Good video! Ive got a 27” draw & cannot wait to get the exalt 35! This bow has my attention. Currently shooting a phase 4 29” and have hated it ever since I purchased it. I definitely prefer a longer bow. I’ve hunted with 33-37” bows before & the length doesn’t pose a problem for me. If I can use my recurves out of my stands & saddles I can handle a 35” bow. I remember I had a XLR one time, I think it was 37” & I’ve never since shot a bow as good as that one. I’m hoping the exalt is gonna be like a newer version of that.
@@Gaining_Elevation I’m excited to see how every other company will respond to the Exalt and Dartons new Sequel 35! The more I shoot, the more I learn toward the longer bows. I would love to get one and put it through its paces in the woods.
I really like my pse fortis 33 e2. Haven't shot a Mathews. John Dudley went to pse 5 years ago knowing he was going to help their brand prepare to be sold. Personal opinion and some interviews I've seen.
Elite Envision...Jon has stated in multiple podcasts his reasoning for the move back to Hoyt, he wanted to end his career with his friends. The president is a good friend and tournament buddy from his early days as well as a couple others. PSE signed a 5 year with him in order to get the company ready to be saleable, by designing new products that would place them in a good position in the market. Hoyt and PSE the largest target offerings, Mathews has 2 (new) target bow and loads of advertising dollars for shooters. Hoyt dominates world markets especially in target.
Thank you for the videos. I wonder how the exalt’s draw cycle compares to the verdict or ethos? I am looking at the exalt for an indoor and 3d bow. I am also wondering how it compares to the reckoning 36.
@@John-cz3hp I appreciate the support! I can’t speak on the Reckoning or Verdict, but the Exalt is even smoother than the Ethos. I’m a fan of the Ethos as a platform and if it had all the technology that is in the Exalt, I would likely be shooting one right now. The Exalt would be perfect for both indoor and 3d.
I really like Elite bows as a brand, I really want to shoot the Exalt 35 to me they are some of the most stable bows I have shot and they have a lot of adjustment to make them feel like I want. To me that’s the one of the worst thing about Mathews bows is they are just not as adjustable as Elite or Hoyt now.
@@jamestipton9762 I would say the lack of tuning is a big issue for Mathews but Hoyt is no better. They both share top hat/spacers at the cam and yoke tuning, by far the worst in their class. Elite and Bowtech have tuning down to a science and PSE bows are pretty easy to tune as long as you have a press. Elite is definitely the most target minded bow manufacturer and they probably make the most forgiving and accurate flagship bows on the market.
@@joelculpepperoutdoors4262 I agree, Bowtechs are really adjustable too but I had a couple of them and for me they just weren’t as stable for me but they were pretty fast. Thank you for making Great videos I really enjoy them .
@@stephenswansonjr1377 My main reason is they went back in their contracts with Kyle Douglas and Tim Gillingham. I like their SS34 and the Solution line but I don’t really care for the Core bows they are making.
@@MarkCampbell-c7z I would never say there is anything wrong with hunting with a 35. I’m 5’11” and my arms are just long enough to make the cam on a 33 hover just an inch or two above the ground. A 35 would certainly scrape the ground. I am considering getting one of the Mule stabilizer attachments to try and if that works, I could see myself hunting with a 35.

@@c.r.rg9529 Interesting. Seems a little shady to me but that is the way it works sometimes.
One word...... Money $$$
@@JordanAmon-vv1qb You know Hoyt had to through him a big check!!!😂

@@the_sharp_carpenter It makes sense that PSE would hire him to increase value to become more sellable. Thanks for the insight!

He made a very good decision go team Hoyt
@@thepointoutdoors I completely agree!
Why dont you like bowtech? Just curious.

There is no problem hunting with a 35 especially as big as you are it shouldn't be a thing
