Based on looking at videos close-up regarding the grip options it looks like the “Taper” grip is the solution to their rounded grip torque problems. It has a nice flat back and looks like it would be the most accurate option.

I would like to understand what they actually did to the limbs to make them tougher. Still the stupid 8 limb approach and they don’t look any different than Lift limbs. Did they actually do something to eliminate the risk - and if so, exactly what. Or is this just marketing BS with no meaningful change having actually taken place?

Now comes with "ARC7 LIMB TECHNOLOGY"
We’ve pioneered a new limb material and multi-step build process to ensure strength and consistency across the production line. The result is a completely new limb that is more durable and more efficient throughout the load sequence than any limb we have made to date."


Sounds like the "technology" is taking their time making them, and the new limb material is not a bad batch
 
Looks like the price tag is starting to creep up there with Hoyt… Won’t be long before a new bow will be hard to swallow for the average hunter…
I'm pretty sure that the price has already surpassed that. I saved for over a year to purchase my Sequel 33 this spring.

Same here. The only thing that interests me this year is the Mach 35.
Yeah, I'd like to shoot that one, plus the Exalt LD, Shootdown Pro with E2, and supposedly Bowtech will have a new 34 that has a long draw cam. I seen a video on the XD, the cam is huge!! Wonder if it will feel like a longer ATA bow, I'll have to shoot one soon.
 
100% would get this if I didn't have a lift as I don't care about the grip but would love the Bowtech tuning... and once they hit the used market (no way I am paying full retail)
 
Ideal for women target archers or as a crossover bow. Goes to 30” which isn’t short!
It’s short when you have long arms. Just never made sense to me why they refuse to make most of their target bows go to 31” draw. The 36” title doesn’t even go to 31”. That’s okay it keeps my wallet happy
 
Still no better than my halon X
And 6 years later ,guss I will keep waiting
I liked the Halon X, but this bows is worlds better. Much lighter, and if you are crawling up a mountain after Mulies, or sheep you will 100% appreciate that. It is faster, more stable, better grip options, better everything.
I don’t like the shorter valleys of the newer Mathews and not looking to buy this but have tested a ton of the new Mathews vs the older bows (has a Halon X I used for 1/2 a season) and while it was a great bow for its time these new Mathews leave those halon’s in the dust.
 
If you haven’t put one in your hands Im telling you they feel and hold like they have a much longer ata. The riser on the 33 is the same length rise at my title 36.
I want to echo this and state that the VP of our local archery club is a ASA Open Pro and he says the riser on the Lift 33 is actually longer than his Title 38 and he wished he could shoot his Lift in ASA tournaments and I’m pretty sure he does shoot it for IBO shoots.
 
The new "fade to black" colors are way different, they look more like a regular camo option. The shale/black option is freaking sweet. I don't have the money for a new bow but that would be on my list if I did :ROFLMAO:

New grey color looks nice. New grip options are a srep in the right direction. They are using 2 different limb deflections this year instead of 1. One deflection goes to 60# and the other goes to 80#. The limbs look the same but obviously they are different.

They feel the same as they use the same cam and mods. That's a good thing as I really liked the feel of my Lift33. The only things I didn't care for were the grip and the limb issues. Looks like they have fixed those issues but only time will tell.

The new tuning feature is a bonus, haven't played with it yet but seems very user friendly.

Mathews gets 👍👍 from me.
