I Shot Every Flagship Bow BLINDFOLDED!!! (Surprising Results)

[@wrsayraw8472]

Yes, please!!! 2 videos! One of the funnest vids in a while. MFJJ + BD = awesome entertainment

[@BowDisciples]

More coming 👌

[@bulletsandbroadheads]

Awsome video. I was a mathews guy for years, my local archery shop put a blindfold on me a couple years ago, gave me a solution ss, and now i have 2 bowtechs.

[@BowDisciples]

Let's go!

[@mayhem035]

Do you know how privileged you are shooting 9 different bow! And you nailed it! Props to James! The fact that you have got it perfectly is that you have had a chance to shoot all of these before! That was nice! Thanks to mfjj and podium archery for that collab! Hope we had that type of archery store, knowledge, and shooting range here in quebec Canada. You are really lucky! 🎯🤟✌️👍👊👌♥️🇨🇦

[@BowDisciples]

Thanks brotha!

[@marcoengelbracht4141]

That was so much fun to watch, you in a coop with Podium Archer! Love it, thank you! Do that more often, please. We do not have nearly no stuff like that here over the pond. 🤘

[@BowDisciples]

Will do 🏹

[@tylerweeding5610]

This is entertaining as heck. Love that Josh had to hear someone liked the Hoyt more than the Mathew’s 😂😂😂

[@BowDisciples]

Thanks man, it was fun

[@theone9328]

For sure. You know that hurt the inner Mathews fanboy in him lol

[@BowDisciples]

😂😂

[@ALEKSfulcrum]

There's no better way to think of a blind test than a blind test) Less marketing, more objectivity. COOL!

[@BowDisciples]

Thanks!

[@andresmith1037]

Videos like this are cool, it would be nice to have a final review of all bows tested for the year! Keep up the great work! 👍

[@BowDisciples]

Thanks!

[@keithrohrbaugh2503]

Very cool video! Awesome to see you and Josh working together and putting out great content. Keep it going for the support of archery! Thank you.

Ahhh Fuk .. Me too !

[@mayhem035]

Yeah, Justin from bow discipline ! 🤣🤣🤣 that one is still making me laugh! Best funny moment of tac to date this year! 🎯🤣🤣🤣✌️👍👌

Classic lol

[@barnypt1]

Finakky! U guys are doing it!! I still say this is the best most u biased way to have someone pick a bow! I have done it many times!!

[@BowDisciples]

Yup! Loved it

[@Syvirus]

lol good job, I wouldnt get any right haha. Cant wait to see the follow up video of this!

[@BowDisciples]

For sure 🏹

[@kevinclark8782]

Every time you tipped your head back you could see.

[@BowDisciples]

That is incorrect

[@michaelwoolacott1232]

I was about to say why did you tip your head back the exact same every time🤣🤔, I reakon you could see out the bottom of it for sure🤣🙏

[@BowDisciples]

I could not

[@ronaldirvineII]

You know how the internet is. Keyboard warriors going to say you could see no matter what😂 anyways did you watch thunder valley race yesterday ​@BowDisciples

[@BowDisciples]

Just highlights unfortunately. Good race?

[@brianbaures6409]

Great vid. Will be very interesting to see the gloved comparison and see if your thoughts change. Thanks!

[@BowDisciples]

Yup! It was wild

[@presmak25]

MFJJ, got a Darton riser width question. Running a Hamskea Trinity, and adjustment is maxed out left, and centershot is still right (by a hair). Does you bar adapter compesate for this? Is it thinner? Ive been trying to design one myself, but machine shops in my area are not coming through. I can and have tuned multiple biws out this way, but i like to stay a centershot

[@UnBound-Archery]

Really enjoyed this one! I think the glove hand would be a great idea. It would be cool to have both of you guys do this & guess the bow/score.

[@BowDisciples]

Stay tuned 👌

[@simoncooper6939]

Great job James, such an intrrssting idea for a video. I love the crossover with mfjj and podium archery, i would love to see more of those. Nice way of rating the shot and feel of each bow, keep it up guys!

[@BowDisciples]

Thank you!

[@Worm-fq7im]

When you pick up a naked Mathews lift your like “wtf how is this bow so light?” it’s indistinguishable. Especially the 33, is light and top heavy

[@BowDisciples]

Roger that

[@RYANROESBERY]

It's awesome of Mathew's to take care of their customers the way they are. You have to love a company that stands behind their products the way Mathew's dose, there isn't many companies that do that anymore. Someday I might be able to afford one lol

[@BowDisciples]

Absolutely!

