Thanks so much. I'm glad to hear it helped. God bless you.

Great, glad you liked it. God bless you.

Thanks so much Gary! There are several other videos up in this series already if you haven't already seen them. God bless you.

Thanks, David. It really makes me happy when people appreciate the effort that goes into these. God bless you.

You are welcome. I try. God bless you.

I would love a good review like this for the Martin Archery lineup

@@voxpopuli905 I have tried for years to get to do one but they never respond to my calls and emails asking them to help me find a way to review their bows. Maybe they will listen to you if you ask them to get their bows in my hands (that is, unless they don't want an unbiased third-party review).

Sean's Outdoor Adventures am actually surprised to here that. There was a time in early 2000s that Martin was among the top 5 best bows in terms of performance fit and finish and technology. They been around a very long time, and in around 2008 they suffered financially like so many companies. But they’ve held on and are still here. I can’t even imagine why they wouldn’t be looking for any opportunity to get their brand out there and be seen. I could try that. I could email them and tell them I was considering buying a Martin bow. And I’m not seeing a lot of reviews and especially not from the content creators that we know or believe in.

In the end, they dropped the ball and didn't follow through. It was the same thing the past two years. I reached out, they gave me a guys number to call, I called him and he asked how he could help. I then told him what I was looking to do and then he never responded after that... Oh well.

Great, thanks for watching! God bless you.

Thanks. I hope to get up there for a hunt some time in the next few years.

These were 65 pound limb bows, he didn't carry 70 pound.

I know. Just was hoping to see this bow's real IBO. I'm buying one today. I'm just one of those speed chasers for the last 20 years. I hope the IBO is close to the manufacturers specs. It wsn't meant as an insult. My buddy has one and I shot it but his s at 60#. It's a really nice shooting and fast bow. @@seansoutdoors

well after reading the comments i guess i just have to wait, seems like your planning on doing both. sweet! can't wait.

Yeah, the Prime and Elite reviews are coming, only, they only had the Primte Centergy where I tested them out, so I didn't get to shoot the Ion this year. Although, I can tell you that I liked the Elite over the prime overall, but, the Prime advantage is that they give you extra sets of strings and cables every two years, which in some cases is over a $100 value.

Thank you so much!

Thanks, Jim. I have come up with an idea for next year to try to help incorporate something along those lines. Thanks for watching and I hope you will tune in to next year's reviews too. God bless you

Cool. He called me years ago regarding the Xpedition tuning video I did. God bless ya

The release is the Fletcher Outsider release. Here is a review I did on it. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bMmCnNiqsKu9YYk.html God bless you and thanks for watching.

Thank you!!! I appreciate it. God bless you.

Thanks, Brooke. Xcursion 6 is a sweet bow. Very smooth and very fast. It is easier to draw than the Reign 6 when the Reign 6 is on the performance setting, and the Xcursion 6 is close in speed. I'd put the Xcursion 6 and Reign 6 a notch above the Hoyt. The Hoyt turbo has a much rougher draw cycle than the Xcursion and the Hoyt is slower with a little more hand shock. That's my thoughts anyway. God bless you.

No, because I still shot at 5 grains per pound. I'm not sure what some manufacturers do to get the numbers they do, but very often they are inflated to what a regular bow will actually do. This seems to be somewhat common among manufacturers in order to compete from a marketing standpoint. That's why you need to verify their claims. Thanks for watching and God bless you.

Yeah, they are still so young that they just don't have much reach. I contacted them asking if they would help me review their bows and they didn't even respond. It is a shame when companies don't even respond to people when they contact them. Xpedition was the only company that went out of their way to help me review their bows. All the rest, Bear, New Breed, Obsession, APA, all of them didn't do anything. The only one of them that even responded to my attempted contact was Obsession but then they chose to not help me review their bows.

Sean's Outdoor Adventures oh that's weird. everybody talks about how great there customer service is. always go out of there way to help you. like when I was dumb dropped my bow from my treestand and mess up a cam. then made sure I didn't need anything else for my bow. expressed shipped it for free. No other company in my experience would give away whole cams systems. sorry they didn't respond to you. I'll tell Pan she need to return your phone calls lol

love your review. but where about do you live in Pennsylvania??

