Two corrections. 1. The bow color is Midnight Copper, I misspoke in the video. 2. The bow also comes in drawn weight up to 75#. Sorry for the confusion.
Dang fine bow. Exactly what I was expecting from Elite this year, job well done, Including the disappointment of having to use the cheap Tru-glo limb legs and set the bottom cam down in the mud, gravel, rocks, grass or concrete. Come on Elite, build a freaking set of limb legs like the Mathews Engage bow stand. That’s easily the smartest bow accessory from a manufacturer to date. Why Elite hasn’t or won’t build their own is beyond me??
I LOVE the color and can’t wait for mine. Exact same color. The flat gunmetal bronze finish 😮💨😮💨 along with my accented parts and string in favorite colors.
It really depends on the lighting. I’m sure on the website it was taken on a white background with all the lighting. In person it’s pretty sweet. Outside it looks cool and then inside it’s got a little darker more subtle look
Nice review Jeff. Glad their out of the box tuning is better. I got rid of my omnia because it was such a basket case. My big grip is dearth integrated technology. Where is the dovetail rest mount and the bridge lock or pic rail sight mount. Don’t get me wrong the omnia shot amazing and I’m sure the new one shoots amazing but I’d rather have an Athens bow that’s basically the same as elite but with integrated technology.
How do you feel about the draw stops only having a tension screw rather than a set screw that holds the stop in place? Both the Kairos and Ethos had one draw stop move after about 20 shots in each. My theory is that the bows are probably slightly out of time from the factory and that allows for which ever stop hits first to be pushed back to its 90% setting. I contacted Elite for torque spec on the screw and they are adamant on not overly tightening the screw for the draw stops, as it can shear off, I was told “snug”. Even with that possible issue, I have a Kairos in order! My worry is will it harm the bow in any way if one stop is at 80% and the other is at 90%, will this harm my bow? I do not want to have to check my draw stops every shot.
Yes, they are pricey but you’ll be getting one the finest bows out there. Save up, go do some odds jobs. Get tight with the household budget for two or three months. NO IMPULSE BUYS! If you don’t need, really need, do not buy some extra junk. Been there and the money will add up faster than you think.
