2025 Mathew’s Bows

Yea, I didn't think about high letoff and no string tension.

Anybody have a brief description of how the limb shift works? Maybe I missed it? The Lancaster review claimed it “moved the cam” whereas I’ve seen elsewhere it micro adjusts the spacing between inside of the limb and the cam…so it adjusts the span on one side, and therefore cam lean, due to changes in relative deflection between limb tips? Just curious, seems nicer that top hats (no experience)

I do really enjoy my Bowtech’s with deadlock cam adjustments…curious to see what they come out with next week.

It adjusts the limb opposite the cable guard, moves it in and out, which basically effects the tension it applies to the cable. Which adjusts the cam lean. Moving the limb closer to the cam, gives it less leverage, moving it away from the cam gives it more leverage.

Dealers are going to L.O.V.E that they have to stock 4 models now. Absolutely LOVE it.

That Shale color sure is pretty though.

Yes just like having to stock multiple sizes of shirts......

Catch up bro. I didn't realize they got rid of the Prima, Image, and that long DL bow.

I personally think dumping the Image(or not putting the low poundage limbs on the 29.5) was dumb BTW. Normal draw length people shooting lower poundage are probably going to be put off by a 27.75" ATA. I know my wife would.

This might be the one that gets me to upgrade from my VXR 31.5... in a year, if they prove durable, when the market gets flooded with 1 year old used bows haha.

The main advantage to me would be broadhead tuning at home with cam lean instead of my rest. My pro shop gets things close but not perfect and it always bothers me moving my rest. Other small things like a quieter shot, lighter weight, and tighter to center accessories are great but so far I haven't found an animal that cared about such

I keep kicking my shoulder surgery down the road and got some more injections last week. They told me no more and I should be getting it fixed up early Feb. Probably would line up with perfect delivery time for a 55lb Lift and then all I think has to be done is changing the mods as I get stronger.

Good luck with the surgery, I'm tossing around the idea of labrum surgery on my left shoulder...I own the Lift from last year (already put an order in for the tuning upgrade on the X 33 model) and can tell you the mods are incredible. If you happen to live by a reputable bow shop, they will trade you mods out for free which is a game changer. I can shoot low poundage in the winter months and hike up as needed depending on the hunt. And since I shoot the 33, I can leave it at home for a backcountry hunt and just swap mods in my wife's setup and have a super short and light setup.

@Billy Goat educate me on what my limb choices are and what draw weight ranges they each cover?

I'd always thought there was a single limb choices, but I think I read something yesterday that there were more than one peak set of limbs?

The guy in the FB post with the limb issue has responded and says it was not a press issue he was drawing the bow back to set peep height and it happened. Mathews wanted the entire bow back and will send him a new one turns out the box the bow came in was damaged and the guy already has his new bow. So maybe it had damage in shipping??? Must have been some bad damage for that to happen and I’d be asking my employees who excepted that package like that..I’m still gonna get me one if I like it when I shoot it… if not it will be a Darton or a Hoyt..

Only on the short bow, the 27ish ATA do they offer 2 sets of limbs.




I guess the lightweight limbs are offering only a 50# mod that you can then back off 9# to get down to 41#?


A 33 will still drop down to 45#, they have had a 55# mod, and you can usually swing 10#.


I haven't played with them much.

I'm interested in the little RS, but my peep height I'll need to pull speed buttons and serving to shoot one. But I think it would be a fun little late season bow. Shoot around 55#., still keep my speed up, hopefully arrow won't bounce off.

How big of a tear can you fix?
