WHY THE VXR SUCKS - What to do to fix it - this will change your accuracy guaranteed - | HAXEN HUNT

You’re out of your mind. That bow is awesome. You just can’t shoot.

[@HaxenHunt]

Haha you’re right.. I can’t shoot😅 hahahaha

His form is garbage

[@perrybeede9498]

He couldn't shoot it the way he wanted until he took the grip off..boom ! So easy trolls..

[@HaxenHunt]

Heck ya! That’s good to hear! Some people it works really good for! Some people it’s a little harder to work with but I’m glad it works good for you! 👊🏽

[@garretcarden1]

I was having similar issues, removed the engage grip, wrapped it with tennis racket tape, now it feels perfect. Havent had major issues with my zebra strings. Had some peep twist, got it fixed. No other issues so far. I've been shooting it like crazy since I got in march

[@HaxenHunt]

Heck ya! Good to hear man!!

[@kevinlastname7001]

I did the same thing with my VXR!! That’s crazy !

[@Civicfa5king23]

When I bought my vxr, and that grip was the first thing to go. Hate that grip. Once you get it off and run side plates it's a great bow!

[@justinvzu01]

So, the grip really is a personal thing. I'm just a target archer, so I haven't any bows with actual grips, I shoot an older PSE Xpression, but I can tell from experience that any grip does work. You just have to adapt yourself. That being said, just get a Beereal grip on there and you're done. lol. Besides that I would like to point you to your draw cycle. Never pull towards your chest. It makes the bow feel heavier, increases risk of injury and adds steps to the process of anchoring. Drawing towards your chest is often seen with bow hunters, hell, Donut Operator did it too in the latest Demolition Ranch video. But it's often an indication that your draw weight is too high. For hunting anything 50lbs or higher is good, so you're much better off just lowering the draw weight and working on a proper draw. Hold the bow high, get your elbow in a straight line with the bow, and lower the bow onto target while drawing back in a fluid motion. That'll bring you immidiately to your anchor, and acquires your target.

[@kadenjameson1764]

I totally agree, I’ve got the same sight and bow. Been dialing it in over the weekend. Usually shoot with a lanyard over the wrist. I’m not a huge fan of the grip, but I’ve also been able to adjust my form and grip slightly and my groups have been so tight that I don’t shoot the same spot so I don’t bust an arrow.

[@kadenjameson1764]

A grip would make it much easier and less of a worry tho. The bow is crazy accurate and smooth, grip isn’t the best tho

[@elisimracing]

I love the grip and have zero issues with it but I do hate the peep rotation from the Zebras. No serving separation and I have over 2K shots on it. I’m changing the string after I go hunting.

[@HaxenHunt]

That’s good to hear! Some people it fits really well! Others it doesn’t haha and that’s with every bow for sure! Thanks for your input!

[@connerford4140]

Would you rather shoot a Mathews or a Hoyt because both are really good

[@BOOMER-rs5qn]

Buying a Mathews then having to pay for new strings and cables is about price equal to buying a new truck and having to buy a new engine. Makes no sense to me.

[@HaxenHunt]

Honestly I kinda wish I bought the Hoyt AXIUS ultra this year😬

[@johnnyboi5661]

I rather shoot the new hoyt Torrex xt than the vxr 28 or 31.5, it has a better and smoother draw cycle. For the Vxr about 3/4 of the way, on the draw there’s a very hard ridge you have to be able to pull over to get to full draw. It is easy to hold at full draw, I’ll give it that but that draw cycle is something else even at the same poundage as my own bow. Hoyt probably has the best draw cycle for bow but for Matthews I would say their bows is good for speed and the holding time at full draw.

[@jeffmiracle6088]

Picking up my VXR 28 shortly. Did you have any problems with the Fast Eddie and Tight Spot setup? That’s the combo I am planning on. Thanks.

[@HaxenHunt]

No problems at all man! Fits really good and looks fantastic!

[@jacobsmall9109]

I bought a used 2020 VXR 28 and I can't even get it sighted in at 20 I've tried everything. I'm left handed shooting a right handed but I was taught shooting right and been doing fine but I'll try removing the grip

[@brucehillbillybarthalow3786]

What would be a decent grip material for the up coming winter?that's a bummer having to replace the string n cables already

I’m tryin to find out what would work really good!

[@claybenton8657]

Glad I found this video. I got the VXR 31.5 and was shooting this morning and constantly thinking how much the grip didn’t feel right. Also having arrows be perfect vertical but fly left for no apparent reason. For me I just can’t seem to get a good feel for the grip. Gonna get side plates this week. I also never fired a shot with factory strings. Had custom strings put on when the bow came in.

[@ryanrainville1041]

I haven't had any trouble with the grip on mine really. I've only been able to shoot out to 50 though but my groups have stayed pretty tight.

