SS34 is winner in many aspects and if you tested performance mod it's still smooth but 8-10 ft/s faster. It's 2 db louder than Mathews which in real situation is negligible. Great job Bowtech!
Go to your local archery shop, pick every bow that is in your budget, stand 5 feet from the target. Have the tech blindfold you then hand you bows at random, not telling you what bow it is. Then rank them on a 0-5 scale, 5 being the best. When your done, look at where you ranked each bow. You might be surprised on what bow feels and shoots best for you. Don’t buy a because it’s said to be better. Shoot what fits you and feels good.
SS34 for me. There are things I like on the Mathews too. One thing I really don’t like about the Mathews is if you relax at all at full draw, it wants to take off on you. I realize this helps “keep you honest” and you should pull through the shot, but it’s not great when you are at full draw waiting and waiting for a shot opportunity on an animal. They are super dead/quiet and the shot feels great though. SS34 just a better fit for me.
Are u having any issues with the serving on the cable being shaved down by a sharp edge on the module.
They actually need to be set to IBO testing spec to compare apples to apples. Bowtech on performance, and Mathews with 80% mods. Your comparison is anything but apples to apples. It's like gifting the Mathews an advantage, which it needs, to appear better than the Bowtech. Even in performance, the Bowtech has a better draw, and less of harsh dump into the backwall. Bowtech has the Deadlock system, way superior for tuning. Bowtech you can put Lucky stops on for adjusting your preferred holding weight and feel. The only real ding on the Bowtech is the cable issue with factory strings. Even then, zebra strings are nothing to write home about.
Agreed, on the apples to apples comment. After about 300 shots through my SS34 and had to swap out strings...NBD really, other than the cost...Now i have a set of sweet Winners choice Strings. I'll be holding this SS for a while!
Did you measure the true draw length? Mathews are known to run 3/8” long which will give it more speed where Bowtech is usually spot on with draw length.
just what I was going to say. That extra 3/8" draw length adds more speed to Mathews. Most people who do bow reviews tend to ignore this.
Dude, test them at 30”, I’m sure you can pull it back a little further even if that’s not your draw length, and put the dang Bowtech on performance! Test them at both their IBO settings! Then we can really see the differences!
Ss34 is my choice
I ended up getting the Phase 4 33 simply because my local shop had just sold their SS34. I may pick up the SS34 next year though, or go with one of their target bows.
I agree, those are both awesome bows. Bowtech made some good strides this year and Mathews managed to make improvements over the V3X which is really saying something…..but man, you put a lot of face pressure on your string!
Great review but you need to review the Bowtech on performance because that's what all their listed specs are based on...thanks for the review...Bowtech all the way!
I think you should have shot Btech in performance mode. The draw cycle is still likely as smooth as the Mathews but out shoots it speedwise/ a possible wash. I'm Shilling for the SS34 cause i just bought one, haha!
I'm an Oregon native, I grew up on Bowtechs and I love some of their features but... Mathews, absolutely Mathews. The Phase 4 and the V3x are the best shooting "hunting" bows on the market.
I had a bowtec icon bow, mine was stolen and need to replace it. I loved the icon bow but have heard great reviews about the Mathew’s. After hearing your reviews on both the bowtec and Mathew’s, I just may need to buy both👍
Bowtech Flip Disc technology and Dead Lock tuning for the Win!
You must spend a lot of time tuning your bow….
Just looking at both bows side by side. The grip alone is already better, you tend to get a better feel of the bow.
It almost tell you where your vibration is coming from. Closest you can get to a target bow. But truly this days is hard to choose a flag ship bow from any manufacturer, because they are all good. Now, when it comes to technology the bowtech ss34 smoke the Mathews. That’s coming from a mattews guy.
Yes agree. There are many cool things to both but Bowtech is doing some amazing important things with DEADLOCK. When it comes to grip that new TECH Grip from Total Peep for Mathews is amazing.
Both!!
I Love my SS 34. And i Love the death Look System. Ist is so easy to tune
Death lock.
What's the price for that replacement grip on the mathews 1-200 $ . shouldn't itt come free????
Both are amazing, I’ve shot them. It’s a hard pick. But Bowtech draw on comfort, and the adjusts you can make with an Allen key is a big one. If you flip the mods to proformance the speeds and the feel are the same. I’d go with the 34, but can’t go wrong with either
If you set the Bowtech to performance it will out pace the Mathews by 2-3 fps.
Phase 4 29 for me. Love it!
