You guys pick Thursdays Video.. Would you rather a WA Whitetail hunt? Or more archery things? - TC ... also how about that long range footage 😍😍

[@dannyb7847]

Both!! We want both!! Lol. Let’s see the hunt first. That is my vote.

[@mav22100]

Both please....keep it coming boys!!!

[@jackbuendgen389]

Hunt

[@justinlong3621]

White tail hunt and then more tinkering!

[@hunterguy123]

Both 😁 just enjoy your content no matter what it is

[@WildTines]

“Do you suck?” I felt that. Haha 😅

[@fletchaddicts3367]

I’ve never really been a Mathews guy, but I was actually impressed with the V3! Plus that intro was hilarious

[@IronSharpensIron127]

Yeppp!! On my way to pick up my newly strung bow this morning but I got time for Elkshape and coffee!

[@ElkShape]

Word!

[@dannyb7847]

I just got my first bow in Jan. I’m already dreaming of upgrading!!

[@tree_monkey3120xp]

Great video Dan I'm with ya the longer yardage I can practice at. The better it helps me at closer range just like you describe! Keep up the great work! ✋

[@johnmarksberry5893]

Heck yea! Got to love those 100 yard bombs. Great video guys.

[@rasheelliott2723]

Always love the content! Can you guys do a video with JJ on some tips and tricks of how to get the most yardage out of your sight tape? Getting 120 yards out of your setup before your sight hits the arrow would be legit!

[@RobertWilliams82-22]

Dan with the “cowboy cut Stranglers”!!!

[@ElkShape]

lol word!!

[@RobertWilliams82-22]

@@ElkShape ain’t not pants tougher!!!

[@jimr7154]

Long range shooting 😁👍 but love it all I’d love to be able to shoot a brand new 31 fully set up like my TRIAX for comparison

[@elkdeerfish]

Just watched your IG story. Always going to be haters but their are more lovers than haters...remember that. Keep rocking Dan🙌 Love what your doing🔥

[@PoeOutdoors]

With a 30.5" draw length I went with the 31 but did shoot the 27, that bow shoots and holds much "bigger". Mathews has a great thing going with the longer riser. Completely agree on distance practice, we do it to expose technical flaws to be better at normal whitetail hunting distances of

[@robertminckler804]

They are both great shooting bows it just comes down to string angle preference and the ata preference.

[@rexlove8987]

ABSOLUTELY love my V3 27.

[@brycehiigel235]

I just traded my Triax for the V3 31. Had them put the Hamskea Trinity on that now along with my Creed. Also had the put on the Hamskea Raptor peep on them as well. Really liking it to. Right now with my arrow setup at 20yds is spot on. Had shoulder surgery so haven’t been able to shoot any further yet. Hopefully soon. Fits like a glove

[@RealMJSr]

Just bought my fist bow today, the V3 31. I shot both and loved the size of the 27 but felt more confident with the 31. I’m in GA.

[@RichSias]

That Marsupial pouch is DOPE!

[@mav22100]

Tim's one-liners tho...freaking laser beam dude😁👍

[@ElkShape]

Lol, yup!

[@jayonez137]

I’m a whitetail hunter. My shots are 40 and in. I Practice on foam out to 100 in my yard all the time. Makes those 40 yd shots so much easier and with confidence. I say practice double the distance you plan on hunting

[@georgehammock3740]

I've recently picked up the V3 31 for my first brand new bow... 30.5" draw at 76.5lbs with the "A" modules and 85% letoff. I've been shooting a lot of arrows at 110yds with an average arrow spread of 14", I just can not keep steady. Great bow! Hope to see and meet you at T.A.C. San Antonio!!!

[@HuntsT]

What stabilizers are you running?

[@woodyousley2712]

Just logged on!! I know my pick already 🏹🎯27💪🏾

[@ElkShape]

There's no bad picks!

[@benfisher8863]

Love the long range shots! I picked up the 31 and love it but that 27 looks so wicked for the ground blind. Might have to pick me up one of those too 😏. Really curious about that Marsupial harness too. Wanting to get a bino harness this year but can’t decide which one I like most with Dan wearing different ones in every video 😂

[@tfrost33elkhunter]

Awesome content as usual!!! My brother picked up the 27... it is one heck of a bow. But I may be going with the 31”. We will see?

[@JackLav]

You're in Idaho? Just got the 31 today and it will be ready for me to pick up Monday. Oh man I cant wait!! Great videos, they have been very helpful in my decision on the new bow. Cheers!

[@Favorites2499]

I was going to mention but you found out. The slow motion at 8:20 you can see the arrow tip kick out mid flight. Crazy what a minor thing can do to your arrows.

[@drakekoster2538]

was really hoping for a unique perspective on these two bows, but its the same as every other video i have watched about them

[@bmills231]

You're only going to find out so much through a video. Everyone has different preferences. The only truly unique perspective you can find is your own. Go shoot them in person.