[@scottgulden7035]

I liked that he was trying to give his thoughts on each bowl instead of cutting him off lol. Have him do it without the blindfold and give his commentary on each bow.

[@BowDisciples]

Done deal

[@TD3_Archery]

90% let off on the elite and you say it’s jumpy? 😂 you almost have to force the bow forward to get it to go down with that much let off.

[@BowDisciples]

Yeah im trash

[@TD3_Archery]

@@BowDisciples that’s not what I said lol. 😂

[@BowDisciples]

😂 I know im playing brotha

[@kenwest1793]

Really interesting video idea! I thought for sure we were gonna see a 2g frig with a peep hole when MFJJ just walked away....

[@BowDisciples]

😂

[@scottgulden7035]

Really liked this video, refine it and make it harder to feel grip like you said and provide feedback.

[@BowDisciples]

Stay tuned 👌

[@ColeWilliams-x1g]

Yeah I tested this with a similar hat he keeps tipping his head back and you can easily see when you do that the nose creates a gap under the hat that gives a perfect view if you look at an angle you can see everything and even if he didn't tip his head he could still see the bottom end of the bow and that would be enough to tell

[@BowDisciples]

False

[@Wallyofthewild]

Ohhh the hate on the “ tip back your head and looked” 😂 maybe he actually knows? Heaven forbid a guy knows his stuff

[@BowDisciples]

Hahaha all good

[@shelbyraines234]

Excellent content its great seeing everybody making friends it's really cool God bless and see you.on the next one

[@BowDisciples]

Thank you 🏹

[@jefferylorsung8846]

I shot the hoyt rx7 back to back with the carbon one probably 50 times trying to decide. Then I realized the hoyt already has a stabalizer and the orbits weren't in the one. I left the shop with the carbon 1. They are both elite bows but I wasn't a fan of the spongy back wall and the hump being mid draw on the hoyt. Both the rx and the twin. Honestly for the price the cp30 was probably the best bang for your buck for western hunting. Both are solid bows tho it just comes down to what makes you feel the most comfortable. Agree on the bear draw cycle. I had a eko for a couple years and it was hard as hell to tune the hamd shock out of it. Drawing 70 felt like 90 and the lurch was terrible.

[@BowDisciples]

Yessir!

[@blake3046]

Im a mathews guy, absolutely love my lift. But bowtech has been close to get me to switch! Probably the only other bow id consider

[@BowDisciples]

Roger that!

[@jons7e]

It's funny how distinct the grips are from bow to bow. Even wearing a glove, I'm not sure if you wouldn't feel it. Maybe if you shot them all off the bare riser? Core SR in performance vs a Hoyt Ultra... that Ultra has a WAY better feeling draw imo

[@BowDisciples]

Dude for sure

[@gordonneverdies]

This would be interesting with someone who's never shot the newer bows. Glove is definitely a good idea.

[@BowDisciples]

Agreed 👍

[@justinlloyd9342]

I’d have to agree with u on the draw cycle on the bear in my opinion the cycle is terrible but as far as it not having any let off that doesn’t make sense cause cause once u get it back it almost holds its self

[@BowDisciples]

Roger

[@jimmiekaelin4804]

Special request for MFJJ. Explain why the PSE Mach 30 is so accurate at distance. Enquirery minds want to know. There is KZbin video of a guy shooting an apple at 145 yards, twice in a row!

[@BowDisciples]

Wow!

[@griffin2599]

Why does the draw cycle not really improve with Bear? They have been in the flagship market for about five years now, and I'm sure a company like Bear has an entire team of engineers who could greatly improve the draw cycle. I shoot an Elite Carbon Era, but I'm rooting for Bear flagships for some reason. lol!

[@jeffspencer7489]

Looking forward to next step

[@douglasscholl4681]

Interesting that the grips made that big of a difference in "feel".

Not really, the grip is the only part of the bow you touch when shooting. It makes a huge difference.

[@teddibiase5332]

Why the Kairos and not the Ethos??

[@BowDisciples]

It's what they chose for me

[@patrickbink4617]

I wish this blind test was done by someone who was NOT so familiar with each bow so that brand bias (by grip feel ) wasn't a factor. But still, this was good. The follow-up test should be interesting. I have only tried a few different bows but recently tried a friend's Bear and hated the grip. How would the ranking differ if it was Brianna or some other woman doing the shooting?

[@BowDisciples]

Good question
