I really want to get this bow. I've felt it in hand and I'm hooked. Also thank you for all the work you put into your reviews. It is highly appreciated.

[@patrickdonahue5348]

Love this your review and all of them. You’re one of the best ones to do it. I think this is going to be my 2024 bow. Upgrading from a bear but not quite ready for a $1300 bow.

[@taithumble]

Shoots and holds just as good as my Revex 34" bow. At first, I thought it was also just a new name put on last year's bow, but the riser is different. The Ronan riser only has the curve on top, not the bottom like the Revex. So they saved money there. I think it shoots just as nice though.

[@HuntwithLMs]

Went to a few shops and shot a bunch of bows, Matthews, Hoyt, PSE, and Athens. Ended up coming home with the Ronan, Could not find a reason to spend the extra money on a flagship when this is an option. Smooth draw cycle, quieter than my 90's Darton and just a pleasure to shoot! Made in my home state too! Great review, I agree with your assessment completely!

[@BackyardBows]

Gotta love those speeds to 💪

[@HuntwithLMs]

it seems to spit them down range pretty quick! The accuracy is mind blowing, already down an arrow and a few nocks.@@BackyardBows

[@adamhuglo111]

😎 only thing wrong with these things is arrow upkeep!

[@HuntwithLMs]

@@adamhuglo111 down 2 more arrows and 3 nocks in the last 11 days. First robinhood a few days ago!

[@markkobza8129]

Just curious if you're going to be able to get the Alaskan xt to review.v

[@Cparchery...]

Have you shot this bow and the rvx side by side im wondering if this one is a little bit quieter and less vibration cause it is made with a more standard aluminum where the prime flagship bows use a stiffer aluminum witch is where some of there noise and vibration comes from

[@tpatz]

After shooting and shooting and shooting a bunch of bows, I went with the Ronan. Fantastic bow for the price.

[@AntonioBustamante-dd9yr]

lol keep watching all the prime!Ronan! videos! 😅 shot one at a local store! And feel in love! Immediately! New to archery and as a first bow!after they told me I could order one, with the revex camo patterns! 🥹🥹 I wanted to cry! lol 😅 got the morel scar!🔥🔥 trying to wait very patiently but it’s not working! Haha 😂 😅

[@adamhuglo111]

You will love it! High end 10 yrs ago is today's savvy purchase. Tune it and you will shoot lights out 👍

[@adamhuglo111]

Should have asked have you got it in your hands yet?

[@AntonioBustamante-dd9yr]

@@adamhuglo111 yes!!! Loving it so far! As a first bow. I like it a lot! Later down the road, definitely going to get the Rex 2! I really like there logo! As well lol

[@BelowAverageOutdoors94]

Another year or two and the aluminum bows are going to be the same price as the carbons were a couple years ago

[@BackyardBows]

While carbons keep rising as well

Would you consider this an upgrade from a prime inline 1?

[@MaxxHDROM]

the problem with wanting to buy a new bow for me is if i want to test a bow i am interested in i have to drive t like 5 different shops to test different bows. no shop carries what you want and always go.. we can order it.. lancaster is like a 4 hour drive for me and i did it for my boys but it was a PAIN.

[@adamhuglo111]

I have a prime rival, beautiful bow. Unfortunately being a short ass spot on 26" draw, had to put the stops at 75%, I have to be careful or she will jump the gate! 😁 Built like a tank.

[@johnhudson8598]

How does the Ronan compare to the Quest Centec?

[@l.i.archer5379]

Looks like the top and bottom cams are different shapes. I have Prime's 'younger brother' bow - The 2018 Quest Thrive. I bought it brand new from my archery shop last year at dealer cost ($440 +tx), because it was one of the last 3 he had in stock and he just wanted to get it out of the shop. It's a great shooting bow made with 82X aluminum on the riser that translates to zero vibration, and very little noise.

[@BackyardBows]

Quest made some great bows for the price

[@allenr6687]

I think the thrive could be the goat of budget bows ever made.

[@koben7139]

I think the test you do on these are great but have you thought about getting a 350 grain arrow to shoot through the crono to compare to their advertised speeds?

[@BackyardBows]

Never to be honest

[@Not_Andrew_Huberman]

Make bows stiff in the end where you have more scapular retraction, bows stiff at the beginning are hardest on your shoulder

[@k9leadstheway531]

I ended up going with the prime ronan as a new archer. Shot everything from mathew, hoyt, darton, bear, elite and bowtech. Prime drew smooth, felt good in hand. Don't know much about anything else, I just went off those 2 things being new.

[@k9leadstheway531]

Price as big thing as well

[@BackyardBows]

I think u made a great choice based off a good read, shot multiple bows, stayed a open mind well done

[@MadDecentJiujitsu]

Did you shoot the darton consequence?

[@k9leadstheway531]

Yeah, it was a top 3 for me.​@@MadDecentJiujitsu

[@tylerharty5537]

I have watched enough of your reviews and shoot really close to the same specs as you. If you like the bow im most likely going to like the bow lol. But im drinkin the koolaid mathews makes and have all the mathews accessories so the lift it is lol i love the direction they went tho

[@BackyardBows]

I think that’s a great option especially if u have it all, loved the lift, 29.5 or 33?

