Can’t wait to see the video of the water buffalo hunt

Guy on AT had complete pass through on a water buffalo with the XV’s n fixed head.

The garmin works off radar waves rather than light gates like the old one, the waves come through the back plate like an invisible flashlight and, whilst its more like a flashlight with throw rather than like a pinpoint laser beam, having the projectile pass through the centre of the beam will help it to pick up the arrow. Because the beam is projected out the back of the device it needs space to "see" the arrow in flight in order to calculate how fast its moving so having it just off to the side or under where youre shooting with a decent space before the target will help it get the best detection. Most of the firearms guys Ive seen using it have it a meter or 2 off to the side pointed at the target so that it doesnt get caught by the muzzle blast.

Definitely would give an advantage to antelope hunting. Would love to see you take this on an antelope hunt.

I have best results with around 10 to 15 yards between my Garmin and the target. The bow doesn’t actually have to be close for it to function. I have shot over mine with the Garmin at 50 yards and target at 60. It is useful to know my bow speed and KE at different distances. I was thinking of making a video on it , just haven’t had the time. Great video Chris! Love my LIFT and my Garmin!

This was such a good idea for some great content! 😝

I didn’t know about the negative sight tapes from UV! So glad to hear that, I’ll be ordering.

Made Saturday morning better

I sit mine on the tailgate of my truck and point it at a target at 20 yards and shoot from beside it. Reads the same as my old shoot through one. Also use it for checking speeds for my 22lr and 6mm dasher competition rifles. Works great because so small to pack to the range.

Ok n now that I was finally able to get to the end Dan, I appreciate it. I will watch your video here in a minute for the phase four one. I'm hoping I can try and win the phase four. Like I said, I'd be happy with anything or nothing. I'm happy with you just giving us what you give us. I've learned a lot from you. Thank you Dan

Cool to see talented athletes that are also skilled technicians.

Great detail in the video goat…I wondered if you would respond to the few that got all bent about the arrow weight …lol…most knew you know the bow itself and what it can do beyond manufacturing recommendations….sure liked the open box from Lancaster…wondered about that cono….great arrow build and detailed results from the bow itself…can’t wait to see it preform on the TAC course…great video to the camera person and you…😊

Great vid as usual. Excited to see the water buffalo hunt!

Love it! Push the limits man! Can neither confirm nor deny I wanna try it with my lift 33. I’m on tape 10 and I’d love to get up in the -5 range. That would be a killer antelope rig!

Awesome video as always. Will you consider doing a video comparing past Mathews bows (like the Halon and Triax and newer) to show how much better the bows are now, and how their dual cam bows and cross centric cam system have progressed?

Mad respect for pushing the limits 🫡 I’m doing the same just in the other direction. Trying to shoot as heavy an arrow as possible. Right now I’m set to shoot a 2,850 grain arrow 😮 keep rockin🤘

Love you videos you’re the reason I’m getting into archery with a lift

Those limbs were bending almost to the cables!!😅😅 Holy moly thats scary!

The garmin works awsome when you put it where it says in the instructions recommended

Hey mate,,, looking forward to seeing your trip here down under - good luck

oh man! ur going to love aus! waterbuf is a fun hunt man, who you going to have take you around? if you wanna come to sydney to hunt goats while you’re here i have a block that’s over run with them and can deffs get u onto something. it’s steep country but a ton of fun!

I use the back side of the rail to put my other sight tape for the fixed pin just above the level. So on the main side I have 20,30,40 and the back it starts at 60 with the level pin.

So will you be using your top pin as your roller or second fixed pin ? The way my dad did his ultra view 4 pin was he sighted in the scope housing to his fixed 30 yard pin and then sighted in the top at 20 yards and found his 60 with the top pin and made that his roller but you found 60 with the fixed pin if I understood correctly ?

@chrisbeereal You do not need to shoot directly over the garmin. They have a very wide view but the device needs at least 15’ to the target read. They operate by radar not light so it can be pitch black and read. It can read pretty slow it reads my orbeez gun lol

Yes!!!! The new Chrono😜🙏🏼

Thanks chris for pushing the limits.😁

Hi Chris there is a bow hunter in Australia that uses a 60lb bow he has no trouble killing Buffalo with his bow.

loving the video

I ghetto estimated my bow speed by shooting a known distance and dividing it by the flight duration by “timing” it with my phone audio recorder. I sure would love to use a chronograph for confirmation though. :)

Love the video Chris

Great video, Chris.

Why not use 200 gr arrows? You could exceed 400 fps and massively reduce misses from yardage error.

Hoping to see you at tac in Michigan! 👍

Hello Chris, I shoot bohning vanes which vanes do you shot for tac. My bow is an Atlas 75# 33” mods, full shafts 250/32” Easton 6.5 currently running blazer want to switch to 2.25 x3. Thank you

First! Your videos are amazing Chris, I can’t wait to watch the TAC videos coming soon!

Are you guys ever going to come out with a "dead stop" for the UV Slider? That and a vertical 3 pin with adjustable pins that are actually bright would make the UV Slider 10X better.

Keep the videos coming.. Tac vermont today..let's goooo.. Dead stop 20 and metal tapes for UV Slider?????

Chris! Loved the video and I have a question for you. I noticed you have your arrows offset slightly - is this so you’re able to get vane clearance from the cable guard? I’ve been having trouble with getting contact on mine and am wondering if this is what is required to fix this. Would appreciate the advice!

i just had a question on the bonus pin in the uv slider how does it work? i tried centering the pin in my peep sight and it didn't work

Works by space magic, or dopler radar or something. I run mine about 20" in front, and 10" bellow and never have a problem.

