- Опубліковано 16 сер 2024
- Overall one of my favorite bows not only from this year but from the beginning of backyard Bows. Advertised accurately is an understatement. So smooth you just have to try yourself.

I’m 61 years old and have been shooting compounds since I was 26. I’ve owned Hoyt, Bear, PSE, Martin and thought I’m just never going to find a bow I enjoy shooting. My PSE had a broken module and I wasn’t willing to wait 2 weeks for parts to come in because I’m leaving for elk in a month. I shot a new expensive Hoyt and buddy suggested I test the SS. OMG it was smootherat 69 lbs. compared to my PSE at 66. I bought it and was amazed how quickly it paired with my EZV bowsight. I’m over 1000 shots into it at my club and it’s the best (though nowhere near the most expensive) bow I’ve ever shot. Really happy with it
I'm still running the Bowtech Insanity CPXL. Shot the SS34 at the archery shop a week ago. I'm definitely going to be hunting with it next year. So smoothe.
Thinking the single most relevant “ thing?” an archer can do is to use a bow that you can draw smoothly AND easily. For dozens of shots, not just few. This will give you more incentive to shoot AND you will become a better shooter. It’s about CONTROL. From the second you properly set your feet until the release has broken YOU need to control the the entire cycle. If you busting your guts to draw etc you are NOT in control. The bow is dictating what you’re going to do. And that will not work for anyone in the long run.
Very well said I couldn’t agree more
I just need that bow.. I am shooting a bear legit and did great since I've entered 4 3d tournaments, and 8 club 3d events. Had my main string changed because of my form.. nightmare since the past 4 months.. this is the best bow for the bucks spendeded. We do not have any good thechs in my area and doing set up yourself is the was to go. That bow his perfect.. I have a max draw at 60 pounds with my bow because of my 27 28 inch draw. Tried it at 70 and it's barely as had to pull as 60 on my bow.. can't wait to be able to get some money to buy it. Great review man! Cheers from Québec Canada! 🎯👌👍👊❤️
Seems like another excellent bow from Bowtech!!! Maybe my next bow.
Solid review as always. I can attest to everything you mentioned about this bow! I chose it over Athens Vista, sr350, and Omnia. For me It was the draw cycle stability and ease of use that had me out the door with it. I'm definitely gonna run that minute to win it stall, keep up the solid work!
I finally ordered my new bow for the this year. And yup, you guessed it. It wad the ss34!! I can't wait for it to come in.
Hey like your channel. And I just purchased the ss34 bow tech. It is so smooth. Thank you for the detailed information you put out on this channel. Help out a lot. Thanks
I went bow shopping 2 days ago and there is a smoother bow. As nice as the SS34 is, the draw cycle on the Bowtech Carbon One is even better. Shot them back to back and definitely the Carbon One is superior.
Bowtech for the win lol
@@BackyardBows Yep, love at first draw. I put down a deposit and my new Carbon One should be here in 2 weeks.
Watched a ton of your videos and just realized I wasn’t subbed!!! Now I’m locked in and ready for more!
😂 half u noticed I need everyone I can get lol
Nice review and I love my SS 34! it's been a pleasure to shoot and I can't wait to hunt with it this fall. 😊
I like your videos, i consider your reviews very honest, i have a shoulder problem that keeps me away from archery after seeing how smooth this SS 34 is i will definitely give it a try thanks.
Also follow @archerystrong he is full of tips and advice on healing that shoulder so u can do what u love
Nice job Brandon, you have one of my favorite channels, I own a bowtech revolt and love it!
🙏
This is my favorite bow review channel. Chronically under subbed.
Great review.. touched on all the points.. awesome man thank you. I just got this very bow, love it.
Hi, great work, very nice reviews. Just one suggestion. It seems to me that the best way to compare the feel of different bows is to adjust their draw weights to shoot the same arrow at the same speed (with the same draw length, of course).
I actually love that suggestion 👌
Got the same bow buddy. Shot mathews for years , my first bowtech. After my first shot at my local archery shop i bought it. Had some serving separation which bowtech took care of , but this bow is sweet and smooth.