I guess it is the nature of my call that they just avoid me or ignore me. I call them up and leave messages and also send emails asking if they would work with me to include them in my compound bow review series I do every year, and like I said, the only response I have ever gotten was from Obsession. The woman who answered my call had passed my number on to some guy, he called me and I explained what I wanted to do and he said he would work with me and then would not answer any of my calls after that day and wouldn't respond to any of my emails. It was ridiculous, and the guy did the same thing to me two years in a row.

I already posted that video.. Click here to watch it kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fN1igNqj1dqRn4k.html

My apologies. I'm behind on your videos, ill be getting caught up. Just watched your Bowtech review. I'm looking to get in a new bow this month. My Bowtech 360 has been an amazing bow for me, but I think its time to get a newer one. Its between the Xcursion 6 and Reign. Thank you for taking the time to do this for all of us. Will send you Facebook message to discus a way to donate to help with some funding.

Both are awesome bows. I just picked up the Denali, but I was totally torn if I should get the Xcersion 7 since I'm 31" draw. The Xcersion 7 was 2 fps faster than the Denali, but I went into it thinking I wanted to longest ATA bow I could get, so ended up just going with the Denali. If BowTech had offered me the same irresistable deal that Xpedition did, then I would have reallly been torn. However, if I was a shorter draw, I personally might have sided with the Reign simply because that cam shift technology is a notch above. I don't think you could go wrong with either bow, as they both are at the top of my list from the testing. Enjoy it and God bless.

That would be nice, but it currently isn't looking good. I've emailed them, and tried to contact them, and I have even had fans write to me and say that they wrote to them asking them to help me get their bows to review, and so far there has been no response.

It's the Fletcher Outsider release

Thanks for the reply Sean! I'm tall, 6'3" so I like a longer ATA also. I tried the Hoyt 34 Carbon Defiant and really shot it well, but would also like to try the Xpedition Denali and a couple of the Prime bows!

The Xcursion 6 doesn't come in my draw length. If it did then I definitely might have considered it. However, I shot my Denali through the Chronograph with a 5 grain per pound arrow and I am shooting 342 feet per second with my 31 inch draw.

You are welcome. Good luck with it!

I actually like Xpedition the best out of the bows you asked about. It is the easiest bow to tune to perfection out of all the bows I have used. As far as benefit for heavier limbs, that comes into play when hunting because you typically want to use an arrow that weighs around 425 or 450 grains. A 60 pound bow will have more pin gap shooting a 450 grain arrow than will a 70 pound bow shooting the same weight arrow. However, you don't want to pull more weight than you can do so and hold the bow steady while at full draw.

I don't have an issue with pulling a 70lb bow, the let off on all new bows that I have drawn back is way less than the (approximate) 30lbs of my martin. That 60 lb is easy..... i could do 80.. but I am just wondering what the benefit was. A 70 should be just great. Really compared to that old martin everything is smooth and quiet and light...... thanks for the input!

Those cable guides do make me wonder though. The ones with wheels seem like they would be less prone to wear.

Yes, that is the one thing I don't like about Xpedition. I wish they would change it, but if you use the cable lube they recommend there doesn't seem to be a problem.

It is odd though, many places I've read of other people's Xpeditions are usually getting speeds that actually exceed ibo or at the very least getting close to it. Oh well. Fantastic bow regardless. Ill have to chrono mine sometime and see. Thanks for the vids!

Yeah. The Xpedition are really nice and smooth bows. They also are among the fastest, but their advertised numbers do seem overly inflated. This is common among some brands but other brands are closer to their projected speeds.

I don't know what to say to that. An Rep I talked to said he noticed that the speed tests he had done had also come in way low compared to what was advertised.

I haven't used it, but it looks like a nice sight. The only drawback in some instances with a single pin sight is the possible hunting situation where you won't have a chance to move it to the exact distance in time to make your shot. Some people set it at about 25 yards and aim a little low if the deer is 20 or less yards, and slightly high if it is closer to 30 or 32 yards away. You will just have to think about those types of situations where that could happen.

Sure thing. God bless you.

Nice bow!

Thanks, I look forward to that video God bless you Brother!

Here is a review I made on the Diamond SB1 which wouldn't be a bad option. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sNeFqdaQ08qceqc.html

Thanks, and God bless you too!

They make broadheads specific for turkey, such as those that will actually cut the head off, but I think even something like a two blade rage will work well too.

Yeah, a lot of Hoyt shooters are definitely happy with them.

Sorry to hear that, Brian. Hope this year goes better for you. God bless you.

No, that would cause a lot of friction and cause the cables to break