KE is determined by the draw weight of the bow, double the arrow mass and the KE will be within 3-5 ft/lbs.

That's super cool! I wonder if you could calculate the FPE?

I would love to see a slow motion shot of that arrow at night with a lighted nock going out to max yardage!

Okay so now you have to tell Mathews to start shipping bows that meets these exact specifications.

The radar comes out the back so it needs consistent speed to get a reading. If the arrow suddenly stops in the target it can't get a good reading

I love watching your videos, you explain everything in detail ☺️☺️👍🏻👍🏻 greetings Chris🤗

Bow is on fire

I know it's faster on camera to use a handheld scale, but people know they aren't accurate right? It's a "close enough" measurement because the force that you use to pull it back adds to the actual resistance measurement. You should really test draw weight in a draw board with a proper scale (e.g. LCA Bow Scale 3.0) to determine the true draw weight of a bow.

When is the video about the shot sense in the grip of the bow coming out ?

250s will definitely clear up some of that arrow flight cause you can see them struggling a lil bit (not saying clean flight is necessarily better for the target archers in here😂)

It be cool to see you shoot those light arrows into some ballistic gell and then some regular arrows just to compare

I have noticed that the Garmin reads a bit slower than your old Pro Chrono. I've seen 3-5 fps on average. Not a big deal, just something I've seen in every review of the Garmin.

can you do a video on your bowstrings for hunt season what brand you use and colors???

Little concerned that Chris’ “prototype UV slider” is gummed up after a year.

Another great video. I'll take that old chrono off your hands ✋️

I have a two part question I’m gonna start bow hunting public land are there any tips for that and also do you think a whisker biscuit or a drop down rest would be better

the 5 grains per pound has a lot of buffer in it.

It's a Doppler chrono... So think Labradar, but mini...

Nice👍

The garmin works even if you just have someone hold it right next to the riser.

So Chris, you said you were putting that chronograph into retirement. What would you say about sending it to a long time subscriber, me, if I paid you for shipping???😉😉😉

What draw weight scale are you using?

Are you going to be at the TAC shoot next weekend ?

That thing shoots with no arc at 60 that's crazy. And is it just a bit louder than normal

410 out my Pse full throttle that I custom built using speed pro max arrows and different cams.

i dont test speed at the bow, your arrow will lose spped at 40m its a slow bow still, what is it? seems to be like a 330fps bow wound up beyond 80lb. modern over rated bow im guessing?

Isn't the rip tko only slightly heavier but much stronger?

Chris now try making a heavy arrow like 800 grains+

your better off shooting withought a dloop to increase draw length, boosting you slow bow poundage wont help much. your light arrow is similar in speed with my 500grain arrow, which i dont uae on water buffalow

Where do you go to order your arrow’s? That’s safe and a good deal I’m looking at ordering of the victories ss series. I haven’t decided on where to order them. Yet

Should have shot through the old chrono to compare the speed to the new Garmin.

Left this comment on your last vid hope you can see it on this vid. Need some advice man, I live in the city but Ive always been attracted to hunting and fishing. My parents aren't big in either and they've always told me know to owning a pellet rifle or any firearm, and even bows. There's an archery range right by my house and for years I talk about how sick it would be to get a compound bow and take it to the range. Turned 20 yesterday and I told them if I could finally get a compound bow and surprisingly they said yes. But now that I got the okay, Ive been debating it solely because of city living. Live in socal and there aren't many bow shops near me and I am not to knowledgeable about building my own setup. I feel like I wouldn't get to utilize the bow because of my location. Thoughts?

I’ll take your “retired” chronograph. Lol. I’ll pay ya for it and for shipping.

X3 Vanes beereal 🤩🤩

do the beereal grips only work on mathews

Mount it on the stabilizer?

A man with two watches never really knows what time it is.

Been wanting to run this by you for a while now…. Why do you look at the top cam when you draw back? Lol

Well I already knew this but glad to see I was right only way you're getting ibo speed on a matthews is shooting 80lb with a 350 grain arrow 😂

If you shoot long draw u get faster arrow speed than short draw speed slower arrow speed.

340, wow almost as fast as a 2008 PSE xforce. Mathews will make a fast bow oneday

Are you shooting any 3d this year

Chris please do a collab with kendall gray

Xbow guys would be in trouble shooting you for money. Raven & 10 point guys might get their wallets emptied by you.

Do you sell pre built arrows?

I shoot a Pse xpedite 440 grain arrow 83 pounds at 343 fps

Who is going to the tac August 2 through the 4 in Michigan

80lb bow just to get ibo speeds lol

It needs to be further away from the target. Edit: I should have waited just a bit longer before commenting… 🤣

Place the garmin 5-15" away from bow. Chris: I will completely disregard the instructions.

Absolutely hilarious people freak out about something they dont actually know about.. Ive been shooting sub 4grains per pound for a long time with zero issue.. 300 grain arrow with 82lb setup 30.5" draw and 370+FPS

Let's go! 🏹

you finally bought a monster6

I wish I could pull back 80lbs

which sitka pants are those

I am guessing you are aware that the tape bars on the UVSlider can be moved up or down by loosening their screws? You don’t have to pull the setup tape off of the tape bar to adjust it!

Constructive Feedback: I've seen many of your videos with wonky audio, either too much to the left or to the right, that mic needs to be changed

27:00 "It's probably extremely high kinetic energy... because of how fast we're shooting." That's NOT how it works. Either this guy is ignorant, or he's just spewing nonsense to impress those who don't understand the details.

U can send me ur old chrono.

oh your usinging a slow bow, have fun trying with your girly bow.