Curious what you favor about them over the binary cam Mathews?(assuming you had a triax or newer)
@@Range-X draw cycle
Thank you for these reviews! I've been stuck between Mathews Phase 4, the Revex, and SS34. I shot both Phase 4 and the Revex and wasn't too pleased with Phase 4, but loved shooting the Revex. Still need to try out the SS34, but these reviews are extremely helpful with the honest grading scale for someone looking to buy a new bow. Can't wait to try out the SS34, especially based on these reviews! Good luck this season👍
Let us know what u end up going with
@@BackyardBows Will do! Going to check them out tomorrow👍🏻
@@BackyardBows I’m going to go with the prime Revex 4, I have to agree bowtech SS34 one of the smoothest bows I’ve ever shot. The prime just feels better for me personally! Again thanks for the reviews!
@@mw_scoob great choice that was my top pic of the year
Really nice review again.. It might be nice to have like top 3 reviews at the end of the year and compare them with each other, kind of trophy.. I kind of liked also the Elite Omnia, so these 2 side by side would be great :))
Hope you get more viewers, since you have some contents rather than just swinging the the bow and tell it's good.
I just got my ss34 amd shot it today and shot about 50 arrows. And im already getting serving seperation at the cam. So I suggest that people who bought this bow get aftermarket strings. But I'm super happy with the bow overall.
Truth be told, for $1200+ you shouldn't have to drop another $100+ for better strings. Make Bowtech stand by their product and offer customers a free replacement to GAS.
@@positivenotekeyboardYeah, I'll never understand that. All that engineering into a bow and then put a garbage terminal part on it. Zebra on Mathews is a prime example. Trash
Nice review I shot the SS34 it was nice but then shot the Prime Revex 4 it was just a better fit for me just felt better.
Great info & review thank you very much for taking the time. Just ordered mine 2 weeks ago. 1 more week of waiting. What release & sight are you using. Thanks again 🤙🏻
Spothog wise guy w boa strap
@@BackyardBows what about sight ?
Great shooting bow, thanks for the review 🏹🎯
Great review! I absolutely love my SS34. I simply can’t put that bow down.
Very nice presentation!!
I would like to know now is the trigger you use ?
(it looks like you can easily adjust it with the washer it has!) Thanks in advance!
To ME, in retrospect this bow reminds me of the LIFT but adjustable.
It's riser is LONG to where the limbs are near parallel with little movement, BUT has almost NO reflex...and for me comes in 31.5"...
Two blowtechs limb cracked on me both reign7s, one only 6 weeks old never again!
Ya I think there was a bow or two that had some serious limb problems, I can’t guarantee you anything but I can say all of the recent bows have held up nicely
The draw is effortless tho frfr on the model I tried,. I don't have much BT experience but the solution ss of my buddies I was able to try was truly splendid. However I Don't like polymer limb pockets on a flagship bow and the deadlock screws could have a better alloy. In my experience the shinier the Allen screw the more easy it strips, not a metal expert just something I realized overtime
This is a highly touted bow that has one major flaw: after about 100 arrows shot, the cams eat into the strings. No dealer wants to talk about it, for obvious reasons. Get yourself an Athens Vista 35. Great hold at full draw, smooth draw cycle, easy to tune, great fit and finish, $100 less, no serving separation issues. Buy this and Bowtech's CS will ignore all of your gripes!!!
I’m not sure what your experience was, but mine is still firing 1500-2000 shots later, no separation, no rub of any kind, get a shop that will tune your bow properly, if you were getting strings damaged after 100 shots your cams had some major lean to them
Thanks for your prompt reply. I like your channel, but honesty comes first in my life. Congratulations! You are the exception, and not the rule! I know more about tuning a bow than most techs. And several others have come forth with the same gripe--all around the 100+ arrow mark.