[@bromma1979]

Thanks for all the content🤙🏻

[@johngardneriv3738]

I hadpretty much my dream bow built today. It is a v3 27, I'm from Iowa and do blind and stand hunting.

[@ElkShape]

hope you love it!

[@tommyeastham7684]

I enjoy ur channel. Thank you!

[@cpreit8862]

I jist bought the 27 its my first bow. but I'm in western montana thick woods. I just figured 27 because I'm 28 inch draw length so figured I'd get more out of the bow

[@themcbowhunter]

Love that long range shots😍great video as always🤘🏻 With what camera are you filming your long range shots in slow motion?

[@lyfhntr6562]

This really told/showed me nothing other than a guy shooting in the wind. Looking forward to something more in depth. Thanks.

[@mmcguire5687]

I prefer the string angle and stability of the longer bows and shoot both a 31 VXR and a 34 RX3. Being concerned about a few extra ounces of weight or 2 inches less clearance in a blind is overthinking the scenario in my opinion. Paralysis by analysis.

[@JG-cc4ql]

Took me a while but these videos are great!

[@justinlong3621]

I’ve got a question for ya, I shoot 70 lbs and a 300 spine, do you shoot a 340 for arrow weight and FOC or a different reason?

[@ElkShape]

Dan shoots a shorter arrow, so it's stiffer.. But also helps him get to his desired weight - TC

[@justinlong3621]

@@ElkShape that makes sense. If he cuts it short it actually gets more spine to it. Great video guys!

[@LuisGonzalez-gl4wc]

Where can get that Bigfoot 3D target? It’s nice.

[@Dynamice1337]

Is there a significant advantage in replacing the strings from the stock strings?

[@dirtdiggler4579]

Got the V3 27 this year for elk hunting...if i enjoy carrying more than the 31...it's no contest...

[@rcj9373]

Haha, “Are you torquing, Do you suck?”

[@kipmcbride2681]

I live in midwest hunt whitetail and foam in off-season so what would you choose? 31 or 27

[@user-li8cm5ui2s]

Which Pnuma jacket are you wearing?

[@redbeard_outdoors]

Awesome content as always

[@therealbeardedhunter7224]

What on earth is behind you at 12:55? Hahahaha

[@woodyousley2712]

Finally someone said it!!! You bow hunt to get close!!! Say it again for the ones in the back🗣

[@ElkShape]

Get close, for sure!

[@kingjackson25]

What made you kick the side bar out so much on the 31 vs the 27?

[@joshgunneson1172]

I wanna know too

[@2amendment1960]

Can you dope 1 bow , perfectly, at a time? Will be great to see the details and results.

[@SeuVagem5.56]

Nice video guys!

[@jonathanharrell1502]

What strings are on the 27? And color?

[@mattgriffith5044]

I shoot 27inch draw length as well. What is the measurement of your arrows?

[@outdoorwarvetitsavedmylife7094]

I have the 6 arrow web on my vxr28.5 and i run a 31 inch arrow with a 30 inch draw and i have very little vibration. My question though is it worth it putting a back side stabilizer

[@cervuscanadensis5634]

I shot both cranked to full lbs, the 27 is HARSH!

[@LoveMountainAdventures]

Hey Dan, what is your arrow length and are they the same for each rig?

[@paulconroy2690]

Love the videos

[@john_bear]

How are you able to get out to 120 yards without your sliding sight hitting your arrow shaft? My bow shoots a 500 gr. arrow at 270 fps and 90 yards my fletching hits my sight.

[@flugit]

I need the 27 bad. Someday I'll afford one haha.

[@ElkShape]

Fiscal fitness first 🤟

Need some input on sight pins for my V3, how many pins is the right choice for all around hunting?

[@tyhansen6016]

Single pin mover

[@mattborener835]

I shot both before deciding and ultimately decided on the 31” I’m happy with my decision. This will be my bow for quite some time likely. I need to fly out to MFJJ’s shop and have him help me super tune it though lol

umm sorry to hear about you digestive problems. I hope the quiver and arrows were not attached!!

Question longer draw is better on longer bow .?

[@bmills231]

Yes

[@mattgriffith5044]

Is that the waypoint jacket?

[@anthonyf6525]

I've heard and read many times that the 27 is great for treestands and ground blinds and the 31 is better for open country. Why? I didn't see any clear winner at distance shots, some were better with the 27 some better with the 31. Why the automatic same decision from everyone with no real reasoning, especially with equal accuracy? Or is that what everyone is supposed to say?

[@matthewkyle2534]

Lol I have them both and shooting them both doesn’t help. I love certain things about both. The 27 seems like it’s more dead and quieter to me. I love them both. I’m taking them both lol.
