Elite Omnia Long-Term Review

Elite Archery has a reputation for producing bows with great draw cycles, but have not necessarily bows that are out for big time speed. The new Omnia changes all that.
That is a big speed number and one of the big reasons for it is the new SP cam system. This cam was designed to offer great speed and it is paired with the V2 micro adjust system that allows you to make micro adjustments to draw length, let off, and valley. This is a gear-driven adjustment and if you leave a little tension on the set screw, it allows for very fine and precise changes. The bow comes from the factory with 70-90% let off and performance mods on the cams.
Also new is a standard stuffy front stabilizer with some built-in vibration damping.
As for the actual review, let's start with draw cycle and there are definitely some things to talk about on that front. Simply put, speed isn’t free and the draw cycle is where you have to pay for it. The trouble mostly comes in the last part of the draw as the cams roll into the valley.
Speaking of the valley, I can say with confidence that there is a massive difference in valley as you play with the let off. At the more aggressive 70% let off, the valley is too short for me to comfortably handle. However, at 85 or 90% let off, things feel a lot better. I can relax a bit at full draw and properly execute my shot.
I think I shot the Elite Envision I tested last year a little better overall, but some of that comes down to strength. As I’m sure you can tell, my 6-foot-2, 170-pound frame is not exactly ideal for a 70-pound speed bow. I can get a bit tired shooting speed-focused bows. I normally like to put in 150-200 arrow sessions and that can prove a bit challenging for me with the Omnia.
When it comes to speed, the Omnia absolutely shines. With the bow set to 30 ¼” of draw length, 70% let off, and 70 pounds of draw weight, I shot a 350-grain Gold Tip Platinum Pierce arrow an average of 339 feet per second. With my 499-grain Victory RIP SS hunting arrow. I saw speeds of 289 feet per second. That is blazing fast and fairly close to hitting its advertised speed.
If you are in the market for a bow with outstanding speed that is easy to tune, do yourself a favor and check out the Elite Omnia at your local dealer.

The Omnia has both Cable and a Limb Stop option.

The comfort mods make it a completely different feeling bow. And you only lose 5fps..

[@eagleeye2952]

Why does everyone point there bow upwards when starting their draw? If you release your arrow while drawing for whatever reason it wont be aiming at the target lol

[@Angel.Custodio]

Assuming this bow at 60# shoots the same speed as a SS34 at 70#, which draw cycle would feel better at these weights?

[@ArcheryTalkVideo]

Hard to say. A 10-pound difference is notable for sure. I'd have to test them side-by-side.

@@ArcheryTalkVideo I’d watched it 😂

@@Angel.Custodio a smooth 80 is better than a harsh 70. Ss34 ftw

Have you noticed any cable rubbing issues after the first batch, i want to order one asap but hoping elite corrected the issue Thanks 👌

[@ArcheryTalkVideo]

Not at all. I've put a lot of arrows through that bow and have had zero issues with cable rubbing.
