great @ 30". But the only Prime I'm keeping which is the CT-5 which has a stabilizer on the front & the one I run on the bottom through a gripper that goes into the riser is the only one with new strings & cables. It's also feels more like 30 1/4" but I can get used to that with it's hold & draw cycle. It just feels better when I pull through the shot. I'm actually sending the other 2 back to Prime since they don't have a bow dealer anywhere close to me & I'm mostly shooting only recurves now & I ❤ it. Much smoother & natural. I don't miss all that extra weight either since all my hunting exists on the fringes that I have to travel along way back to. Glad I'm using the arborist tricks of the trade or I wouldn't get any encounters like many that are frustrated here in MN. We had over 50" of snow this time of year just 12 months ago.

I lose forgiveness if I do that though. I’ve tried and my groups get worse.
@michaelcolthart400610 ай бұрын
Mathews seem to draw 1/2 inch long. Try the 29.5 with a DLoop 1/4 inch longer than your normal DLoop.

Not a terrible option
@michaelcolthart400610 ай бұрын
We do that fairly often at the shop. This year with the lift we’ve found some pull true to length and some are still long…..33 seems to pull truer.

I think you’re in shock on how light bow is, and you confuse yourself with that being the best bow Mathews ever made

Mathews bow with a RedWRX hat LOL
@brandonmcdonald612110 ай бұрын
Hehe. I always wonder if people are going to notice things like that. Also purposefully leave the bow slightly out of tune when shooting those long-distance shots to see if people notice. miss spell, certain things.

I’m a Mathew’s guy but the lift is not the best Mathew’s out, the v3x is the best Mathew’s in 2024, who would take the risk of a limb breaking in the stand or in a tournament, Mathew’s v3x is the best bow no doubt

“Longer draw” could you shorten your D Loop? It looks long. Oh and I Sub’d to get ya closer. Lol

Why would I ever buy something different than a Matthews

Oh. No I just convinced myself not to buy the Lift because I still own the the VX329 and just bought the Core SR. See what you have to say. LOL

You’re still new to archery. I shot Mathew’s for years. If you don’t have a smooth cam like they used to have then it sucks. Try a gout. Smoothest draw cycle on the market.

Try a Hoyt.
@brandonmcdonald612110 ай бұрын
No cams are obviously smoother. But when you balance everything together they don’t compete.

Wow finally a video that your not sitting in a chair smoking a cigar drinking some whiskey and thinking your lifestyle is more important then what you are trying to film, who are you anyway?
@l.i.archer537910 ай бұрын
I don't believe having a module system like that maximizes efficiency on the cams. I've got a Bowtech RPM 360 set at 26.5" (but measures 27"), 64#, and shoots a 325 grain arrow at 306 fps for me. I don't shoot that light of an arrow for hunting. My hunting arrows are 390 grains and they still shoot 285 fps from this bow. This bow may be 9 years old, but it's got rotating modules, and is one of the most efficient, smoothest drawing speed bows I have ever shot. It's also just as quiet, if not quieter, than the Lift.

im not buying what mathews and prime are selling with the mods if its so much more efficient then lets see the numbers. and the grip..... change the whole bow but they keep the grip, the worst thing about the mathews????
@brandonmcdonald612110 ай бұрын
I’m with you about the grip. I’m really curious about the mods as well on the Mathews. They are saying going from 85 to 80% let off is going to have a 4 ft./s increase. If that’s the case that’s insane. I’ve never had that happen with any other bow I’ve shot.

The Lift is crap. My V3 31 is a way, WAY, better bow. You should just give me your Lift.

@brandonmcdonald6121 what is your TAW these days? I hope you are either super light and fast or heavy and slow. From an efficiency point of view the worst thing you can do is end up in the middle.
@Constitutionkiller-ye1xw10 ай бұрын
I don't see the point in buying a Lift as I have a V3X 33. In fact, I'm thinking I won't buy another Mathews bow till they change that lousy grip.
@brandonmcdonald612110 ай бұрын
I switched from the v3x. I get it, but it is noticeable. Maybe next year!
