Having had my Lift 33 since January, I've had time to spend behind it and work on it. I have not seen it not make its advertised speed with hunting weight arrows, and the draw lengths on the new mods are much, much, much closer than previous mods. Compared to my V3X33, the Lift is 3 fps faster pulling 2lbs less draw weight and drawing a 1/2" shorter draw length. At 28.5" (about 1/8" long), pulling 74.9lbs, it is shooting a 467 grain arrow at 291fps with 20gr on the string. Put those numbers into the IBO calculator of your choice, and it is hitting its numbers. I find the draw better than the previous cams, and the valley is excellent, not to long or to short, but keeping you in your shot and dynamic. I haven't kept a Mathews bow since the Vertix, and still own other brands and models that are also excellent offerings, but the Lift is easily the best bow of '24 in my opinion after shooting most all of them, and is easily the best bow Mathews has released in many, many years.

The speed has been pretty wicked at every draw length we've set them up on. Glad you're loving it!

I have a VXR 31.5 and a lift 33 and I love the VXR but my LIFT is deadly accurate and shoots 302 at 69 lbs I love it

My LIFT33 has turned out to be somewhat disappointing because I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HOW IT SHOOTS…….. I made the comment earlier about my limbs being replaced 4 times and Mathews (SCHEELS The Colony TX) replaced my bow. Only to have the limbs on that bow splinter also. Those limbs were replaced on Monday and today (Wednesday) my limbs splintered again! Nothing out of the ordinary here; 31.5/72/85….. 29.5”/472 grain Sirius Gemini arrows w/ 50 grain podium titanium half out and 125 grain field point.

I live in southamerica and obviously can not get the mathews shipped to me , when i come into the shop how long would it take for the custom order to be done?

[@juanrodriguez-mu7ko]

So this is easier to draw than the 29.5 I have bad shoulders and I’m a short guy 27 “ draw

[@ronmorris1151]

2 or three years and move on to the next one, hah do you work in a caryard

[@Mgm77mathis]

I’ve had my Lift 33 for about 3 months. I’ve got it set up for 3d tournaments. Honestly it is the most accurate bow I’ve ever shot. It holds incredibly well. I can’t complain at all. Great review!

[@BetterOutdoorsarchery]

Thanks!!! That is what we are being told from our customers that have one too!!

[@weskuhn2521]

Nothing about limb issues

Lol you sound just like the guys off truck tv that use to air on Sundays 😂😂😂 I can't stop laughing.

[@dillonwalling]

It was called TRUCKS… wasn’t it?! I remember! 😆

I watched that all the time growing up! Stacey David is the 🐐

[@toddshumaker2715]

I've had my Lift 33 for about 2-weeks now. I had been shooting the V3X 33. When I shot the Lift, it was much quieter, held better and was faster in the Chrono than the V3X. Wondering what your opinions are between these 2 bows? Thanks! And great overview!

[@James.712]

Get a front and back bar on it and I'd argue it holds as well on target as my TRX 38

[@jamesesouthwick1944]

Thank you for your honest and thorough review.

[@KatManDew931]

Can you do a video on technique you use when shooting with glasses?

[@johnvermette7904]

Another well done review and video, I have really seen a big improvement over the years as you become more confident! Thanks for sharing with all of us.

[@BetterOutdoorsarchery]

We appreciate you following along on the journey!

[@plram3054]

Nice video, I like a lot about Lift except a finish. I have a new lift and a camo finish is flanking off. And my friends experience similar issue

[@BetterOutdoorsarchery]

Interesting! We have not had that issue on any of ours yet. It could be isolated to a bad run. That sounds like a contact Mathews deal.

[@randymiller899]

I bought the grip from Shrewd that is square in the back I tried the bee real grip but was was to fat for my hand but the schrewd grip for the engage was perfect for me for guys and gals out there struggling with the stock grip .

[@BetterOutdoorsarchery]

Those are sweet! I shot the low wrist Shrewd last year and it was great. I want to try the new low wrist one from Total Peep though!

[@davidyoung1427]

Really like the way you do your reviews. Keep up the great reviews!

[@BetterOutdoorsarchery]

Thanks for watching!! We do all we can to make them better every year!

[@jebstuart1323]

I got the Lift a month ago. Had it 1 week and the finish was coming off it. I stripped it down and had it Cerakoted in Kuiu camo pattern. They are definately a shooter but I still prefer my Darton. I really wish I had went with a Hoyt instead.

[@Tullminator]

Sell it

[@jebstuart1323]

@@Getdownorlaydownbum Yeah this wasnt scuffing or scratches so quit acting like a Fanboy.

[@jebstuart1323]

@@Getdownorlaydownbum Do you comprehend anything you read? The finish was coming off before I sent it out and before the riser was stripped so it could be refinished. Why would you think the finish should come off by stripping down a bow?! Does your paint fall off your car if you change a tire?! Go be a Fanboy elsewhere.

[@jebstuart1323]

@@Getdownorlaydownbum My bow was just refinished by a firearms company that Cerakotes. The riser was all they would accept so of course it had to be taken apart, or is there something wrong in you f'n melon that you dont comprehend? I had nothing to do with the finish flaking, it was a shit job to start with.

[@denniskay8178]

The ibo speed test is on 80lbs not 70lbs like it's supposed to my prime RVX 34 is faster and shoots better I will never buy a mathews ever again the last mathews that was any good was the VXR