My first Bowtech was the 'Boss' back in 2017. I know all about their products, the advancements in their tuning system, and cam modes. The SS34 doesn't have the beefier cam you yourself boasted of, like the Vista 35's RT-X cam. That's one theory on why the cams eat up the strings. The more vertical riser makes for an easier pull (like Mathews overpriced bows), but the geometry coupled with a sharp, thin cam eats into the edge of the strings. Cameron, I shouldn't have to replace the strings on a brand new bow after 100 shots!!! That makes no sense. Bowtech's customer service department is not responding to my emails because they want to keep quiet about this flaw--as do dealers--for obvious reasons. But they should set up a recall with customers who discover this. Buying GAS strings or other premium brands only "buys" one time. Eventually, they too will create separation issues.
Every year, bow manufacturers want to create a "grand slam" bow. This came close, but R&D dropped the ball. If they'd shot just a few of them at random, for say 500 shots or so, they'd have known more work was necessary.
@positivenotekeyboard again I hate that was your experience with any company and I agree with honestly and try to give it how i experience it, I can say I called Bowtech several times and can get ahold of someone from there pro shop without a problem, I agree if there is a flaw a company should get out ahead of it, no excuses on why a bow should be restrung after a 100 shots, also I’ll add I’m not getting paid for reviews and still purchasing many bows including Bowtech, if there was a problem with mine I wouldn’t have a problem saying it
@@BackyardBows Thanks for your assistance, and ethical concern. The other bow shops I've contacted either play stupid and refute their responsibility in reporting the truth, or try to brush me off with a passive "thanks" text. Either way, this is the story of the 'Emperor's New Clothes'. I bought into the hype shortly after it was introduced. I owned a 2022 Bowtech Revolt XL, and sold it to help fund this POS! Like many, my incentive was the smoother draw. The Revolt wasn't bad, but as an older shooter, I sought ease of pull without reducing poundage. So, yeah--I'm both disappointed and pissed, and I and many other SS34 purchasers have a reason to be!
I love Bear, but I’m thinking about switching to Bowtech, my hunting buddy swears by them.
😎🤘🏻🤘🏻
I haven’t looked but do you have any crossbow reviews??
I’m also interested in those but I know nothing about crossbows 😂😂
😎🤘🏻🤘🏻
Nice review! What is the link for stabilizer?
I was wondering would you be able to do a review on the Redline Torch sight??
Considering switching from a prime to bow tech what’s your take on that make the switch or stick with prime @backyard bows
Two of my favorite companies but drastically diff feels and mechanics, do you see yourself utilizing all the features Bowtech offers? Do you love the center grip feel? Really depends on the bowman
I have a QAD drop away installed on my SS34 and it's smacking the shelf. It's so loud I can here it when the bow gues off and it doesn't sound like your drop away is making any contact at all. Do you have any thoughts? Should I ask my bow shop to take care of it or does this just happen with some setups?
I would def have them adjust
Great review! Just stumbled across your channel while researching the SS 34. Now I’m a subscriber! I shoot a 26” draw length, could possible go to 26.5” draw. Would this be a good bow for me, since it it is 34” A to A? I know you had mentioned it’s a great bow for the 30”/31” draw length shooters. Thanks!
Teat out the cp30, we will drop review soon great shooter, better how angle for your draw length and higher speeds
Dude, it looks like you are gaining weight. I was able to drop my BMI from 25 to 23 in 6 months. Alternating days of pushups/pullups/ringpulls (to failure) with hill repeat bicycling. Intermittent fasting (skipping breakfast) and low carbs speeds up initial weight loss. Plank gymnastic crossed ring pulls are a good simulation of the archery pull, and my draw weight went up significantly. Resting BP and pulse rate are down.
Favorite comment this month
@@BackyardBows Best bow review of the year! This bow has everything.
where do you set the cams ,? starting postion , dead center ??? or where,,not sure ,
What size length stabilizers are you running
Im so torn between the Bowtech CP30 or the SS34. im a 27 inch draw they both seemed really smooth to me. do you think id loose speed going with the SS34 over the CP30 at a 27 inch draw ?
Really great review!! Subbed!
