One of the most comprehensive and thorough set-up reviews on TH-cam. Excellent job.
Thanks for the compliment!
@@travisglassman Compliment was deserved. I have the same exact bow, color and made similar adjustments. Bow shoots great at 70-100 yards also.
@@livingadreamlife1428 great news!
Shot all the manufacturer flagship bows and purchased a Ventum 33. After two months of shooting, I have zero “buyer’s remorse”. The binary cam system is a game changer for Hoyt.
I agree completely!
Very comprehensive review! Makes me glad I put in the order for a 33 with my local dealer 😉
Thanks for the compliment!
Thanks for the comment
Also ordered a ventum 33 still waiting for it here in South Africa. Please do a follow up video on longer range shots that is not fast forwaded so that we can hear the bow. Nice video !!!! Looking forward to get mine everytime i see a video like this
Thanks for your comment.
The wait is worth it! Great bow.
Absolutely fantastic tuning viceo mate. SImple, to the point and concise. Subbd!
Thanks for the sub!
excellent and thorough video. really enjoyed watchign and learning the whole setup process in detail!
Thanks for the compliment!
Totally digging your intel you sharing. I’m still waiting for my local bow shop get the Ventum 33 and V3 31, so I can see which will come home with me. Keep up the legit videos
Your comment is very much appreciated!
I run a Conquest quiver on my BOWTECH REVOLT. It is a nice quiver. I shoot full metal jackets wt NAP HELLRAZOR fixed blade broadheads. Nice review.
Thanks 🙏
Really good review. Great information 👍
Thanks for your comment!
BBE TEK Hybrid 3 pin. I like using a movable sight to dial to longer distances. There are other good movable sights on the market as well. It’s strictly user preference.
Really nicely done vid, and I leaned a lot watching this. Thanks!!
Thank you!
Almost all manufacturers set their center shot 13/16ths from the riser over to the center of your arrow shaft. After that adjust for your torque.
👍🏻
Good review Travis. Looks like a killer.
Thank you very much, Mark!
Question … I have the same set up. On the rest everything is set to 0. I set an arrow on the string and look down , the tip is leaning out towards the left. But, it’s a rack driver. Help me understand plz
Things look different at full draw. The arrow path leaving the bow can be very much perfect and inline, even though it looks off at rest. As long as your broadheads are hitting with your field points at distance, you should be tuned up good.
CBE engage Hybrid. Love that sight
👍🏻
Makes me wanna get rid of my carbon ultra.. My shoulder hurts watching u draw it across your chest like that. Anyways great video.. 👍
Thanks for the comm!
Great video man. I have the same bow in black. Quick question, when you're aiming in at full draw, do you actually see the entire housing of your sight? On my bow and some others that I've seen on forums, the right 1/4 to 1/3 of the sight is blocked by the riser. Are you encountering this?
It all depends on how your cams are shimmed. I had to swap shims around to get my center shot where I wanted it. You may want to consider getting your cams spaced properly and then you should be able to move your sight away from your riser.
Awesome video!
Thanks for the compliment!
Hi Travis, to adjust your draw length, did you have to put it in the bow press??
No Sir. Simple rotate the modules on the cams
Very detailed video your a natural. How is the overall weight on that bow does it feel like a tank
Thanks for the compliment. The weight is about right for me. I prefer a little more weight for shooting in the wind. I just wouldn’t recommend adding a bunch of stabilizer weight. It’s not needed.
Man regarding the shimming, where do you get the "spacers" used? Highly doubt I'll be as lucky as you n just have to swap the order.
I'm considering purchasing a ventum pro 33 to have alongside my v3x 29. I have a press, draw board, scale everything I need basically at home, and live in a 3rd world shithole where the closest shop is 4h away and the dude working there SUCKS.
So tuning on my own is given.
But idk how to go about the shimming process really. When buying it off a website (you can purchase hunting bows online in europe, the manufacturers let u do that because it isn't as widespread here) they probably wont include it, at least the mathews didn't come with any tophats.
I don’t think you’ll have any issues on the Ventum Pro. They made slight modifications to the alignment of the cams and it mitigated most shimming. If you need shims, I’d recommend emailing Hoyt and explaining your situation. Best of luck!
How do you know whether you should shim the cams vs just moving the arrow rest left and right?
