It is interesting how one of the slowest rated bow was the fastest in real life. Mass weight and speed seems to be two things some companies habitually lie about.
FYI 3dB is a doubling of perceived sound, but great video. Tough comparison to ibo when you are using 400g arrow and 29” draw, but good for you for using a standard test spec.
Will be stocking Hoyt once again in our shop. I will be shooting the Rx7 Ultra 34. Pretty sure in the new ORGIN camo. Yowsa I normally shoot around 60#. I did shoot the Rx7 at about 72#. Very very nice draw at that added weight.
Finally, i have been waiting for a review like this. Seems like all the big bow manufacturers are leaning towards the carbon market these days. I wonder if Mathews will test the carbon waters. I'm glad to see Bowtech and Elite get into the game with 2 verry solid first editions of flagship carbons, only to get better as time goes on. This being said, I still believe that Hoyt is the leader of the pack. However, they will need to up their game on the tune ability of their bows, or they will fall behind.
@Bruce hillbilly Barthalow I know they had the carbon icon and zion. However, I didn't know they attempted a flagship carbon bow. They definitely hit it out of the park with the one, only to get better, I assume.
I’m a big time Hoyt fan but I’m going to go with elite for my next bow with the optima or the Era, sorry Hoyt but I have to lookout for my best interest
I’ve got a newb question. When they say a bow is a “right hand” bow, does that mean it’s held with the right hand or is it drawn with the right hand? Thanks
It should be noted that bowtech had the carbon knight and overdrive 2013-14.for whatever reason they forgot or wanted to forget.in a review done by Haxen hunt,he shot the carbon one.he said come on bowtech and walked away from finishing the review. Odd isn't it?
Rx7 Ultra is the Best bow. Which is why Hoyt Didnr need to change a thing on ther best bow ever. I love it . Super dead and light. Look amaz. All blackout is gangster. I like the Bowtech also.
Is there a reason that the PSE Levitate wasn't part of this? There is a 2.0 version for 2023, so it seems a bit off to exclude it while using the new version of the RX7
Bow weight does not stabilise. But if i put the difference between a carbon and alloy bow at the front or the back, have the a more stable bow or the same stable bow even lighter🤘
Bowtechs letoff is adjustable on the letoff. It changes from performance to comfort, and there's aftermarket cable stop pegs that you can adjust your holding weight with.
all these companies just lie about there mass weights and ibo speeds but it is what it is..i have the elite era and i can say its just a shooting machine..my friend bought the bowtech carbon and after shooting my elite he sold it and took a beating and got the elite era as well which we are still setting up..elite is heads and shoulders above any bow company in micro adjustability which the others lack..bowtech made a huge mistake with a carbon bow so heavy and the sales will be nothing like they expect imo..
And it absolutely makes no sense… why would you spend more money on a carbon bow that weighs more than its aluminum counterpart? Has more hand shock than most other aluminum bows… like come on now, please don’t say it’s for the warmth?! But hey I guess blow your money on it if you want lol
Why is nobody looking att winwin black shadow d, its 36". Winwin are one off the best brands in recurve, but nobody makes rewievs on their compounds, why?
Because they aren’t American at all. The PSE is a true American carbon bow. All these bows are levels ahead of win & win. They should stick to recurve.
@@Christian.Jensen I’m not saying we shouldn’t have reviews. I’m saying they aren’t on par with US bows. Yes I also think people should by American. 🇺🇸
PSE MACH 34 all day. Made in the USA. the lightest bow by far, forgiving platform. Great speeds. Sexy. Etc
Honorable mention Hoyt RX7
Loving the ERA! Great review.
It is interesting how one of the slowest rated bow was the fastest in real life. Mass weight and speed seems to be two things some companies habitually lie about.
Pse is the only one of the bunch fully made in the USA. Definitely worth mentioning!!
Pretty sure the Elite is too. In Henrietta NY.
Great review, loaded with info and very little bias. Well done 👍🏼
except draw length
@@Briansgate 🤷🏼♂️??

I appreciate the honest review!

Actually this is bowtech's second attempt.the first failed for whatever reason.

Mathews sells the most units. No need to go carbon unless they don't out sell their opps

Nice comparisons .
I’ve got a newb question. When they say a bow is a “right hand” bow, does that mean it’s held with the right hand or is it drawn with the right hand? Thanks
A right hand bow is held with the left hand and drawn with the right. A left would obviously be the opposite of that

The bow tech looks and shoots really nice

The rx7 is the 2023 carbon as well the levitate ain’t
Plus bowtechs letoff changes when you go to performance setting
Why not show the RX7 ultra? Your saying the PSE is only 34” ata bow, and that’s not the case.
Because it’s a 2022 bow
@@chetmanley2883 so is the RX7? They’re made the same year
@@itzwade yeah not sure the reasoning behind including a 22 bow in a show 23 comparison
The Levitate has a 2023 option coming as well. Which is a great mid range ata option. His video, his choice. Glad he made it!
@@chetmanley2883 there best sellers. So they didn't want to change a thing yet

P S E has been holding the fastest title for awhile.

Hoyt shouldn’t even be in the conversation.

Can I shoot some bows if I come to Nashville and see y'all? Lol
Lol, sorry we do not have any bows with us at the show. Mainly turkey stuff.
@@MikesArchery aww man. Well hopefully I get by to check y'all out
@@MikesArchery any suggestions on places to eat, watering holes, hangouts?
Bowtech all the way
Agreed. Looks the best and shoots really great

@@paytenblevins3401has less shock than aluminum in my opinion. the weight makes it more stable
Carbon bows are ridiculous. I’ll stay with aluminum bear :) it’s affordable and shoots great for 75% less
Haha and so are women! Lol might as well shoot a RX7 Ultra ✌❤🏁

@@hunteradamson5024 how would you know? Seen any rewievs?
Because I can look at a win win and know in 2 seconds it’s not on the level of the top American made bows.
@@hunteradamson5024 and yet there are rewievs on chinese bows like sanlida? Cut the patriotic crap.
