Shot the LIFT 33, RX 8 Ultra and the Ethos back to back. Being a Mathews guy, I was dead set on the LIFT walking in. Aaaaaaand I was wrong. That Hoyt draw cycle this year is absolutely butter. Now was set on 70 and I thought it was on 60. I made them put it on the scale to prove that it was at 70lb. The Ethos held better than both and was a tad stiff. I’m sure that now with the comfort mods pulls like a dream. So I walked out with a whole different set of issues to think about 🤪
Hoyt is a solid bow for sure. Hunted with the RX 7 Ultra last year and it was great
Just picked up PSE Omen and lovin it
Yeah man had my Omen for 6 months now 74 lbs 30 inch DL leaves all the rest in the dust
Shot the 8 ultra in the shop loved the string angle at my draw length got one on order
I’ve been a die hard bowtech guy for over 15 years, and the rx8 is just a superior bow these days for sure.
Yep RX8 ultra 80lb on order also, hopefully arriving very soon
This is one of the first reviews that I've watched from you on Bose and I'm really curious to see what you have to say and everything because after I listen to that hunting stories podcast and really got to know a little more about who you are yourself. Aaron, other than just kafari you, you know a lot of shit and are a badass huntering dude and I really like to learn from you so thank you for whatever I'm about to watch and see
Id love to get one of those elites but I'm having a hard time finding fault in my old trusty mathews traverse.
Could I ask wich rises finishes is that Ethos? I find it stunning, the best once I swa from them since they removed the Graphite Gray option...
I agree almost with everything you said and would pick the 8 also but sorry my dude there is only one bow that had any hand shock and that was the Evolve from PSE. The Ethos has the lowest vibration and noise out of all them so I’m guessing something isn’t right on that bow to give you shock.
That same hoyt rest on the front you can use on the Ethos as well.
I love my HOYT ALPHA X 33
Wait what was the arrow weight?
74lbs with a solid grip will give you hand shock compared to a thick rubber grip on the Hoyt. Comparing a carbon bow vs aluminum is also kinda silly lol
Hoyt conveniently rated high this year and coincidently accompanying the podcast sponsorship. I felt the PSE M34 to be superior in performance, tuning, and weight. The Ultra did have better draw cycle at 30.5", 70# over the M34 at same with S2 cams maxed. M34 about 8 fps faster. Ethos does seem legit tho.
Why do you want to slow down your arrow speed?
He’s stated in prior podcasts that above 280fps fixed blades don’t fly as well or become finicky to tune. Have noticed the same
@@Intermtn9736 oh interesting, thank you
Its too bad those carbon hoyts are made in china im surprised you are promoting a chinese bow
If you have seen the stress test thou, its more than durable and high quality
🤣 wheres your phone made? Your computer? Your shoes, clothes, watch, tv, kitchen appliances? 90% of all our stuff is made in China, grow the fuck up.
I don't known if your claim is correct, but for like 20 years 95% of the carbon fiber chassis from all manufacturers including high end brands have been made in China, not to mention the hardware from iPhones has been made mostly in China from Foxconn, so while I will agree that that country was known for decades for having low wage workers and cheap mass produced stuff they are absolutely in the bleeding edge of technology of carbon fiber... And I say this as someone which still prefers aluminium risers...
