I've shot both. The Ferocity has a much smoother draw cycle considering it's slightly slower, and it's $100 cheaper. To me it wins. And I love the Drive cams. If you want a slightly more stable, longer ATA, slightly faster bow, go with the Drive. They are both awesome but if it were me, I'd pick up the Ferocity in a heartbeat.
Just bought, a 2022 Model ( Old Stock, New Bow RTS pkg. for less than, $350.00 ) the Brute NXT ( Same Evolve Cam as, Ferocity ) and absolutely LOVE it, Smooth Draw, NO Vibration, very Accurate, and,.. Quiet ! IMO,. the Brute NXT is, a REAL,. Bargain !
Great review as always. You're determined to turn me into a PSE guy. The eXpedite is at the top of the list along side the Centergy Hybrid. Gray is going to be the color of 2018. Best to you and yours for the holidays and coming years.
React = Response. Renamed due to other archery manufacturers using the name React. Same thing happened with the Realm, which was renamed to Ramped. BTW, just shot a Ferocity today, and this bow is an absolute shocker at it's price tag. It shoots and holds very well for a short bow.
how does this compare to the newer drive 3b? new to the sport and looking to sling some arrows in the backyard and bow hunt. found a nib ferocity and the drive 3b seem to be out of stock everywhere
You say you shot better with the Stinger. Did you use a back release aid with the Stinger? I’ll bet you’d be more accurate with a thumb. I’m seriously looking at the Ferocity but I wish it had an extra inch or two in axel to axel.
I'm am brand new to archery and am looking at the 2018 drive x and the 18 ferocity I wondering which 1 u would recommend or what u think the better bow is for the $ I can get either 1 of these 2 bows for about the same price any input is appreciated
Steve, if you are going to shoot fixed-blade broadheads, would you be worried about cam lean? Your answer will help me buy my next bow. Thank you! BTW, I binge watch your reviews because they're that good.
thanks. I dont worry about much. cam lean on all bows should be minor. what you are really asking about is tunning broadheads against field points. One reason why mechanical broadheads are huge. firts is you want to stop the arrow drifting so helical fletch. more spin is good. so you start with field points then you shoot broadheads. They should hit the same spot. If they dont move your rest a little. Should be simple. I have only used NAP Thunderheads which shot great. But I know it can be an issue. But the biggest issue is normally fletching.
I can imagine all the PSE blokes,, err Guys going, "Dang, that"s the Archery Supplies Guy!" HAHA! Your analysis for our perusal is as usual Excellent. And everyone loves an unboxing. Beauty Steve.
If I buy the 60lbs version, how much can I lower the draw weight? PSE don't specify that but on a site they say it goes from 24 to 60lbs and 28 to 70lbs.
Just got my pse ferocity adjusted today I'm a skinny guy so its hard for me to pull 60 I have it down at 47 until I can work my way up 2 big boy pulls mate
PSE have bows at all price points, Bear and Mathews do but not the same range. In my store I carry Bear and Mathew and Hoyt, customers generally find PSE better value. The Elite, Obsession I tend to compare due to similar design, My next review will be the Elite Enlist which I think is similar to theold Bowtech Tomcat. PSE is the largest so the best known, at the ATA show PSE is always happy to compare their bow on speed, specs, features and price to other bows on the market, other manufacturers are less happy to do so.
I was more curious how this compared to the hoyt powermax. Dicks is having a 25% off sale (dont know if they have those in aussieland), and this is one of the bows for sale along with the stinger extreme, brute force lite, ramped, and bear moment. Im an intermediate recurve archer and was not planning on getting into compound just yet but considering how good of a deal that is im very tempted to get a compound right now.
To me, I'm gonna say, VAPs whisker biscuit D-loop no peep, the question is going to be, for me, when I say, I'm down here at 18 meters, feels really nice to shoot, so I'm Steven Hann from Archery Supplies.
LegitimatelyAxeL sad thing is that they come out with a "new" halon every year. The 30, 32 and now the triax. The triax is a halon but 28inches and different dampeners
its not as fast as the epix and a tad slower than the drive...thou not by much. still looks a good bow thou lack of yokes is not bh/hunter friendly to me.
The VERY BEST Bow Reviews,.. on UA-cam !
THANKS,. Steve !
Finally, someone to review the Ferocity. Still on the fence between this one and the Drive X for my next bow.
I've shot both. The Ferocity has a much smoother draw cycle considering it's slightly slower, and it's $100 cheaper. To me it wins. And I love the Drive cams. If you want a slightly more stable, longer ATA, slightly faster bow, go with the Drive. They are both awesome but if it were me, I'd pick up the Ferocity in a heartbeat.
This bow has more like a Hoyt or Mathews style limb geometry and position, which is a nice change. It has a very compact look too. Nice touch PSE!
Best reviews I ever seen. I been torn between the powermax and drive and this bow, gotta get to the bow shop to test drive .
i own both Stinger x and Ferocity and i think Ferocity is definitely a better performer in almost all aspects
Just bought, a 2022 Model ( Old Stock, New Bow RTS pkg. for less than, $350.00 ) the Brute NXT ( Same Evolve Cam as, Ferocity ) and absolutely LOVE it, Smooth Draw, NO Vibration, very Accurate, and,.. Quiet ! IMO,. the Brute NXT is, a REAL,. Bargain !

