- Mathews Traverse Review. In this video, I review the Mathews Traverse which is a 2019 bow. I shoot the Traverse through the chronograph and also measure the noise rating with a decibel meter. To see my other compound bow reviews for this year, follow this link • Parameters for 2019 Bo...
I do love your reviews. You do a great job keeping your own bias out of the reviews. I feel like you provide a very honest, objective review. I agree, Mathews did well this year. There are so many good choices for 2019. Hard to go wrong. Thank you.
Thanks! I agree. Many great choices. So far, I personally am liking the Mathews this year. I still have some bows to shoot but they are quite nice.
Thank you Sean! I'm a beginner in the market for a new hunting bow and your videos helped me tremendously in learning the various options out there.
Great. Glad to hear it.
Nice review. I was going in to get new strings put on my diamond outlaw and ended up pulling the trigger on the traverse. Got a deal I couldn’t pass up!
Awesome I hunted with it last year. Here his a playlist with those videos if you want to check it out hunting seasons in Iowa 2019: ua-cam.com/play/PL-rtLON_MVhOaLcjbtYn18AXZtuO-evEw.html
I shoot a traverse and absolutley love it shot several bows before it and the was by far the stand out, not the fastest but smooth n quiet
Yeah really nice
I also purchased a Traverse at the tail end of the season last year. I picked mine up from Lancaster Archery and tried the comparable Hoyts, PSE, Bowtech and Elite. Narrowed it down to the Traverse and the Vertix. Went with the Traverse for the longer axle to axle and never looked back.
Another unbiased great review Sean. Keep up the great work buddy.
Thanks
Thanks for clearing up the way you’re rating on the bows.
You are welcome
Another great review! It's better to keep the limpockets locked down to the riser. To do this Matthew's incorparated the switch weight system on the cam. Also another way to judge the back wall is see how consistent the speed is from shot to shot
thanks
Another nice bow review. Nicely done Sean!
Thanks brother
Good video... thank you for making them... you make it look easy.
Always a pleasure 👍
Thanks
Switch weight mods not available on the Traverse.
Thanks
The mods can change the let off and draw length, without changing the cam. The draw weight on the traverse is only changed by the limbs.
Great review Sean
THanks brother
You saod 64# like it is underperforming. Do you have the 60 or 70 limbs on it?
It was 60 lb limb
Two comments:
1 - the cam mods that change draw weight is only on the Vertix. And yes it makes the bow more efficient (but kills the draw cycle in my opinion)
2 - would be nice to see your data compared side by side to other bows:manufacturers
I do a summary at the end after I have reviewed them all.
Sean's Outdoor Adventures look forward to it
I’m pretty sure that the Mathews vertix is the only bow that has the switchweight modules. The traverse and tx-5 use the regular modules and need limb changes to change weights.
Okay, maybe it was just a lower limb poundage then.
Correct
Nice video blog, Maintain the great work. Many thanks!
Thanks!
Maybe you should switch from a number to a description category. The back wall would change from 10/8/5 to solid/moderate/spongy and the let down would change to aggressive/moderate/passive.
Certainly can be considered.
Good job Sean. Still hoping to see you with a darton spectra e someday.
Thanks. Don’t know if any Darton dealers around me so it may not happen, but I’ll keep an eye out for them.
I wish I could afford a new Mathews!!! They run over 1000 here at pro shops love brand tho
I understand. They are nice
Hi thanks for the reviews just wondering if you have the chance to review the Athens ridge 34 or ridge 32 I just got a 34 the other day and I'm surprised how nice of a bow it is I think if more people knew about them they would buy them thanks again
I tried one once a while back and wasn't overly impressed by it. I did try to reach out to them to see if they would help me review their bows and they ignored me. I don't know of anyone who carries them around where I live.
Awesome video!!!
Thanks Moby.
Hey sean it would be so awesome if you did the Mathews TX-5 next! 💪🙂
I don't think they have any of those at the local shop but I will keep an eye out for one.
Bow of the year for 2019-Mathews Traverse!
I literally just ordered one last week.
@@seansoutdoorsI've been waiting 4 weeks now for mine to come in
@@Hoytshooter How have you found it so far?
