MATHEWS LIFT 33 - BEST BOW MADE? - WHY IS IT SO SLOW...? | HAXEN HUNT

[@IZZYR23]

Just got it last week the 29.5, ran it tru the chrono, 408gr= 316, 422gr=303, 454gr=299 with 28DL at 70lbs, that's pretty fast

[@RemedyTalon]

We still haven't seen you verify the draw weight on camera like MFJJ does. My Lift 33 was about 4lbs light from the shop and the ATA was about 1/4" long so I had to add a few twists. I don't know if my shop messed with it before selling it to me.

[@jayfromthe209]

try changing the rest maybe? unsure if it will make a difference to speed. Getting a lift soon

[@trevor5335]

Just got mine Tuesday. It’s unreal I love it. Went with a new rest tho.

[@outdoorsmanofmichigan3858]

Seems odd. Shot a 33 before I bought it with 30” & 70lb draw and a 462gr arrow through a chrono it was 292 my rx-7 was 286. Not sure why your speeds seemed so slow. Great content though.

[@Oleman72]

Most reviews are showing its a little slow? Check out the other reviews out there.

[@outdoorsmanofmichigan3858]

@@Oleman72 I have, slow defining what? It’s not a speed bow but its definitely faster than hoyts flagship

[@Oleman72]

@@outdoorsmanofmichigan3858 I was referring to what you said. It is testing slower then others on every review I have seen. It is also the smoothest you don't get speed and smooth. It's a great bow but not a speed bow.

Get a different chronograph. Change/ increase the sensor lighting

[@HaxenHunt]

It’s accurate with every other bow though

[@ApexArchery]

Something is wrong with your setup. We just did a deep dive review of the LIFT 33 (including draw force curves!) and we built average speeds at exactly 70#, 30" draw (verified) using a calibrated, high-precision chronograph and we got speeds of 330.6 (350 grains), 310.5 (400 grains), 292.6 (450 grains). Somehow your 400 grain arrow was off of our speeds by 16+ fps. Again, we are pretty persistent about checking, double checking and verifying our measurement tools! We shot each arrow weight 8+ times over the chrono to ensure speeds were accurate.

[@slybig1369]

Very interesting, I bought this bow two weeks ago , and honestly, I don’t know how people say there is no vibration I feel quite a bit of vibration

[@saransmith8773]

There's a difference between jumpy then dead in the hand.

[@ericwolbert3256]

I thought the same thing, more vibration than my V3, X and jumps a little bit forward after the shot. This is what hype can do to a mind. I really wanted to love it I really really did, but I can’t ignore the truth.

[@AA-mk4pu]

Your bow is out of time then… mine is completely dead.

[@kenraterink]

Same thing for me. The lift had noticeable more vibration than the Alpha X. Hoyt was also smoother to draw by a slight amount. Both great bows, and both felt better than the bowtech to me

[@RemedyTalon]

Smoother to draw because it's slower, it's as simple as that. @@kenraterink

[@CoachGoodwin23]

I purchased the LIft 29.5 with 80lb mods. WOW! 483g arrow --- its a tac driver! Worth it, with all the changes Mathews made this year! Great vid, love the content!

[@HaxenHunt]

Heck yes!! That’s a dream setup!!

[@kipmcbride2681]

Do another review on that bow with 80 pound mods

[@buckrush8612]

After shooting the lift and bowtechs I like the bowtechs more this year still haven’t shot this years Hoyt tho they were out at my shop

[@davidoneill615]

Curious as to why the speed is so much faster in your MATHEWS LIFT VS PHASE 4 test.

[@HaxenHunt]

That’s the difference of the 29.5 and the 33” axle to axle

[@williamparsons6426]

Are you going to give the hat bow away anytime soon

[@jonathanperillo1795]

I actually thought the same, the limbs weren’t bottomed out. Those speeds seem way off from what I am shooting

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

​@@jwild5360 You're high. Look at 7:00 you can see the face of the limb pocket is tight against the riser.

[@g-man2228]

Not into speed, so it’s a moot point for me…However, I’m a Hoyt guy and the Lift has me intrigued! We’ll see…👊🏻🏹

[@Tullminator]

How does this compare to the Uber?

[@Aaronkey89]

Yea I can’t speak for the other arrow weights but I shoot 450 grains at 30 inches with 70lbs and 85% and I’m getting 292. You getting 284 at 440 grain seems odd to me.

[@Aaronkey89]

@@jwild5360 yea I don’t wanna come off as a fan boy or anything, I’ve mostly shot pse. But the speeds are definitely slow. Compared to mine atleast. And I’ve shot it via the new garmin chrono and the normal one at my shop.