Just as suspected, my PSE Shootdown came in last Friday. Be bringing that bad boy home soon. Thanks Steven.
All the best for 2018 to all at Archery Supplies :)

I love your reviews; best on UA-cam. Would this be a good next step from my Stinger Extreme?
You’ve got me hooked on PSE. I’m torn between getting the Ferocity RTS Pro or the Brute Force RTS Lite Pro. Which is the better bow in your opinion?
Why did PSE discontinue this bow? Do you still recommend it? Thanks from USA I love your videos!!
IT's STILL available,.. AS,.. the Brute NXT for, $350 to $487 on E-Bay !
You say you shot better with the Stinger. Did you use a back release aid with the Stinger? I’ll bet you’d be more accurate with a thumb.
I’m seriously looking at the Ferocity but I wish it had an extra inch or two in axel to axel.

Whats the difference with PSE brute nxt?

That is one hell of a shop
Any feedback on the RTS Package on that? Scope and Arrowrest are what I am interested in, are the PSE Micro pro accessories any good ?
Merry Christmas to you and your family that includes your puppy
Wish you would compare bows to non-PSE bows, if you dont have experience with those i guess its understandable.
PSE have bows at all price points, Bear and Mathews do but not the same range. In my store I carry Bear and Mathew and Hoyt, customers generally find PSE better value.

@@ArcherySuppliesLonsdale Also i love your reviews man, on compound and recurve. Youve helped me immensely in picking products and improving my skill.
Looks like a Mathews, performance sounds impressive.
Funny I did not see it until you mentioned it.
Decent bow ..not an evolve different cam close but not an evolve.. merry Christmas sir 👍 "SHOOTDOWN" REVIEW... PLEASE STEVEN!?!?????!!!!
Please review a Mathews Triax
To me, I'm gonna say, VAPs whisker biscuit D-loop no peep, the question is going to be, for me, when I say, I'm down here at 18 meters, feels really nice to shoot, so I'm Steven Hann from Archery Supplies.
well they are grouping well
Interesting to see after Mathew's brought out the Halon every company has followed their ideas
short limbs on bows where used on Maitland bows years ago. Probably other companies too. Maitland is just one I remember.
Hell BowTech fanatic looks all most exactly like I a Maitland Zeus
LegitimatelyAxeL sad thing is that they come out with a "new" halon every year. The 30, 32 and now the triax. The triax is a halon but 28inches and different dampeners
Look up the pse mach x. Pse has had the halon look before the halon had even been thought of.
Or the archery research velocity. Another pse brand. The mach x and velocity were in 2006. So 12 years ago pse made a halon.
I just killed a deer Saturday 9-22-18 with this bow. I have to say I love it and it shoots very accurate.
its not as fast as the epix and a tad slower than the drive...thou not by much. still looks a good bow thou lack of yokes is not bh/hunter friendly to me.
I think he looks doggie
Merry Christmas Steve!
