NEW 2025 LIFT X 33 REVIEW BY MFJJ (FROM A-Z)

[@jacobrivest1989]

Every time he reviews anything from Matthew’s I make a bowl of popcorn and read the comments. It’s like reading a comedy/drama novel, love it

[@codythron5307]

Most intriguing bow review I’ve seen so far is the Darton.

[@torreyintahoe]

I'm sure it will be easier to come by than this bow.

[@HeartlandMakesAndOutdoors]

When I bought my switch back, less than 30 days later they came out with the Switchback XT, so I wasn't going to make that mistake this year by purchasing the LIFT in September, been waiting for this release, WOW, back ordered into March well goodness, patience is part of bow hunting I guess it applies to purchasing a new bow as well hahaha. Thanks for what you do brother. Dale

[@MrRazorback1975]

Serious fanboy in the house!! Seriously though, 1/4” draw length adjustments are not available on mods that are very inaccurate resulting in a collection of $80 mods on your bench. Secondly, holding weight should be adjustable on the mod rather than mod specific, also resulting in a bigger collection of $80 mods. All bows feel different and Mathews mod system makes finding that sweet spot very difficult and expensive. Hoyt’s 1” draw length range on a mod with 1/4” adjustments is better. I assume Mathews didn’t do something similar because their current mods fit on all bows.

[@Buran01]

Not to mention that they removed the 34.75" Atlas that was designed to long draws up to 34" and replaced it with the Lift 33 XD, which with 2" less axle to axle will have terrible string angles to anyone above 30" DL...

[@TrinityWild]

@@Buran01 That was my thought too. That's something I'm going to explore when I get time to review the XD.

[@garystephenson2108]

The rx9 ultra was within 6 fps of ibo. The Mathews was actually 11 off. You said 10 (shocker) and the both got the same score on speed. lol. Cmon

[@hunthealthy1018]

This is his opinion...😒 😂 So, it's not fact, it's opinion, which means he can give what score he wants. You like Hoyt, go buy a Hoyt. 🤷‍♂️

No, testing is not "opinion". Testing is to follow test specification

​@@hunthealthy1018😅😅😅😅😅

[@davidknight1973]

Don’t watch

[@garystephenson2108]

Also he gave same speed rating on rx9 as the lift 29. The 29 shot 333. 15fps short. The rx9 shot 339 3 fps short. I guess I’m not sure I understand your test process.

[@colefisch931]

He was rating the actual speed, the honesty score is if it goes as fast as they say. He has brackets for the actual measured speed.

[@sheyanderson4371]

The Lift and Lift X are the first Mathews that I have had serious consideration in. I am a Bowtech guy and Mathews isn't even the #2 brand for me, but the Lift platform is very impressive. As much as I would like to try the X, I believe this is a platform they will continue to build upon for a few more years, so they will only get better. The optimist in me is waiting for a Lift 35 with at least a timing adjustment feature added in. If that ends up happening, it would be a near guarantee that I would buy my first Mathews.

[@mattburnsworth6188]

Why no draw length measurement? Especially when you mark down points for a 1/4" difference. Love the channel and your content btw.

[@timothyconrad4104]

Darton had the most accurate speed you’ve tested thus far

[@KTMsoldier1988]

Yes but look on dartons website how they label the speed. The speed is listed for different settings on the site. No one else does that.

My view of Mathews completely changed when Matt McPherson said the lift will have transferable warranties. (Really shows he means quality. ) Good bow!

[@WolfinWolvesClothing713]

For one bow line? Just because they almost had a catastrophe. Not until then. You just keep drinking it. They'll keep selling it.

I'm not too mad I bought a lift 33 in January of this year based on this. Still some cool upgrades though.

[@outdoorsmanofmichigan3858]

I’m obsessed with archery to fly out and to buy a bow and get it tuned by mfjj would be an absolute blast!!

[@Dustindoesitall]

I wish these companies would finally give us something completely new. Darton tried to really innovate and these guys slapped a new feature on the exact same bow.

[@kenn1320]

So kill a model you could improve, just to say you have a new model and charge more? Sounds like a way to increase your cost(new riser design=reprograming cnc, redesign, analysis, etc), hence reducing your profits, just to trick your customers that this new bow has better limbs and axle tuning feature.

[@Dustindoesitall]

@kenn1320 negative. Messages are bad at expressing any kind of emotion. The bow is killer, no doubt. I just love seeing real true innovation. I love seeing completely new renditions and now innovation.