[@HaxenHunt]

That’s good to hear! There’s been a couple people say that they don’t have much of an issue! I shoot out to 120 so it’s really noticeable

[@calebschmucker4391]

Yeah I’m glad I didn’t get hurt from it either. Bow was completely fine just string damaged. My bow tech tried saying I dry fired it but I told him what happened. He still doesn’t believe me on it. I have to take my bow over an hour away from my house to get worked on now.

[@HaxenHunt]

Geez!

[@vernproksa5902]

Sorry man I love that grip. But I did hear about the zebra strings so I went to a different set of strings myself. I went with the ABB strings. However the Matthews VXR 28” is an awesome bow and I shoot out to 100 yards and get Better groups than my two BowTech’s. I consider the Matthews VXR to be one of the best bows out there. And the way you stated at the beginning of your video that there were so many problems with the VRX you made it sound like the bow is crap. When really The only problem was the strings. Because the other problem is that your hands don’t match up with the grip and that is you not the grip.

Seems to work fine for me. I don’t really mess around and pull the trip on and off? Who knows maybe just the person shooting

The fast Eddie does not have a first axis adjustment, so if you have any problems with the left and right past 60 yards the sight is the problem.

Nothing right now, just the bare riser

[@MrJPW76]

I hate that grip as well. i went to the side plates and its night and day. im shooting the Vertix and its super easy to torque. If my fingers touch the front of the grip at all the bow torques. ive really had to clean up my grip because of it so its probably not a bad thing.

Yeah the aftermarket strings make a big difference!

[@jasonmoore2346]

I'm really disappointed to hear the strings are garbage. I just ordered the VXR 28 yesterday. It was either that or the bowtech revolt. I am shoot the bowtech admiral 09 now and for some reason after putting new strings on it I can't get it down past 76 pounds of pull and it's only a 70 pound bow.

Good to know! What made you not like it?

[@humanperson4132]

Twisted X are great strings. Those or Gas strings, you can't go wrong. That said, my zebras stretched 6lb in a year before settling. I couldn't wait to get them off. Watch those yolk saddles, the bus cable just pulls straight through that half moon one day without warning. Keep an eye on the loop where it's hitched around the plastic.

[@ericolds1410]

Run the side plates, made the grip so much better

Change your nock point to change the feel of the grip.

Ooooooooooo kay????? Why would you shoot a 28inch ata for 60 to 100 yards???? I have the 31.5..... It is customize from the strings to the grip...... The only things that are completely Mathews is the rest, quiver and stabilizer system...... I am completely happy with her........ She shoots like the Halon and Triax........ I would love to come out and shoot with you.......

Yeah the second I got rid of the grip my groups got way tight at 100!

[@PureBreedProductions]

I have three other Mathews Bows...they all have the Focus Grip and my grip is consistent. I bought the VXR 28 and found that they don’t make a Focus Grip for it. I contacted Mathews and was told that they don’t intend to make a Focus Grip for the VXR. Sadness (almost madness). Good luck his season! 🏹👍🏻🏹

Haxen Hunt I actually have shot Hoyt for the last 15 years or so I tested all of the flagships and I’m really impressed with the draw cycle especially, the grip was my favorite of the flagships. No hand shock or vibration. So I was excited to make the switch to the EVO NXT 33, you should test it out my man.

[@drested1793]

Had the exact same issues with my Traverse. Got rid of the grip, went with a higher wrist on the riser, put an offset bracket on the front stab(no back bar). Made all the difference. That said, the grip was the major issue.

That’s zebra strings for you haha

[@neoison4915]

I have a VXR 28

[@pfv3462]

What strikes me most is that "Almost all pro shooters" immediately replace their bowstring after receiving it from the dealer and because the original ones still stretch so much in the first months! As Podium Archer MFJJ points out they don't have the time to stretch the bowstrings on new bows, this is too costly and not feasible. Chris Bee also immediately replaces the handle because they are so damn good! I think you can improve any bow, or adjust it to your colors. I only regret that they cut back on their compound bows and that the customer immediately has to incur additional expenses!

[@jasonbarnes3188]

I have shot Mathews since 1997 by a new bow at least every other year. Right now I own seven models never had a string break ever and put thousands of shots on a set of zebras before replacing. My vertix that I hunted with last year had probably 3000 to 4000 arrows and were still running. I change strings every year regardless but the factory strings and cables still had life. I have had way worse luck with Hoyt and pse factory strings.