I always shoot for setting my center shot where the arrow is about 7/8" from the riser, so I get the desired vane clearance. If you have to move the rest drastically left or right in order to obtain a good center shot tune, you will need to shim the cams in order to get your arrow back to that 7/8" from the riser. Sometimes swapping the shims will do the trick if it's moving them in the right direction. Otherwise a pro shop will need to provide you the correct shims to get things in line.
Thanks for the detailed info, Travis. Im struggling with my Ventum 33, setup by a local shop. I think I have two problems. At full draw, I have to slightly rotate the riser clockwise (righthanded bow) in order to "square" the upper cam with the arrow. Is that expected? Also...the center of my arrow is exactly 5/8" off the riser. With the odd vane up, the lower right vane is contacting the cable. I have a drop-away rest so i rotated the nock to an odd vane out which improved it a little...but I'm still not getting consistent flight. I may be getting slight contact in a couple other places, it's hard to tell. I think that if the cam shims were swapped to move the cams away from the riser, both problems would be solved. The shop says it's me, lol....and maybe it is...but I'd like your take. It shoots perfectly through paper, lol....and that seems to be the only thing my shop cares about. Look...it still shoots great...but the grouping just isn't what I'd expect.
I would recommend shimmiing the cams to the left slightly. That will get your arrow away from the riser slightly. Then at that point, I would recommend paper tuning and then moving to a bare shaft tune to get things shooting correctly.
Did you stick with the shorter stabilizer setup in the lower hole like you have here?
Yes. I really like how the bow balances like that
Just bought a 30
👍🏻
I see some videos that says ventum 33 is faster than ventum 30. Is that true? Or what modules are using?
If you have Mod 2 at 29” DL, then it is faster. Max out the mods in your set up, if possible.
Haven’t tested to compare.
What's everyone's favorite rest on the ventum?
Hoyt Ultra Rest Integrate
@@travisglassman thanks! I'll try one. Will have everything but the dang bow here in a minute! Ordered it over a month and a half ago...still no word from hoyt on the shops next shipment!!!🤬.
I have one on order...please let us know what stabilizer set up you end up with
I’m running the stock weight up front and a 6” Fuse Torch stab on the back.
@@travisglassman And have not changed it? I am really curious to see how that works for me...thanks
@@davidbuurma8198 nope. It feels great to me.
That would’ve been cool if you Robin Hooded your arrow with the bare shaft. Haha
Lol it would have been cool but costly.
Not to mention that hoyts "carbon" bow weighs as much or more than aluminum bows
Mathews Carbon bows are the same. Seems they’ve reach a minimum weight level for stability.
Yeah, well...when dudes buy 3 pound bows...they add 3 plus pounds of weight to get it to shoot good anyway. Weight is your friend when it's time to hit what your shooting at
👍🏻
are you able to see your whole scope ring? Mines obstructed by the riser and it sdriving me nuts
Yes. I’d say you need to move your rest away from your riser or shim cams away from riser to get the proper sight picture. Are you shooting a bullet hole through paper? If so, what’s the measurement from the riser to the center of the arrow?
@@travisglassman I just got the bow yesterday. I threw my fast edddie and Hamskea on. I wish I got the arrow rest the hamskea is a tight fit
I just have been shooting it in my garage so its far from tuned.
im waiting for the shim tool
What press is that?
A buddy made that for me. Custom built.
Hey buddy, would you mind sharing your centrrshot with me .. I'm having trouble getting mine dialed in. . Is appreciate it
Mine is sitting at 13/16” from riser with the large shims on the left of the cams.
@@travisglassman thanks buddy.. I just set my trinity rest-inside the crotch at 13/16. Then I pulled a tiny bit on string to see what I need for fletch clearance. And I think all i need is shim swap. I'm gonna put the bigger spacer on inside. Switch it.. Hope that works. The worst part is all 4 of my brand new bows all need basically this clearance fixed on them.
@@travisglassman thanks buddy!💙 my Ventum33 is shooting bullets now thru pap.. I did 13/16 exact like you said. And now I absolutely love this bow.. I can't imagine the new pro being much smoother.? Thank you for your help
Hey mate is this colour buckskin or wilderness
Buck skin.
Wouldn't you want to move your rest towards your bareshaft?
You want to move the rest the direction the point of the bare shaft needs to go. If the bare shaft is wandering left, you would want to move the rest to the right so the tip stays behind the string during launch.