[@josephfolsom2030]

Mathews did the complete renovation last year right after the Phase 4 renovation. That’s a lot of expense to do. Tweeking this year, I’ll give that one to them.

I like how Mathews said they tested them limbs for a year or two in the field before the LIFT was released.... clearly didnt test to much as they broke within 12 months.

[@trentforrest-qs6rp]

That's a cool bow thanks for sharing

[@WadeTheWild]

In your tests the Darton was the quietest bow I'm pretty sure, not Mathews. Darton was 75db I believe and Mathews 79db. Just wanted to point it out since I kept hearing how Mathews is the quietest bow. Darton should get more love as they're developing and innovating so well lately, of course that's just my opinion. Wanted to give them a shout out. Glad to see you gave them an overall score of 70.

They sent him on a free hunt last year. Of course he’s biased

[@GeddonAdventures]

he shoots a bowtech i think

[@Intermtn9736]

The Matthews fanboy is strong with this one. Still need a bow press for timing, and durability in field is an open question. Otherwise it’s just grips and fixing limbs that exploded last year. Significantly (5+) slower than Hoyt ultra, and harder draw. Meh.

[@huntsimple9527]

Agreed. This bow will shoot EXACTLY like last year's LIFT. Zero difference in shooting experience.

[@woodson159]

Just shot the lift x 29.5 and alpha x2 29.5 that Hoyt pulled wayyyyy harder man go shoot them I couldn’t believe it

actually if you have the SAS system you can twist your cables up to adjust timing while in the field.

Man, I might need to finally give up my VXR. Don't think I'd buy a Lift X, but I'd buy the Lift 33, that was a great shooting bow! Thanks for your fast posts @mfjj! I love this time of year! Fun to see all the new bows!

@@WendellAbigania Yeah for sure, that is a big selling point for a lot of folks. I don't tune my own bow, I have my local shop boys do that. This is my favorite time, if I do have the inclination to buy a new bow, I won't have to pay full price for last year's models. 🤷‍♂️😊

[@rhysgregson2293]

Missed the draw length test? Are they running a bit longer or a hit shorter than advertised?

[@africanbornadventures]

Lovely looking bow. If I could only choose one feature I think I still prefer Hoyts 1/4” adjustable draw and let off module over this limb tuning system. I own a press, so switching a spacer isn’t a big deal and it won’t move like a screw or bolt can over time.

[@tommy001996]

One thing too, with the SAS it is trully the only bow that you don't need a bow press. That s awesome IMO

[@ericp2881]

Bought a lift 33 and the limbs were the best matched of any bow I have owned. Tuned at 13/16 with no adjustments. Bareshaft perfect bullet hole at 21 feet. Not sure about side force on the limb...sit back and watch I guess. Have a darton on order 80# limbs...wondering how long the wait will be.

[@stacyhardin611]

Maybe I misunderstood what Josh is saying but you can use the Hamskea Epsilon on the LIFT X

[@blm148]

Problem with just giving a rating on overall speed and overall weight is this test will always favor a short ata bow because it’s easier to make them lighter and easier to make them faster. Same bows in different ata the short one always will get a higher number.

[@Shawnbo812]

Love his Mathews math

[@hopkinsfamily1891]

Great review. I was thinking this may be the year I upgraded, but the more I thought about it, the more I'll probably wait. I actually wish Matthews developed a timing adjuster and waited on the cam timing instead of the opposite. If my bow has bad timing, it shoots like garbage and I have only one option - go to the shop/buy a press and then it still isn't perfectly timed as it seems I always need a 1/4 twist. For cam adjustment, I always have the option to move the rest/loop. Sure, you lose efficiency and it isn't the best option, but it is an option that will result in bullet holes and good flying broadheads. It seems like the industry norm will be adjustment of the cam and timing off press for at least flagship bows in the very near future and if you don't buy bows often it's likely worth the wait if I want a Matthews or buy the Darton.