[@kentbrobeck5140]

Hey brother, I've watched most of your videos comparing bows this year. I always focused on your first impression of the bow you were shooting. As in if it was the first time shooting it etc. Now I will preface this statement with a little background. I am/was a Hoyt bow owner. I liked their product and had no reason to switch. I was buying a Axius Ultra this year. That was it. Done deal. Before my Hoyt I owed a Mathews. So I watched you shoot the Bowtech Revolt and Revolt X. You were blown away by the draw, how dead in hand it was and how it held on target. I went out and shot one. The Revolt X is what I shot. I loved it!! I didn't buy it right away. I never do that. I looked at all of the big dogs, Hoyt, Mathews, Prime, Elite. Bowtech Revolt X was it buddy!! That bow is amazing!! Smooth as a mofo!! The valley? Oh man is it something! 85% let of with 70 lbs limbs. That's like 10.5 lbs holding weight. I could go on and on but I will just talk about one last thing, the grip!! It's the best grip I have had my hand on!! Dude you should have went with that first thought about the Revolt. You were worried about the limb pockets or something about it being plastic. There are certain plastic composites that are stronger than steel or aluminum. Take bowstrings for example. That's plastic do you think it's strong? I did not even mention the cam lock!! Dude the Bowtech Revolt is one badass bow!! Thank you for your video because it got me to try it. Btw..Mathews grips have always sucked!! Check out Rattler Grips maybe he can make you a better version of what Mathews put on the VXR. God bless.

Sorry bub. Blaming your equipment for bad shooting is a rookie move. Doubt if youre as a good as you think you are. Unless something is broken or way off, any bow in the right hands shoots well. New grips, properly tuned equipment and arrows only tighten up groups. Groups like the ones you claim are bad because distance magnifies bad shooting.

Well if it says anything, I made a perfect shot at 130 on a buck. I’m no professional but I do work my butt off to be the best I can

[@sirodutexas1484]

@@HaxenHunt not a nock on your shooting, but you can't blame a grip or factory strings for shooting poorly. Unless you have a tuning issue or broken equipment, every bow can be shot well.

[@HaxenHunt]

Dude all i said is the grip doesnt work for ME

[@braidend579]

Hey haxen these 10 dolllarrrrr stickers are a little small

[@HaxenHunt]

Yeah it’s been mostly for being able to have a chance at winning a bow, but I’m working on getting bigger ones made!

[@Beared-Jay]

Over a year with shooting 100 arrows or so a week with the zebra strings and zero twist. Just my opinion!

[@morningwood801]

You draw the bow back awful and you slap the trigger...I’d be more worried about that then making a video about an uncomfortable grip.

[@HaxenHunt]

😂 dope

[@Dayhaus]

Try out the ultraview grip I love mine more flat at the back

[@jayonez137]

When I picked up my V3 First thing I did was throw the engage grip away and ordered an Ultra View Bee Real grip! My 60 yard group shrunk exponentially. What can I say it just works. MATHEWS really needs to rethink their grip

[@steve8828]

I love the Engage grip. I find it very repeatable. I struggled with the old flat back grip.

[@HaxenHunt]

Good to know! Sounds like it works for some and it doesn’t for others! Thanks for your input!

[@ryanparent8880]

I have a 31.5 I could really use em.:)))

[@HaxenHunt]

Well you’ve got good chances my friend!!👊🏽🔥

[@andyw237]

It is sad that manufacturers are STILL putting dumb cheap plastic grips on otherwise good bows (Mathews, Bear, Hoyt, PSE etc)! grips cause torque, any bow with a cheap plastic grip on it always handles better without it. take the grip off and shoot from the riser, accuracy will improve. it would be nice to see more bow makers use a riser grip instead, like Prime, Athens, Obsession etc. those bows all shoot great with very minimal torque problems.

[@Kgsoloman-ou6wm]

I bought a vxr 28. Was okay, ended up selling it for the 31.5 because I thought maybe it was the shorter axle that made me shoot iffy (I have a 30” draw). Got the 31.5, kept having torque issues. The strings kept twisting peep, would set the poundage to 70 within 2 days it would be down to 68. Sold it. Bought a pse Mach 1. Instant bullet holes, no vane clearance issues on the cables or riser like Mathews( even with rest at centershot), set the bow to 72 lbs. a month later still at 72 lbs. shooting the pse made me realize how jumpy Mathews are off the back wall. Needless to say, PSE is my brand now.

Come men really!!!!

[@bryanhapka6957]

Try Chris Bee’s grip!

[@HaxenHunt]

Yes I need to really bad!

[@EarthbendR]

So the grip wasn't working for you personally and you did a string swap...That means the bow "sucks?" Nah....mine shoots great. See what you mean about the grip. Nbd. Simple swap. Custom strings on the way as well. Bow is sick. Part of the fun is making it your own.

@@HaxenHunt yeah and mine are not ghost strings or anything of that quality but they are for sure better than zebra my next ones will probably be hogwire or ghost

Dude you should try twisted X! He makes some killer strings!

I will change that... then agree with the guy on the last post... it's not the bow it's the Indian shooting it...what a great bow...

The REASON ANY company uses a particular ANYTHING is because of COST. If they get it CHEAP and can sell it to you for the same INFLATED GOUGED price that is what they do.