I would go with the cp30 because your draw length, would be a perf set up for that length
What about a 29" draw
@@johnsand8495 I’d go ss34
@@BackyardBows Thanks for your reply. LATELY i have been researching the PSE UNITE 32 would be my sweet spot. Have you been able to get your hands on one of those ? love to see a review in your style on that bow!
,buena presentación del disparador
I’m between the SS34 and a Fortis 33… 🤔
Man those are tough decisions, I ended up with the ss34 for opening day
What bows have you tested that hit 300 or above with a 500 grain arrow
Mathew’s safari, king cobra Apa
Good looking and simple bow vise, can you tell me the name/model? Great video, thanks

Nice job Brandon, ;-) As a new shooter here in Europe I need to be able to set everything myself!
How do I know I am buying the right arrow for my bowtech SS34 with 60 LBS drawweight and 27.5" draw length
Axcel Landslyde Plus Carbon Pro AVX-31
Hamskea Arrow Rest Compound Hybrid Hunter Pro MicroTune?
can you give me a good guideline what arrows to buy for 3D shooting?
I would suggest going to what ever manufacturer website and plug your specs into there arrow chart, example Easton arrows will ask you for your ibo speed, draw weight, draw length and will recommend spine for every arrow they sell, just plug in Easton arrow chart in Google for an example, your prolly around a 400 spine
@@BackyardBows It may be a stupid question but what is the ibo speed?
The problem is that I can't make the right choice from the choice of arrows is that most UA-cam videos are made by bow hunters, and this is not allowed by law with us!
So their choice is usually with a 70 to 80 lbs drawweight and I can't rely on that, can I.
And you won't find the 3d sport everywhere with us, so our horse pasture is my practice area!
@@BackyardBows On easton's website there is a pdf to download, the 301055-A-Arrow-Shaft-Selection-Hunting.
when I take the specs of my bow:
331 FPS ATA RATING
BOW POUNDAGE 58
HUNTING ARROW CUT LENGTH 27.5"
then I get 400-350 as a choice!
In the ARROW SHAFT SELECTOR TOOL:
YOUR SUGGESTED SPINE/SIZE RANGE target
475-400
YOUR SUGGESTED SPINE RANGE hunting arrows
400-350
So is it best to choose a 400 spine than the 500 spine arrows I'm practicing with now?
then my groups could become even closer I suspect
What stabs are you using on this sss34 ?
Quattro stabs
SS 34 is an amazing shooter for sure. One question - it is widely known that after just even 100 shots the cable serving starts to separate on the cam where it goes around that really tight radius. Are you seeing that on yours? Looks like a majority are having that issue on several of the most recent Bowtech bows (Solution SS, SS 34, Reckoning Gen 2, etc.). Thanks.
I’m not yet and we’re around 500 shots prolly, just set up for my brother to take to TAC in Utah and it’s still intact
@@BackyardBows Right on. Thank you for letting us know.
Any update on this? I’m supposed to pick mine up on Friday and just learned about the serving issues some have noted!
@@TAudisio if you need to get it restung with custom strings / cables but I would shoot a bunch first as mine are all still intact and shoot it daily
@@TAudisio On my SS34 that had a date of March 2023 on the box, the servings on the cables separated in less than 100 shots. My son's Reckoning Gen 2 36, same thing. My dealer talked to Bowtech and they sent out new strings, but they are the same garbage that came on the bow originally. Hopefully you get a set like Backyard Bows did and not what most are getting. In talking to a number of folks with SS34's I would say 9/10 have had the serving separate within less than 100 shots. I love a lot about the SS34 but Bowtech knows about this problem and continues to put those strings on - not good on their part and likely something I will consider when buying bows in the future.
What stabilizers are you running
Set of Quatros
The revolt xl is actually the smoothest bow they ever made. Yet they advertised it horribly.
All there bows are smoother than anything else on the market
You need a decibel board to keep track of the winner and the greatest loser of all time.
I need to transfer all the data on my phone over to a spread sheet, I need more time 😂 but your right I would like to look back and compare myself
Dude breathe when you shoot. You shake when your out of breath