[@bigz5262]

I wonder how much variability there is from bow to bow

[@toddwolfe1978]

Dude you literally released a video 2 weeks ago shooting and comparing the lift 33 vs the alpha x 33 which you determined you like the alpha x 33 better lol

[@HaxenHunt]

I filmed this before I filmed the comparison

[@Shane_Screams]

I have a bear species ev solo cam...desperately waiting to upgrade to a Lift! Lol

[@SandySmith-qd1ku]

Had my Lift for two weeks got rid of it fast because the grip sucked and the bow was super jumpy, i had a hard time keeping it in the valley, the bow wants to jump. not to mention its super slow. I'd give it a 4.5 rating..

[@skoolynugenator1802]

Must have had the shorter one.

[@RemedyTalon]

if it's jumpy then you are just lazy on the backwall. You are supposed to pull into it, not relax.

[@o.n.e.wayhunting]

@@RemedyTalon exactly

[@westonnicholson]

This one’s at 70 lbs and you said you’re getting fatigued from shooting it so much then you want to get the 80lb mod, are you sure about that? 10:10

[@GymnasiumJ]

I was gunna buy a hat but the good ones are sold out. 😢

[@Futurase1]

SLOW? Your kidding right? The new cam is quite a bit faster than the previous Crosscentric Cam. I shoot PSE Levitate but the Lift is quite a bit faster than previous Mathews.

[@td1145]

i have a v3x 33 and lift 33. both 71lbs with 29" mods, 80% on the v3x 85% on the lift, the lift is 3-4 fps slower with a 440gr arrow. looking forward to getting 80% mods for the lift, hopefully that evens them out. i expect them to be exactly the same with the same mods.

[@bigz5262]

There was a guy here on KZbin, Privileged Bowhunter, he shot the Lift and V3X back to back and the V3X was faster

[@toddlymburner5783]

@@td1145no it’s really not! I have a V3X and my Lift shoots only 4 fps faster. It’s marketed as a speed bow but it’s more of the same.

[@brentbandy3566]

@@bigz5262The V3X was at 85lbs and the lift was 75 if I remember correctly. So, needless to say.

[@bigz5262]

@@brentbandy3566 they were the same. The Lift had 80# mods maxed out and the V3X had 75# mods with the cables twisted to 80#. They were within a couple pounds for sure. The V3X was 4 feet faster, which is nothing, but with as fast as the Lift is rated they shouldn’t even be close. All bow companies fudge numbers but Mathews is straight lying this year

[@THEHUNTJOURNAL]

what is that ting evertime you come to full draw?...

[@HaxenHunt]

I think it’s me hitting the mic on my shirt

[@steveera4169]

all these people mentioning difference in fps and it being slow. keep in mind that you lose fps by shooting through a whisker biscuit versus a drop away rest.

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

That's dumb. It's like 3 fps.

[@ApexArchery]

We shot ours through a whisker biscuit and got much higher speeds than what was achieved here.

[@Cpt-Pugwash14]

This is literally saying the exact same thing as was said about the V3X 33 a couple years ago.

[@jbr9433]

You should test a RVX34... Same speeds and better draw cycle by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar

250 fps will kill a deer dead idk why ppl are so hung up on speed it's not like you are making 100 yard shots like with a rifle you don't need a 300 350 fps bow to hunt with

[@RemedyTalon]

I guess you like making bad shots when the deer jumps the string and you miss because the arrow didn't make it there fast enough.

[@zethmartz2316]

Should not be making shots like that in the first place

[@ethanfeatheroff9135]

The worst draw ever made by Mathews the fact that it’s not that fast for such a stiff cam that wants to rip out of your hands is a flop the rest of the stuff about the bow weight features is nice

[@MaxsYoutube24]

I was very impressed with the Lift when I shot. I have a PSE Levitate and a Mathews V3 and I could easily tell it was miles better than both. My levitate is a speed demon but the Lift is just all around perfect in my opinion.

@@RemedyTalon every year every Mathews bow is the most demanded with the most hype I’m not at all wrong in saying this bow is a harsh draw and not producing great speeds that’s not an opinion it’s a fact this cam won’t last long without modifications to make a better draw u can screen shot my comments so when Mathews changes it u can remember me

[@RemedyTalon]

you thinking the draw is harsh is not a fact, it's an opinion. I shot both the Alpha x and the Lift and I thought the Lift had a better draw which is why I bought it over the Hoyt even though I already owned a Hoyt. It's also one of the fastest new bows on the market if you pay attention, what do you mean by not producing great speed? maybe you should just go buy a crossbow. @@ethanfeatheroff9135