Shot and tuned both. Get the SS34. Also No limb cracking issues likes the phase 4.
Have 33 phase 4 and SX80, both great bows and like equally, only thing is Bowtech sounds like an air rifle when fired while the 33 is a whisp and when shot
If these two bows could make a baby, it would be the best bow in the universe... I love them both but after months of research I'm going with the SS34. Matthews makes great products but their lack of customization, ordering mods, & needing to go to the pro shop is not for me. Plus, I could never afford all their awesome add-ons xD
I love these types of videos! Keep these kinds of videos coming!
I was looking at the Mathews but now leaning towards the Bowtech SS34 or SR350. For the price of the Mathews you would expect the same adjustability as the Bowtech or other brands. Instead you need a bow press to play around with top hats and modules just to get anywhere near the Bowtech deadlock system plus spend extra $ to get it right. Mathews is really starting to lose it and charging more for split limbs and more rubber, plus overpriced proprietary bridge lock stabilisers and scope mounts just shows you they are not worth the money.
Don't think you can go wrong with either. I do think you should have shot the Bowtech in both comfort and performance just so viewers can compare. There is one thing about Mathews: It seems to me that they are pricing themselves into the stratosphere. Great bow. Sure. But just look at the price of a Mathews Stabilizer. Over $250.00. Same for the quiver. So how much is a completely loaded up Mathews bow? Crazy
I’ll settle for the bow tech jus for ease of tuning!
Why shoot the Mathews with a $200+ stabilizer and nothing on the Bowtech?
I’ve owned both manufacturers
Personall preference but Mathews gets the nod
Total peep grip is bigger than engage. At least from my experience. More blocky, steeper grip
How would you tune the Mathew’s ? Tuning bowtech is easy and easy to understand
I will leave this comment up to a PROSHOP to answer. I know they have to do a SHIM technique but that might be wrong.... any PRO SHOPS can answer this one? @mikesarchery
It's not real hard to make a choice here. Mathews cam design is way behind technology compared to bowtech cam and module and deadlock system.
If total peep or any company for that matter, would come to their senses and make these grips without all the added wrist angle they’d sell millions. I’ve bought them all and sent them all back. The total peep, with just 2 degrees would have been perfect but, the way it is was aweful.
Have you tried the Shrewd?
Yes. It was bad also. The shrewd didn’t fit the recessed part of the grip well at all and made the feel of the grip worse.
Taking the grip off, putting a pair of side plates like whisper creek on(they’re very slightly thicker and fill the grip out more).
I shot both and bought the bowtech Saturday
Ss34 allll dayyyy.
It's a toss up for sure. If you don't keep bows for long time I would choose Mathews for a higher resale. Other than that I would say Bowtech wins.
Bowtech for me. Good luck to all this season
SS34 all day long!!
Bowtech for the win but the Mathews doesn't exactly suck.
I've heard some concerns about the phase 4 limb consistency with temperature variations. For me it's just a can of worms I'd rather not open. Bowtech is leading the industry in tunability and draw cycle. I want to see long-term testing with someone shooting both bows on a field archery course and comparing their scores.
Speculation only…..haven’t seen any reason to worry about it.
@michaelcolthart4006 out of respect I'm not going to name the source that stated they had seen the problem first hand, but it's someone that knows what they are talking about.
Bow tech for me
what you did not mention is the fact that bowtech can get a 40-50 for some older shooters who like a longer riser,,, phase 4 does not ,,,,,
Doug this is a great point!!! I will remember this for future videos. Thanks 🙏
SS34 is my pick
More adjustability
Comments full of Blowtech fan boys
Shoot what is comfortable for you to shoot hoyt mathews bowtech Elite PSE darton not what someone tells you to shoot
I'll take the Bowtech over the Mathews any day of the week. It's still only 3 strings you need to change on the Bowtech vs 5 on the Mathews, with the latter needing cams taken off in order to do so. I'd rather make 3 strings than 5. Also, with the Bowtech Deadlock system, you can tune the bow without removing anything or swapping out cam spacers. Buy a Mathews and you'll be spending another $60 on a set of "tophats."
SS34 any day, for the tuneability features.
Yea! A hundred $ is a half tank diesel, thanks to Biden. But these new bows are something awesome. Thanks guys for the comparisons.
Even if u think the ss34 is better and u prove it I’ll still buy the Mathew’s
Man... you can't leave the performance mod out of the review. Your reasoning is nonsense the performance setting just adds a bump in the back! And on the longer ATA bows you feel that hump even less
Disagree 😊
