I literally crying thinking of Tim having Brandon Mcdonald tattooed from ear to chin looking like Post Malone. Rule number one is he has to keep that one side shaved to show off the art work and his love for Brandon❤

Great vid, Brandon. "Baby Drunk" is a real thing.... Congrats on the little one. Mathews Lift is a great bow. The bow holds unbelievably. A target style bow on a hunting platform. And, I was never a Mathews guy - Hoyt and Prime were my preferred bow, but I could not argue when I shot the 29.5. If I was taller, I would have gone with the 33, but the 29.5 feels like a 31 or even a 32. Thanks for vid!

Let’s go Brandon!😂 Tim better keep the videos coming. I have been shooting a Halon 32 since 2017 and I don’t use any stabilizers. It’s so accurate now I just don’t want to add them and it’s perfectly balanced with the quiver permanently mounted. I am getting a bow this year and it will either be the Lift, for the Core SR.

We have a Mathews LIFT 33 in for long term testing and this made me curious to weigh the setup. Raptor Peep, Ultraview UV Slider, Hamskea Epsilon, 15" Mathews Target front bar with 2oz., Mathews Bridgelock back bar mount, 10" Mathews Hunting back bar with 5oz., Shot sense and side plates installed, EXO limb legs installed: we came in at 7.10 lbs. Considering this 33" ATA bow has a riser length of 33.5", that weight is unreal! Love this video - keep up the great work. Subbed!

@@brandonmcdonald6121 agreed - lighter "center of mass" bows + stabilizers will make bows easier to handle and more stable. We have a bow in our hands right now with nearly identical risers and ATA specs to the LIFT...and it is even lighter!

Regarding stability, I haven't looked into measurements that closely...but I wouldn't be surprised if the riser on the lift 33 is longer than the RX* ultra, despite being 1.5 inches shorter ATA. I'm still deciding what sight to put on my lift. One day I think I'm going to get an HHA, the next day its Black Gold, then Dialed, then UV. All these decisions!

Mathews and a lot of bow techs say you shouldn't press a beyond parallel limb bow like a Mathews in a regular press. Of course, there are special adapters for the Last Chance presses, but they're $300. I have never had an issue pressing a modern Mathews or similar bow in a regular Last Chance bow press. Make sure everything is lined up go slow.

Whatever matches the scope housing you are using and the position of the scope if it’s on a dovetail. The further out the scope is from the riser the smaller the peep is going to be. If you have light shining around the outside of your housing through your peep, your mind is about to be blown at how much more accurate you are going to be with the correct size peep.

short draw 27.5 75lbs which better 29.5 or 33 for +50yd 3d shooting??
@ApexArchery
@ApexArchery 5 ай бұрын
The answer to that may come down to general bow fit. How tall are you, and do you prefer a larger string angle at full draw? If you are spending a good deal of time shooting further distances and 3D, it is going to be hard to argue with the stability of the larger riser of the 33. Then again, you might find a really good fit with the 29.5 given your draw length (keep in mind, the LIFT 29.5 has a riser that is as long as many 33 ATA hunting bows anyway!). I would suggest that you try to demo each one, and have the shop really help you identify your peep height for ~40 yards and determine which feels best when holding at full draw 😄

Apex ain’t wrong. If I could shoot the 29.5 I would because the more compact size would be nice for blinds and trees. But, 98% of what I do is have fun in the yard. 33 is great.

Whoever gets the 50k will be Master Po, he who does not shall of course be Grasshopper. Some kind of dramatic scene of one of you lording your supremacy and forcing the other to pick up a burning pot with your wrists that has some kind of relative semblance making the mark.