@@beaurumple2340 Awesome
Are the limbs past parallel ?
I do not think so while it is at rest.
Nice review sean..
Thanks Rob
Curious as to what mods are on it? Those numbers for DW and length don’t add up. My guess is you have 30” mods on it and didn’t catch that.
30 inch mods with a 60 pound limb. I misspoke regarding the mod because the Traverse doesn’t have the switch weight mod technology, only the Vertix does.
I shot the treverse and loved it but not shoot the vertix did you find the draw to be stiffer in the vertix or find the vertix anymore silent also from what I've researched the switch weight allows you to shoot the limbs all the way down at any weight instead of backing the bolt's out so you're able to get the most efficientcy out of your bow
They felt pretty much the same to me.
@@seansoutdoors thanks nice to know will shoot both and see how it goes I loved the traverse and being a taller guy the string angle was nice my last bow was a 30 inch ata I shot good with it but like the way the longer ata bows hold on target more Mathews definitely stepped there game up this year
I may have missed it, but were those 60lb limbs? Typically when maxed out its slightly higher than the limb rating. I.e. 70 lb limbs usually comes in at 73lbs
Probably since the weight came in close to 65
That is what I was thinking also since my 60 lb. Traverse maxed out at 64#. Nice review and one of several positive reviews that have been posted for the Traverse. I don't think the Traverse is a game changer, just a nice solid shooting bow that is very easy to shoot. @@seansoutdoors
Traverse doesn't have switch weight mods.only the vertix
Thanks , that’s been noted already
If you had to choose just one between the Bowtech Realm Mathews Vertix or the Elite Ritual whatvwould it be Sean .. having a hard time deciding
I’d go with the Mathews Vertix over the BowTech, for sure! But I haven’t shot a Ritual yet this year so couldn’t say on that one yet, but the Mathews definitely impressed me a lot.
@@seansoutdoors thanks for the reply and also for your help
Sure thing.
I've been wondering what your option is about darton bows. I've been possibly looking for a new bow under $1000 and was wondering if you had any suggestions. I want it to have a hard back wall, be pretty fast, and draw smooth.
Maybe look at an Elite Enlist ua-cam.com/video/Yddh5fjE0DY/v-deo.html
Thanks
So have you had any experience with darton bows?
I have not had a chance to even touch a Darton in a long time. They have just not been around much in any of the places I have been over the years.
Ok, thanks
I'm calculating "true IBO" of around 328 with 85% let off (what the test would should if 70 lbs, 30", 350 grain and nothing on the string). That's about 10 under the advertised, which unfortunately seems standard practice these days.
How did you calculate to achieve that number? What formula that is.
@@seansoutdoors Use something like this
archerycalculator.com/estimate-bow-speed/
and input all the known parameters and then vary ibo speed until the output meets your results.
@@MrShysterme What have you done to verify the reliability of this calculator?
Can you do a review of the 2019 Obsession FXL?
I will try to see if there are any dealers that will let me review them. In the past Obsession won't help me get their bows to review.
hey sean is compound bow can bring in aeroplane? nice vedeo
You have to check them in and have them in a locked case.
Sean's Outdoor Adventures thanks for you reply me...God bless you
Thanks. God bless you too.
How you like your new state? You gotta take care of that cold.God bless
Thanks. Iowa has been great so far. God bless ya
A lot better on explaining your rating system ty
Thanks
That bow looked good on you. You should of probably walked out the door with that one.
Lol, I did buy one and that is what I hunted with all last year. I sold it though for this year.
Mathews bows have a weird grip an fits some not all....
Yes, they have had some complaints about their grips.
There grips are nice now
Mathews changed the grip this year, making it somewhat narrower and more of a mid-wrist grip rather than the low wrist of the Flatback and Focus grips of the past six or so years. Most that try the new grip find they like it according to local Mathews dealer.
It may have 60 lb mods on it
Maybe
You mean 60 lb limbs since the Traverse does not have the switchweight cams with the weight changing mods that the Vertix has. The Traverse has the same types of cams and mods that the Triax and Halon series uses.
Yup