[@tylerharty5537]

@@BackyardBows 33 i love to shoot some local comps and only really hunt out of a saddle so i dont mind the extra length. However i can make my 33 weigh as much as a 29 now so that is excellent for me

[@jayrocha9300]

I want a prime Rvx32 but I wonder if they allow u to be lazy in Your form. If my head isn’t at the right angle I can’t level my bubble…or is prime like a red dot with zero parallax? where the dot is you hit…

[@Eightball2516]

Can you review the new bear white tail maxx the only problem with that bow is the axel to axel Is way to long that is why I don’t buy prime

[@AntonioBustamante-dd9yr]

Of course the bow shop calls me today and tell me they ordered it morel scar but prime called them saying they don’t have that one! But of course the shop told me they did have it! 😢

[@BackyardBows]

That is a sweet color / camo

[@thegameljuego]

Is it better than the whitetail maxx or the alaskan xt from bear archery...???

[@nathangroseclose2071]

I bet them bears will kill deer just as dead as that Ronan or even a mathews lift

[@chrisjanes3822]

I have a Whitetail Maxx and it's a great bow, probably the best bow on the market in the pricerange. I've had it a couple.months now. I have a NOS Prime Inline on the way to me now as well.

[@loganct5]

A birdie in the air has said that prime is looking at their new bows released this year because speeds are so off.. I dont think it was intentional.... clearly they had the intentions of making a "budget" flagship... Would just be cool to actually see them come out and apologize. Nobody has ever addressed it or will.... (fingers crossed). Ive shot prime since 2013. Lots of love for them. Im not bashing them, i just care to see the company succeeded.

[@allenr6687]

I believe the aluminum is the same spec as every other name brand flag ship quality other then prime 82x series. I imagine bear buget line is cast not sure though.. $850 is probably a little high but i imagine that is by design it is definitely going to take away some of prime flagship sales so the $100 -150 over price will help....That is my opinion anyways.. Sucks about quest i really thought prime was going to keep it going.. New bow prices are outrageous.. Has levi Morgan got any better with the bow of now compared to bows of past

[@user-un5km8ce1s]

So is the revex worth the money vs this bow

[@BackyardBows]

U can prolly get a revex for a great deal right now or discounted at least and that is up to the shooter Ronan is solid all around

[@minnesotawaterneckmiller5430]

Anyone what to talk about the cat next to the target at 18:14

[@BackyardBows]

lol they risk it all frequently

[@Not_Andrew_Huberman]

Lambos, Porches, and Ferraris typically produce more horsepower than claimed. Reason beating is when selling a car at that price the last thing they want to do is under deliver. Follow suit

[@pickin4you]

Now affordable to some is not affordable to many. I could not afford that now and you call it affordable. I do like that grip. I am an older shooter and miss so much the days of old when every bow had three different grips with it. All usually walnut or zebra wood. Now most have a freezing cold metal riser of one shape and we have e have different hands. I could afford a good bow back in the day, but I see everyone pricing themselves into extinction. They had better be careful with those high priced bows, as only the rich and famous can afford one. This is happening to everything from bows to guns to golf clubs. It’s getting insane.

[@BackyardBows]

I agree but there are more companies now selling more bows than ever. This bow is a great example of a flagship priced affordably.

[@amorton94]

Thanks for pointing out that relative terminology is relative. 😂

[@walterbrown8293]

Darton Consequence?

Yes can’t wait for that one

[@veteranoutdoorsman9978]

Everyones wants super speed but reality is if its between 240 and 280 you wont notice the difference. 30 years ago i was luck to get 200 fps

[@BackyardBows]

I have to agree

[@ronmorris1151]

Ibo advertised 342 why is prime so dishonest with Ronans speed ?

[@bnelsonmedia]

I feel like sound measurements can be grossly inaccurate (nothing you’re doing differently than anyone else, so not aimed at you guys). I feel like the sound of the arrow hitting the target is just as loud, if not sometimes louder than the actual bow itself.. and all these reviews (from multiple channels) test sound inside from a close range where the decibel meter is likely picking up the target as well. Just difficult to tell if the peak coming from the bow, or the arrow hitting the target. If the measurement was done at say 40-50 yards, you know it would be the bow noise, not the target noise

[@BackyardBows]

We do what we can I move the target outside the garage and put about 20 yards away I think there is enough variance to show it’s not the target but I could be wrong, it’s what we have got the momemt maybe will do outside one day and compare

[@bnelsonmedia]

@@BackyardBows that makes a lot of sense! it might help your viewers to explain where the target is when you do the sound tests. just my $0.02. love the content!

[@BackyardBows]

@@bnelsonmedia added that in the lift review today thanks for the sug

[@pipsqueak87]

Dude mind putting up a workout routine on your channel cause you’re yoked! Might be helpful for guys trying to up their bow weight

[@mikemellon80]

Seriously. Shoot your bow bow a lot. That will help your bow weight more than weights. Shoot at least 50 times a day 5 days a week. I workout a lot. And shooting is the best thing you can do. Deadlifts are different than drawing a bow

[@vfonte218]

These prime bows are coming up way short on their speeds! Stop lying about your speeds please. Not all of us chase speed anyway! Give me smooth and accurate

[@pickin4you]

I also prefer accuracy over speed all day long. I have spent a life outshooting guys with fast bows while mine looks like my arrows or lobbed in but they cannot shoot as many C rings as I can. Give me a slow accurate bow any day of the week that is comfortable to hold at full draw without worrying about my shoulders getting yanked out every time I want to let down. Too many speed bows have that bad issue. Too many guys thinking with testosterone instead of their brain.

[@Boatflipit]

@@pickin4youor get a fast accurate bow. Speed matters when it comes to hunting

[@jbroutson17]

The thing that kinda gets me about bows like this that are just renamed versions of last years bow is that it means they where overcharging us previously.
