Are new tuning systems worth the upgrade?

I'm currently shooting a Hoyt ventum pro 33 it's time for new strings and I'm thinking about making a jump to a new to me bow. Lift x 33 or a bowtech. Looking at these because of the tuning systems.
I got my current bow at one time grouping my fp and broad heads out to 70+ yards by bare shaft tuning. It was a pain staking long process and done mostly with moving the rest (with out micro adjustments clicks) I'm hoping one of these bows will be easier and faster to tune at home with out a press but is it worth the cash? Do I get new strings and micro adjustmet rest and stick with my current bow?
 
Its a little faster. If you already have a press, especially one at a location you can broadhead tune, meh.


If its a little headache to shoot, then go adjust, can be worth it.


If you know what you need for cam lean for your grip and form, should be able to get close before you start, then micro adjust with rest.

So I'd say it depends.
 
For me it was worth it. I have all the bow tools needed in the garage, but when I’m out back shooting, it’s still faster and easier to make an adjustment and keep shooting.

When you factor in how much quicker, and how much more precise you can be with adjustments, it’s an easy yes for the new bow. Assuming your budget allows.
 
Thanks for the feedback! Would anyone say one system is better than another? I'm very interested in a lift x mainly because I've never shot a mathews but I've read it's not very forgiving?
I shoot my hoyt well and like it for the most part. The last part of the draw is a little aggressive, it make near impossible for me to let down smoothly which has burned me once in a hunting scenario.
 
@Krem Test drive the Mathews ARC.
Really like my ARC 30.
I did swap out modules from the SWX mods to the SWX-Z mods. Tuning is a breeze.

Deadlock and SET have been good systems for me.

Honestly, i think its personal preference. You need to ask yourself what the difference between choices is. That ventum is just as accurate as any bow available, i promise. The question is do you want to spend a little money or a lot of money. Save a lot of time(possibly) or spend a little more time.
