Mike provides, perhaps, the most thorough, honest and factual Bow reviews on YT. When he gives an opinion, it’s thoughtful. I’ve also found his opinions to be accurate in the field. In a nutshell, he says when manufacturer’s are doing it right and when they’re doing it wrong. In turn, that saves me both time and money. As a consumer, I can’t ask for more than that.

This is the review I have been waiting for, due to such an honest review from from last years flagship bow. Just waiting for Hoyt’s answer to the new Matthew’s V3X in the same price range and your review!!!

good for you standing your ground on your opinion, kudos...keep up the good content

I have this model, it is my second bow ever. I held out for 3 years shooting a PSE Uprising. I walked into the shop to shoot everything wanting to buy a VXR but KNOWING I was buying a Bowtech Solution. I put 2 dozen arrows through every top tier bow from everyone, even the carbon bows for 2022. I kept coming back to this V3X 29, the Solution and the EVO EVL. I liked the thickness of the Solution riser and feel of the grip, the EVO EVL was noticeably louder and the grip was a weird feel as well. The V3X was quieter then everything and completely dead in the hand with no stabilizers. All bows were shot with a whisker biscuit in the shop using my own release. Carried over my sight and my rest from my PSE and gave it to someone to get them into archery( it worked) I would like to buy the 33 as well, or get the Solution as it would make a great 3D bow, but this 29 is a perfect do it all bow for my 5'9" 27.5 draw frame. I pack it everywhere and fully kitted with front and rear bars and balanced out weights for shooting comps I am under 9 lbs. Hamskea Trinity, Trophy ridge H5 React, Tight Spot 5 shooting VAP RIP Elites and Easton Axis with Muzzy Trocar 125gr and Magnus Stinger Buzzcut 150gr. I have the Mathews stabilizers, but I can honestly say I think the Bee Stinger MicroHex are the best value bar on the market and why I switched over to them. Though the Mathews bars are amazing, they are pricey so if you can get them at a discount or especially used, get them. I am upgrading to the Dialed Archer Arxos this year to finish the bow off. possibly switching to the Mathews removable quiver as well as it is a bit more rigid and less vibration out of it.

Just getting started into archery. Father in law gave me his 2016 PSE Supra for me to train with and get better at it. Got it adjusted to my draw length and been enjoying it so much and been surrounding myself around the local Archery shops. I was able to shoot the demo V3X 29 and it is such an impressive bow. Much different draw cycle from my PSE, but felt like something I could easily get used to if I had more time with it. However I promised myself to keep training till I treat myself to a bow of that caliber. Awesome review! 🤙🏽

I honestly miss some of solocams lol they were pretty smooth

I think it's cool that they are trying to engineer easier ways to fix the bow without shop time or bench.

Love the reviews. Thanks for saying the good and the bad about the bows you review.

Unless something has changed the draw is more than likely 28.5" @ 28" setting.

Great review. Interesting to hear comparison with V3 27.

Mike I busted on you last time because you said you needed a bow press to change the draw modules. But I agreed that the V3 27 was a tough draw cycle BUT I was at 29.5” at 80%. My buddy has it at 27” at 85% and it made all the difference- really smoothed out the draw cycle. Glad they are 29 & 33 this year though. Hope you keep up the reviews

Switched from the 27 to the 29 because of the draw cycle and string angle. I loved the 27 and killed 6 deer with it but 29 is so smooth

What did it shoot at 350, 450, and 500?

First like 💪💪

having a string to nose issue.. the string is about half an inch in front of my nose and I can't seem to get my nose to touch the string... im guessing I need to shorten my draw length??

Since when do bows only pick up 3/5fps for an extra inch of draw length

hey Mike , may I ask a question ？can I tune this Mathews with SAS only ？do I still need bowpress to tune the bow when I put new string and cables on it ？

This channel needs a review by Snacks

Can I get your opinion on a v3x 29 vs an Evo xf 30 with evolve cam? Which bow would you say has a smoother draw cycle, which one seems more stable and forgiving. Thanks

Good honest review except I don’t think you understand what gives stability when shooting. It’s a 29 ata bow but it’s riser (which gives you the stability when shooting) is long! ATA measurement isn’t the best measurement for the purpose of the bow, a riser length is. This bow will shoot like most companies 32 inch ata.

How does the valley compare to the VXR28?

Keeping bows made in the US is the only option. The moment manufacturing moves to China, I’m out. Done.

The mods are the same as the V3

if you’re concerned about a few ounces of weight maybe you should be playing chess