[@deangalvin7790]

I would love to see a comparison of flagship bows from a decade ago... compared to 2024/5 bows. Im from Aus, (getting left hand flagship is near impossible to try before you buy. But i purchased a 2012 Bear Anarchy 35 ata that cost me $1200 kitted out back then. Owned a couple of other brands and now my pick of the newer is the old V3x 33. Which cost me 4k kitted out... Ive tried emailing Bear to find me some new limbs shipped here for a decent price as its the best bow ive had that just seemed to work for me. Id be shooting it still but Bear never got back to me. If anyone can help me getting it sorted id much appreciate it. What im also trying to say is ignore every bit of maketing, try everything before you commit. The Anarchy is all over the V3X for me in alot of ways, it just worked

[@chris_f_eden]

I have my local pro shop that is amazing. The only problem is the local shop that sells Hoyt, Matthews, and Bowtech is not that shop. They are the arrogant shop that refuse to do things like soft knots because “it will cause nock pinch so we don’t do it”. Spent around $3,500 there and salesman doesn’t even get off his ass to help me when I go in to get a quiver. I have to find it on my own and go the register and he just says “what’s up dude”

[@Driller4]

Pretty obvious FYI but the bow industry has hit a wall ,the early 2000’s - 2016-18 was a fun era.

[@huntsimple9527]

Best comment on here. Nothing wrong with buying a new bow, but they are not going to change the overall shooting experience.

[@setharter]

Must have missed the draw length portion of the video.

[@iwilrage]

Tuning score: ? Customer still has to buy mods to change draw, have to buy mod to change let off, buy mod to change weight, have to remove cam to change strings.....that is a minus !

[@EvanRoshad]

You have to buy limbs to change the weight as drastically as you can a mathews with mods. $60 vs $250. Why do you need to change any of that after you buy the bow anyways?

[@tannervanasten]

mathews haters can fuck off. you have no reason to speak

[@derekpatterson7416]

You buy 1 set of mods to do all that

[@EvanRoshad]

@@derekpatterson7416 theres no other mods that can change draw weight...

[@j.hunter5007]

It would seem to me that in measuring the "load out" point, you would ignore the cam and just look st the string position. At what point does the string hit its maximum spread (distance) at the cams before it changes direction? In effect, you're then looking at a string triangle. For this bow that would seem to be at least an inch more than you are measuring.

[@tonysalecki]

So can the new “limb shift technology” replace the existing system on the original lifts?

[@TreyScarcello]

Have the same question - seems like an easier/cheaper way to get the new Lift X technology without buying a complete new bow - just changing out the limbs.

[@hillbillyhaze5981]

I’m assuming the limb adjustment only moves the cam side of the limb I wonder what that added stress will do to the limb’s longevity since it’s adding a bit of a twist to the limb. For that reason at this point I still feel like the bowtech system will be better but time will tell if it has any negative effects on the limbs but it’s still too early. Plus I’m sure they tested this before they put it out on the market… but I’m glad more companies are making it easier to tune their bows

[@nickdumas7873]

He is in love😂 more features than Hoyt ? Didn’t Hoyt sticks and mounting system come out before Mathew’s integrated sight , and Hoyt side bar system is way better.. confused on he’s point there

[@brentbandy3566]

@@nickdumas7873 If you believe in having everything “in line” Mathews definitely owns that game. There may not be a big difference between a bridgelock mount and a pic mount but the bridgelock stabilizers is a huge win for Mathews when it comes to integration vs Hoyt. I personally don’t think it makes a difference (and you’re paying a premium for that technology) but if you’re too lazy to unscrew your stabs vs sliding them back when putting them in your bow case, then that’s an advantage. I really wish Hoyt came out with some tunability options this year. I was 100% going to buy a Hoyt this year if they came out with that tech, but it looks like I’m waiting until 2026.

[@josephmarino6985]

I love innovation, but I think there is a hidden self-destruct button built into allowing the general public to tune their bows. Not intended for the choir, there is a lot more to tuning than moving a cam. Also, I am a fan of what you do on the top you should do to the bottom. Correct me if I am wrong, but I can only think of 2 companies that have an upper and lower adjustment.

[@jmcg1363]

Please do a video showing how to tune a field point and broadhead at the range using this bow.

[@WendellAbigania]

I believe paper tune first from initial setup (new rest, loop). If tears are big, swap top hats first to get a bullet hole. If you have a bullet hole with a very small tear, then micro adjust using the new tuning feature on the limbs. Then you broadhead tune. Move your rest to get your Broadhead to follow your field point. These adjustments should be very small/micro adjustments. Good luck! 🤙🏽

Question, considering a Darton I currently shoot 60 pounds but would like to move up to 65 pounds, If I shoot a 70 pound bow at 65 pounds, Is there a downside in terms of vibration noise or cam rollover? I’ve always been told that you should shoot a bow at its highest maximum draw weight. Does that hold true with today’s new flagship bows?

