Best Draw Cycle: 2022 Hunting Bows
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лип 2022
- I figured I should follow up the 2022 ArcheryTalk Hunting Bow Speed test with a video on draw cycle, shining in one of these categories often means sacrificing in the other.
The contestants this year, in alphabetical order, are:
Elite Envision
Hoyt RX7 Ultra
Mathews V3X 29
Prime Inline 3
PSE EVO XF 33
Thank you to Canada Archery Online for letting me shoot this video at your shop. - Спорт
It’s interesting to hear different opinions on a bow’s draw cycle and overall feel. To me, the Mathews feels like there is a HUGE dump into the valley, whereas the Hoyt is completely smooth. (at 29.5” draw.) It just goes to show you that every feel is VERY unique to each person, and you shouldn’t go solely by the reviews you watch on UA-cam. It’s always best to find the bow that works for YOU. The best bow for you may very well end up being a brand that you didn’t expect at all!
Interesting review. I do wish I had tried a Prime, but I’m VERY happy with my Rx7 Ultra!
I have the rx7 set at 28.5. That is the lowest setting on that mod. It draws super smooth. It makes a huge difference were you land on the draw setting as it relates to a smooth draw cycle. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for your reviews
Haven't tried the Elite Envision of those bows but think the Athens Vista range has the best draw cycle of any bow I've tried.
Interesting note on this subject…. I’m sure other manufacturers offer other options for their bows as well, but the mod you tested on the Elite is the hardest drawing mod we offer. We have a smoother mod (less speedy of course) than the performance mod shown in this test, which won! I love it! I appreciate your views, even when we don’t win 😜
Appreciate the insight, Nathan. You’ve shot far more bows than I have (and shot them far better). All five of this year’s bows are very good. Speed is close and draws cycles are on the same level. Picking a winner will come down to personal preference. They all shoot better than I do.
You’ve probably answered this a thousand times on other videos I’m guessing, but what release is that? Thanks for the video!
It is called The Ringer by No Limit Archery. Use your ring finger to fire the shot. Cool product, but I don't know that they are business any more.
Your last place is my first place 😂😂 crazy how different everybody's preferences are
They are all very close. I preferred the draw cycle on the RX5 Ultra, but that is just my opinion.
I love the V3X also but it’s so out of balance for me because the grip is so low on the riser, takes a lot of weight to get a good balance and feel for me. I hope the eventuality move the grip up closer to center like almost all other manufacturers
I have the V3x 33 and it balances perfectly for me, with almost no stab weight. 3 on the rear bar, and one on the front. Mathews has always felt top heavy to me too...but the 33 is super sweet. First Mathews I have bought since 2008. And the ONLY company that puts the grip in the center is Prime...all others are off center.
Love the V3X but will take a lot to rid of the VXR 28.
One man’s opinion is correct. If the hoyt had shorter axle this year i would of picked it it cycle was that good. ( and im not a hoyt fan boy )
Elite always has the smoothest draw cycle. I shot a Mathews VXR I think I’m 2020 and to me that 70# bow felt like 80#’s. It was so much stiffer than the Elite Kure I shot that day. I shoot Xpedition, which I feel has a stiff but smooth draw cycle on most Bows. If I change bows, being that I’m 47, I’ll probably go Elite. Smooth, but still plenty fast enough.
I’ve been trying to find one of those ringer releases FOREVER
I bought mine used a long time ago. Gets very little use these days.
@@ArcheryTalkVideo if you ever decide you want to get rid of it I’d be a buyer.
@@jakedavis3743 I really just keep it around for when I bring new people to archery. All my other releases are hinges.
@@ArcheryTalkVideo mine are too. Keep up the videos! Love them
Wow! That Elite looks anything but smooth. You should try an Athens.
I've shot an Athens. Once owned an Athens Judgement. But Athens has chosen not to participate in our hunting bow shootout in recent years, so I stopped asking.
Elite is smoother than Athens. Elite is best draw cycle out there. And I don’t own an Elite, I’m just stating the facts. I’ve shot a lot of Bows and Elite leads the pack on draw cycle.
@@shaneboler1929 i shoot elite like most other brands when i buy a new bow. Have yet to shoot one i loved.
What release are you using please?
I forgot my usual release at home, so was using an older one. It is called The Ringer. It was made by No Limit Archery. You use your ring finger to fire. I'm not sure the company is around any more, but this is a cool product.
@@ArcheryTalkVideo ok thanks...
Curious why you chose the RX7 Ultra over the RX7....
That’s the one Hoyt suggested I shoot to get the best performance out of my draw length. Plus…I prefer longer bows.
Too bad you didn’t have the opportunity to test an Athens Vista 33. As smooth, if not smoother than the Hoyt RX7 Ultra for a helluva lot less money and you’re not giving up ANYTHING in quality.
Prefer the Rx 7 draw cycle of the 5
Bowtech best
I guess bowtech didn't make it to the list lolz
They didn’t send me a bow this time.
They should have sent you a bow
@@wcwcgarner2717 They are under no obligation. I have no doubt they get a LOT of requests, so I take no offence
Are you kidding? Bow Tec wins most All competitions
Bowtech is great. They've won two of my shootouts in recent years. But they didn't send me a bow to test this time. Hopefully next year.
