I finally found a left handed 33 in stock and was able to shoot it a bit. I decided to pick it up, spend some time with it, and wanted to report out my real world findings. To be honest, I was very skeptical about this bow when I first saw the release of it. When I first inspected one in person, my skepticism grew. You can literally grab the cam and bend it around in all directions (of course with the bow at brace) as the limbs are so skinny they just flex like crazy. I was worried about that from a durability standpoint. I was also worried about the cams being very, very skeletonized. They seem like they would be easy to bend, etc. Those were some initial observations before I got to shoot one. I got to shoot one and my first reaction was 1) the draw cycle is very linear, just stiff 2) there is no valley (even at 85%) 3) the vibe/shock after the shot is more than the Phase 4 and 4) the riser length adds to stability significantly 5) something different in the grip where your thumb fits is improved. I shot it with both C and D draw length mods and landed on taking it home with the C mod. I bought the bow and took it home (we do our own set up and tuning at home)...... Set up was easy. With a center shot rest we had a perfect bullet hole with ZERO top hat changes or any other changes. The Match strings are an improvement over the Zebra, not sure how much of an improvement but they are better. They are thinner and they did settle very quickly and my peep locked in. So I just started shooting it for a few days. The bow has a very clean shot cycle, very clean release. With it all set up, the vibe/shock was mostly gone. I got used to the draw cycle being stiff. I never did like the lack of a valley. My style of shooting my hinge is to relax/elongate the palm of my hand and that style does not work well with a bow with no valley. As I shot it, I realized the C mod was making me feel a bit long. I was not stable at full draw and could feel being a bit overextended. My shop still had the D mods, so I switched to them and now I was too short, feeling scrunched up. When I am scrunched up, I have hand torque. For me, having the draw length perfect is a huge issue, as I finally found out how well I shoot when my draw length is spot on. It matters hugely! So, sadly, I am caught between a D and C on this new Mathews cam and not comfortable at either. Note on the previous Mathews cam the D mod worked well for me). Yes, could I twist strings and/or remove the grip and/or fiddle with D loop length or even my release neck length (different releases) - yes I could do all of that to try and get the Lift 33 to fit my draw length. Since I have other bows I shoot well, I did not want to put that level of effort into the Lift, so I sold it/traded it. As long as Mathews runs this newest cam with the 1/2" draw length limits, I am probably out of luck with Mathews. Conclusion, while I can't speak to the long term durability of the bow/cams, if your draw length fits one of the draw mods and if you are OK with no valley, this bow could be a great choice for you. Thank you.

Looks like a sick bow. If my current bow was older I'd think about upgrading.

[@tylersmith2827]

Love the videos. What are your thoughts on the limbs cracking with the lifts ? I’m seeing posts daily with this. Limited to a small portion or bigger issue?

[@papaschuette]

Yep. I need a Mathews bow in my life.

[@jons7e]

aluminum bow, carbon weight 🤯 they will sell a ton of them

[@Angel.Custodio]

How would you compare the draw cycle with the Bowtech core SR? I feel the speeds are comparable.

[@whitewood2000]

What are your thoughts on the rubber between the limbs? Do you foresee any problems with longevity?

[@averagejackarchery]

We have seen zero issues on them with all the Phase 4's we have shot. Thousands of combined arrows and no sign of wear or premature breaking down.

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

That's where lifetime warranty, and best customer service comes in too.

[@Kammeg71]

Nate, do you still carry Elite bows in the shop? Just wondering if we could expect a Ethos/Kairos review from you in the future?

[@averagejackarchery]

Yes! We are still an Elite dealer for Central PA. I will probably have a Kairos review in the future.

[@dan2496]

There is a bluetooth hand grip also that is new from mathews.. Whats the price out the door for the bow..

[@averagejackarchery]

As I state in the video, the dealer price will be $1229 for the L29.5, and $1329 for the L33.

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

He talked about the grip at 3 minutes. Do you have the attention span of a nat?

[@Cooldibs]

Would you recommend the 33 for someone with a 28” draw length?

[@averagejackarchery]

Absolutely! No reason to not shoot it at any of its draw length capabilities.

[@dirtjunkie2749]

Do you have a lift 33 in earth or granite for sale yet?

[@averagejackarchery]

No, not for sale. These are our preview packages. We are taking pre orders currently

[@Bowsonthebrain]

Dude you didn’t even mention the fact that it’s lighter then some carbon bows ! 3.99 lbs

[@mussersbowsboatsandscience6610]

And?

[@Getdownorlaydownbum]

@@mussersbowsboatsandscience6610and some people would love to know that HUGE factor.

[@joelparks3862]

Can you make a video like this with the bear persist and Hoyt alpha x?

[@averagejackarchery]

Bear, possibly once we get one in. We don't carry Hoyts

[@timbow50]

👍👍👀

[@walteroquinn757]

Wait until next year and they will have one better

[@SilvermikeTT]

Mods? What is this 2019?

[@torreyintahoe]

Bro, do you even mod?

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

😂 do you even Lift?

[@michaelcolthart4006]

Outside of a dedicated draw length cam, mods are the most efficient and stable way of doing it.

[@nockreel1190]

My mathews switchback xt still shoots better.

[@joshfeister6566]

No it don’t lol 😂

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

Yea, sure it doesn't. 😂

[@QuiseSama]

Ignore the corporate boot licking fanboys. You shit on “daddy” Mathews’ new wallet pegging toy they get angry lmao. They tend to forget it’s not the bow it’s the archer. Keep on keeping brother.

[@grindano]

I believe you man! Some bows are just shooters! My Halon 32 was the best shooter I’ve ever had! I got an absolute steal of a deal on a VXR and it just doesn’t shoot the same!

[@michaelcolthart4006]

The Switchbacks are awesome…..but no, sorry, yours does not shoot better than the new bows.

[@voxpopuli905]

Yep…I knew Jack would eventually come to the dark side bwahahaha 😈

[@averagejackarchery]

I did phase 4 reviews last year too. I don't shoot Mathews. I sell them in my store.

[@voxpopuli905]

@@averagejackarchery I hear what you’re saying, but I think you’re secretly scmoozing with a Mathews when nobody’s lookin lol
