-Speed Test- 80lb Mathews V3X vs 80lb Bowtech X80 💪🏿 PLUS Hoyt Carbon RX7 Ultra Review🔥🔥🔥

[@PrivilegedBowhunter]

Just want to state the obvious here folks. With the Hoyt being 10lbs lighter and an inch shorter in draw length the speeds will naturally be slower than the other two bows. The Hoyt was thrown in purely to show my thoughts on the Carbon bow.🤙🏿

One thing that Matthews has over the other bows is it has the monkey tails that dampens vibration if you put those on the other bows that helps

I'm 61 years old and have been shooting bows up to 90lbs since the 80s. Certain lifestyles/hobbies require staying in shape. Even worse is going into an archery pro shop where they can't shoot my bow because of weak shoulders. To them I say, "Get off your a$$ and hit the gym".

I was actually thinking of getting theX80 this year, but I'll have to check out the V3X. Some may question why we need the heavy draw weights. Where I live in Eastern Oklahoma, we have tons of wild hogs, offering year round hunting. I've seen arrows from 70lb bows bounce off their shoulders!

[@PrivilegedBowhunter]

There are a bunch of reasons to shoot 80lbs. It's weird to me that it bothers people. The same way it would be weird if someone walked up to me in the gym and said I should lift less weight or run less.🤣🤣🤣

[@JacobSchmittDeerHuntingSchool]

I’m not saying not to get an 80# bow but I still don’t think if you dead center a big hogs shoulder it’s going to make much difference. They are a very solid animal. I think its going to be tough to push a broad head through it with any bow.

[@BOOMER-rs5qn]

@@JacobSchmittDeerHuntingSchool You don't think? Are you speaking from experience or from KZbin videos? I've probably killed more hogs with bows than most bowhunters have seen. The extra kinetic energy gained from 80lbs vs 70lbs is a night and day difference.

[@JacobSchmittDeerHuntingSchool]

@@BOOMER-rs5qn I am just a realist bows and shoulder bones don’t mix. Get a 100# bow shoot a big hog in the shoulder bone and I still don’t think it’s going to make much difference. I never went out to test a bow to shoot through hog shoulders I have a 30-06 if I want to blow through their shoulders and it doesn’t even come out the other side. I do know that for a fact. I max loaded 165 grain 30-06. These are 250-300 pound hogs. Shot at 25-30 yards. I was really just talking and I feel really strong that it’s not going to make much difference. I bow hunt a lot and have killed more deer with a bow then I have anything but what the heck do I know I’m just a country boy. LOL!!! I just seen we’re you said a 70# bow bounced off. I just don’t see a 70# bow bouncing off and a 80# bow laying the smack down with the same impact spot. I don’t think 25fps increase is going to make much difference. Shot placement is what feels the freezer. Like I said what the heck do I know???

[@Barnzeys]

@@JacobSchmittDeerHuntingSchool I agree with you mate. You can have all the poundage in the world but if you can’t hit your mark then what good is it. It’s like people who are poor shots with a rifle tend to go for massive calibers to make up for their inadequacies. Mind you, I’d shoot an 80 pound bow. I did when I was a young man. Not sure how I’d go now 30 years later. Hahaha.

[@upstreamer1661]

It's pretty misleading to call a carbon wrapped aluminum riser a carbon bow. A 34" axle to axle, 4,3 lbs bow it's not a light bow. Nor is a 30", 3,9 lbs bow,... especially if are called carbon bows. I do own aluminum riser bows which are lighter than the Hoyt "carbon" bows.

[@billmcstay194]

Those faux carbon risers are also made in Chi Na... Nah... not happening.

[@ianmcgaughey1]

Risers are not wrapped. Tubular aluminum is not strong enough to not bend under draw pressure. Quit reading archery talk.

I guess your Matthews are tuned, and the Bowtech were not. it affects how the bow perform. 👍

Nice review! Hate to pick it apart but, your drop away on the V3X has an advantage, they typically add 7-5 fps.

[@PrivilegedBowhunter]

It's not 5-7 fps it's 1-2. The bowtech has no peep or, monkey tails on the string to slow it down. The Mathews has much more weight on string than the Bowtech so, any advantage gained by the drop away is likely negated by the string weight. - Mahalo for watching and commenting🤙🏿

[@drivenbyarchery8676]

Nice video thanks. Only thing im thinking of is the bowtech really liked the weight and spine of the middle weight arrow. Crazy how the right arrow changes things. Again great video thanks.

[@Tom_Monahan]

Look at your right arm position at full draw. The draw length is correct on the Mathews, and short on the Hoyt and Bowtech. I’ve got no dog in the fight, but you are cutting the latter two short by not having comparable draw lengths.

[@PrivilegedBowhunter]

The Bowtech and Mathews are the same DL and DW, the Hoyt is at 30" 70lbs.

[@Tom_Monahan]

@@PrivilegedBowhunter I understood completely that the Ultra was limited by the module to 30” and by the limbs to 70lbs. You are not a 30” draw length and it showed. The Hoyt had you looking very uncomfortable. If you were to measure the actual draw lengths of your Mathews and the Bowtech, I think there would be be a noticeable difference in length. The Bowtech had you almost as uncomfortable as the Hoyt. You should rename the video - The 3 stages of Chicken Wingedness Measure the draw lengths of the Bowtech and your Mathews and set them equal. Then re-run them on the chronograph. I’d like to see the numbers when it’s a fair fight!

@@PrivilegedBowhunter yeah it’s a real problem on the forums to. People are using the excuses of wrong mods, incorrect draw length, faulty chronographs etc… it’s just not a fast bow. Some Bowtech fan bows just can’t accept it. I think they would be better off accepting it for what it is (slow) and get mad at the Bow manufacturers for fudging the number by that much. That’s why reviews like yours are very important! Because you can’t go by the numbers the bow company puts out because they lie. People need to watch a review or shoot the bow themselves and get a reading. Bow companies are way to comfortable lying at this point. Bowtech should be ashamed!

[@tyb3938]

Here is the crazy part, adjusting for IBO the Hoyt was the fastest with the two heavy arrows running equivalent 336 IBO. Bowtech comfort way low and Mathews slightly lower. From my research the Hoyt will run faster towards the longend of the short draw mod, such that you will actually get more speed from a 30.5 draw than a 31 draw, which works perfectly for me, but not so much for big guys like you. My guess is the hoyt in 80, in 31 draw is slightly slower than your Matthews, so you likely chose the perfect bow for you. Thanks for sharing
