Just have to say my VXR is an absolute savage and my bank account is opting with ignorance is bliss. Love to see these videos because believe it or not it makes me sleep better at night knowing I can wait 2 years and grab a lift when they’re used for sale. Both are beautiful bows

I would like to thanks Chris for being real with his shots. Honestly makes me feel better about my 60 yard groups. People only post their best work.

I have been shooting the Traverse for four years and have always felt it to be stable and comfortable (which it is), but, I went in to try out a lift 33 the other day and it is without doubt superior in just about every way. I don't really get excited about integrate stuff but the draw was easier at same poundage and although I didnt use a chrono it is said to be faster, and the light weight is striking, when i was handed the bow, i was expecting more weight and my hand shot up as i gripped it, lucky it was a high ceiling otherwise i wouldve put the top cam through the roof.

I’m new to compound. I have a TRX from 2019. I’m pretty pleased with it… got it with a shibuya sight and some good stabilisers. It’ll do me well until my technique is good enough for new shiny.

For reference, Chris shot a 144 in the same test (50m) with a VXR 28 4 years ago. That bow is still a top shooter vs anything.

Still hunting with VXR. I've shot each Mathews bow yearly since the VXR was released and have yet to shoot one that makes me want to put it on the shelf (including the Lift).

I’m not a pro shooter by any chance but I do shoot pretty often and last year I shot my bow(halon 32) side by side with a new phase 4 at a pro shop and was not impressed. Like I said I’m no pro shooter but the only thing I could feel different between my bow and the phase was the grip angle. Just sharing my experience.

[Bowsonthebrain]

Only problem with these old verse new tests are that the shooter is has only been shooting the new bow and even if the old can shoot just as good as new, chances are the test won’t reflect that because the shooter isn’t as comfortable with the old bow. Maybe spend some equal practice time with both bows then try it again

Am I the only one that can’t hear anything?

I think my favorite thing about your channel is that you never hide when things don’t go well when you shoot. Thank you for showing the awesome and the not so awesome!

For sure- took a gamble and found a new v3 27 on eBay- 700 bare bow. Just waiting on it to come in and get her set up, I just couldn’t bring myself to spend 1200 plus- on a bare bow.

Any of the Mathews flagship bows of the past 3-4 years are very solid: VXR, V3, V3X, and Phase 4. Since bows depreciate like new cars, going used is a good option too. Seeing the Phase 4 go for around $800-900 used bare bow.

That vxr set up correctly will shoot right with the lift! Put that vxr in Levi Morgan's hand and let's do this competition again! 😂 good content, I like the fact your saying it's ok to buy a older model bow! VXR, V3, V3X, Phase 4, Lift...all will shoot better than most shooters can make them shoot!

Hey Chris, your video was uploaded without audio 🥺🥺

[Muskiehunter]

I love the look of the lift riser... I just wish they didnt do this 8 limb business. There is no need for it and everyone else seems to be doing just find with 4 limbs. Its just more points of potential failure and I honestly question if this is the era we will look back on as the "8 limb" era, and in a couple years they go back to standard split limbs.

[ChadR]

I like the video but I think to make them fair you should set the bows up exactly the same. With all the same attachments and time put into them.

[Tullminator]

He seems so happy to be making these videos! The enthusiasm is through the roof!

[BowhuntingSwede]

Still got the Vertix and VXR. Absolutely love em

[quotablequestion]

I have the same rest on my VXR and I get flyers often. I should probably get a whisker for it instead lol

[quotablequestion]

That’s my bow, the VXR 31.5! Love the video and the bow, will be interested to see the results.
