Comparing Let Off On The New HOYT VENTUM 30 | 85% VS 80% | Speed Test, Comparison, and GIVEAWAY!!!!

[@mspahn1967]

Been nice if the camera was focused on what you were doing and moving.

[@michaelpoplawski3246]

I've heard that most of the current cam systems that allow let-off adjustment add draw length as one increases the let-off. If you can get one of your buds to assist, I'd be very interested to see you do a follow-up on this video where you adjust the let-off to 80 %, pull into the back wall and have your friend put a pencil mark on the arrow shaft where it sits on the rest; then adjust the let-off to 85 % and repeat the process. If you're picking up a quarter or half-inch in draw length as you increase the let-off, that might explain why you're not seeing a change in speed. I did notice that you said the valley felt a little shorter at 80% let-off. Good video, I subscribed today.

[@bmills231]

It won't be anywhere near 1/4-1/2" but it's possible it could increase 1/32, maybe 1/16. Either way my VXR is also faster with 85% mods than with 80%.

[@hamedizzy5137]

It’s true

[@hamedizzy5137]

@@bmills231that makes no sense. Should be faster with lower let off.

[@joshuabates4759]

I have no hands on testing or proof of this, but my logic on the difference: The way the let-off is changed is by moving the cam stop only. This means, to achieve the 80%, it stops the cam rollover at that point, with a short valley. For 85%, it would be moved to a position where the cam rollover would go just a touch further, allowing more let-off. This would mean it would have that longer valley, as well as a touch longer draw length. Which, also means, that the cam has a little longer cycle, therefore, the higher let-off on this cam, changed by moving the stop, should always have higher speed with everything else being equal.

Very good information I have an older Hoyt XT 2000 and watching your videos has helped me between purchasing a Torrex or Torrex xt which I went with the xt thanks to your help I’m really looking forward to seeing more of your videos always helpful looks like I might be getting a ventum 30 in the near future

[@joshuabates4759]

Glad to see someone else headed down the same path I am! I have a 99 magnate redline. Finally upgrading, and will be going with the torrex xt as well!

[@vm859]

The draw length gets a tad shorter when you change the let off on these cams. Anything from the let off gets negated but the dl change.

[@NPC-fl3gq]

I prefer having to hold a little extra weight.. like you said, it helps wrt form. That reason alone is enough for me. My bow is 75%, and i don't have the slightest inkling to increase let-off. My target bow is 70%, and that's fine too - although that bow maxxes out at 55lbs, so i ain't holding much anyway.

[@JBASH2011]

This is common. You are reducing the draw length at the same time you are reducing the letoff. A different module, programmed for 80% letoff, would be needed to see a speed increase at the same exact draw length.

[@bmills231]

Not always. My VXR is faster with 85% mods than 80%. No change in draw length. It still doesn't make sense to me but it is what it is.

[@brucehillbillybarthalow3786]

I'm actually disappointed that there wasn't a speed increase.I changed let off on my hyperforce and picked up 13 fps.268 fps at 85% a nice jump 281 fps at 80% .but this bow is super quiet.

[@kevindonahue7355]

I like the review I'm really liking the reviews you do I shoot a diamond edge 320 wish I could afford a hoyt

[@rwmagnus]

WOW can’t believe how quiet that bow is. Always used a 80% let off.

[@BOOMER-rs5qn]

I would like to see if the results are the same at 28 and 29 inch draw lengths.

[@ericharrelson5170]

I had same results on rx5 leaving mine on 85 I feel that little lighter hold is more forgiving

[@toddlymburner5783]

More holding weight is more forgiving

[@n2trkys18]

Thanks for doing this test. Thank you for your service. Stay safe!

[@blp1698]

Thanks for this video. I have been trying to decide whether it is worth it to get 80% mods. This is the first true comparison that I’ve seen. I would love to know if it’s the same on the Mathews v3.

[@vancejohnson1778]

Awesome stuff! Really like your reviews, new subscriber here 👌

[@MikeyWoomer]

Very interesting.. good job man

[@elibrownoutdoors9780]

Wow man great video

[@juniorimac]

Bummer

[@johncannady6105]

Thanks for doing this.

[@billwhitaker2947]

I've been curious to know if there was any difference.

[@stevengarcia6883]

These are the videos people need to see. This information is never displayed when these new bows are made

[@davissvt]

looked at ventum 33 yesterday but unfortunately the only one the dealer had was scratched up really bad. Can't seem to find anywhere that has one in stock.

[@davissvt]

@@BuffaloCreekOutdoorsOfficial will they ship to iowa?

[@davissvt]

@@BuffaloCreekOutdoorsOfficial yeah. Noone in my area can get them till 16weeks out.

[@wereverywhere2.037]

I need some gear. I been saving for a new bow I need help with the accessories

[@ZenBehindThePeep]

Good info to know

[@stevengarcia6883]

Because of the last video with the comparison of the bows im buying the Ventum 30. This channel is great

[@hamedizzy5137]

Lower let off usually translates to better groups

[@biakdika2546]

I hope someday I'm gonna winner😉 love your vid from India. ...

[@4570face]