[@Fletchedchaos75]

Actually was a 331 fps average,but its Mathews,so they get a pass😂😂😂

[@hopkinsfamily1891]

I get 332.2 using the six numbers he showed. It looks like he does these in his head by using the top chrono and dropping the fastest and slowest and using the bottom to confirm it's about the same. I agree if you are going to state an average speed it should be the mathematical average speed. Same with weight, weigh it out of the box and go with that.

[@goelzprogram]

Good review. You should create a master google spreadsheet with all the bows/specs/ratings like the Lusk broadhead guy does. That way, we can weigh the criteria how we want, and you can update your ratings in a centralized location.

[@clintmurray3795]

This new tuning feature is awesome! I do have a question about it though, and maybe you don't have the answer yet. When changing strings and cables, are you still pulling the axel to change the yokes, and if so, how big of a pain is it with this he drive system?

[@jimrowe3026]

Do you just adjust the top limb?Or is adjustment on top and bottom limb?

[@codyspriggs6739]

If the Mathews rates their speed using IBO specs, then maybe consider using the 80lbs mods since that’s how they get that IBO rating. You will be much closer to that 343fps number.

[@jasoncarahgunnoe6977]

I noticed last year on the Lift 33 video review you measured the reflex and said it was 1 and a half inches. I went back and watched to be sure. This year on the Lift X 33 you measured reflex and said it is an inch and 3/4. Are they truly different on the 33 from last year to this year or was there a mis measurement last year or this year.

I thank you for the review and your time in filming and editing. Well done and thought out.

[@mattlundquist6596]

Did I miss it or did he not verify draw length?

[@Bigdancustomknives]

Ready to see the review on the Lift XD

[@jamesmorris4428]

Have you ever tested the sound difference between the different weights of arrows

[@Cparchery...]

Resale is always more on mathews witch is great that there bow coast about the same to buy but when you upgrade and sell your old one you get more than pretty much any other bow

Question, I see tophats are still on the inside of these cams-- Does it require tophat adjustments if cam lean cannot be taken out with the new tuning system? I'd assume yes, but figured I'd ask to anyone who knows better.

[@hopkinsfamily1891]

My understanding is there are no tophats. The cam is fixed to one limb and adjustable distance to the other. This system seems to have an advantage of some of the others as it can travel farther not requiring tophats or shims at all. No reason to press it for cam adjustments. Unfortunately you still need to press it for timing, so I'm not sure it's that great of an advantage.

I have one request if possible. When Josh says he has 300 bows on order I wonder how many are left handed. Could that be part of the review? Thank you.

[@matthewgoins2459]

Draw length measurements? Are they Still 1/4" long on draw length?

[@KyleOsentoski]

Love your videos MFJJ. Very informative without just trying to sell stuff. I just ordered a lift x 33, my first new bow since 2012. Been super impressed and your testing really helped me decide what I wanted. Keep it up!!

[@theone9328]

Without trying to sell stuff? You’ve got to be kidding me right? That’s the whole reason for a Youtibe channel is to drive traffic to the website and even more so, to Mathews so they can take him on another free hunt

[@DustyHamilton-jb1yp]

Will there be a retro fit option for those who just bought a new lift?

[@theone9328]

We get it, Mathews sends you on free hunts and makes you lots of money and you love them unconditionally.

[@flipfinish]

I love Mathews and all, but it's almost like they said "how can we make archery as expensive as possible?"

[@joshfredrickson6224]

Can you elaborate? This bow is less than $100 more than the previous model, and very fairly priced compared to other manufacturers...

[@hopkinsfamily1891]

They don't make a carbon bow, so your comment doesn't make a lot of sense.

[@deangreen631]

Im no engineer but is it not concerning putting lateral load on limbs.🤔 Also mathews bow historically run long. Would have like to see draw length adjustment and a speed retest.

[@raymondjones6024]

Once again Mathews with there innovation and why they crush the competition and sales

[@jbr9433]

Innovation where?

[@raymondjones6024]

@jbr9433 you can't see all the patients holding every bow manufacturers back from Mathews

[@juliusjames5577]

Well done Mohawk man

[@MondernMan]

The biggest issue with Mathews (limbs aside) is the mod system, which is a pain as others have pointed out. Mods make getting the right fit a bit difficult if you want to play with the let off or tweak your draw length. I much prefer Elite's or PSE's for draw length & let off. The new tuning system looks good (so long as it's durable).

[@MD-qo4im]

Great video! Did I miss the draw length?

[@jeremybuote779]

How big of a tear will the new tuning system correct?

[@alexcundiff3771]

Can't you use the S.A.S for timing?
