I'm looking forward to a part 2! I would love to see how these bows preform outside at longer range and even more so would like to see you test there shootability from a treestand or saddle for us that arnt western hunters like yall. I'm from south east Missouri and I'm in a tree 98%of the time. Some bows are harder than others to draw in those positions. You make awesome content I definitely appreciate all the work you put in to your videos!

@ryanderlago 2 месяца назад

Love this! I went into this winter open minded on all the bows rather than just flagships. Ended up with the Darton Consequence. I might buy a second one now and still have money in my pocket vs buying my annual flagship. Thx for continued informative vids!🙏

@jakedublya15 2 месяца назад

Awesome video and something you don't see enough of. Looking at the whitetail max as a back up bow because I like the extra speed you get from it. But that's the joy of personal preference.

@aaronmcwilliams7014 2 месяца назад

Awesome job!! Looking for a loaner bow for the stable. People come over and want to learn. Can’t wait for second vid!

@joelculpepperoutdoors4262 2 месяца назад

Definitely recommend the Consequence. I bought one and had a few small issues but Darton replaced it. The new one groups very well at 100 yards and the speed is very competitive with my Phase 4 33. Both 70 lbs, 30 inches.

@AVOinc 2 месяца назад

Where is the PSE Stinger? The Stinger will out shoot all of these bows.

@Danny-el8ww 22 дня назад

@@AVOinc I tested the stinger when I was buying my first compound. Draw cycle felt like garbage. I ended up with an edge 320 for adjustability, but there was a bear that was a close second. Some other people told me it could have been a bad setup by the shop, idk if you've had good luck with it. My experience was that there was almost 2 humps during the draw and I was like meh.

@jonathancowart1154 2 месяца назад

Love this type of content. I personally cannot afford the latest and greatest and top name equipment. I love my Bear Execute 32, used HHA optimizer ultra, Trophy Ridge stabs. It gets it done. Keep up the good work. Def subbed.

@danielwetzel9859 Месяц назад

While I enjoy seeing all the budget bow comparisons. I feel using the RTH they offer is more what people are looking at. Maybe I’m wrong. But the amount of technical specs in the accessories is a bit overwhelming to a new guy. I’m new to it and the RTH setups is what drew me in

@UrMom_says 2 месяца назад

I DEFINITELY would like to see a budget bow hunt or two. I hear so many people say they want to get into archery but it's too expensive. I think these types of bows are much more feasible for the masses. And they are way underrated.

@Texaslivinoutdoors 2 месяца назад

I had the Bowtech carbon knight like 12years ago, great bow I think that’s similar to the new carbon Zion.

@huntsimple9527 2 месяца назад

With the cost of outdoor equipment at all time highs due to the explosion of social media related to the outdoors and the societal changes from COVID, there will be more and more of the need for budget based solutions. Thankfully some manufacturers are on top of that. Prime included. The Ronan should be on this list. I would run a Ronan with a Whisker Biscuit and a decent sight all day long and that could easily be under 1K.

@adadwithabluecollar 2 месяца назад

If Bear would have put the EKO cam on the Alaskan XT they would barely sell any Persist or Execute bows. Keep up the good fight you two.

@rogueapparatus6414 2 месяца назад

I shoot a 21 Resurgence which is effectively an Alaskan, but the XT is a longer ATA. It's a really great bow. Very smooth and consistent. With the right rest and site it performs

@fint8940 2 месяца назад

Thumbs up for the Alaskan XT ..A note for the Bear models, they offer an inexpensive($15) Bearpaw grip that has a great feel if you don't want to shoot right off the riser..

@kellanskott7324 2 месяца назад

I'd love to see a "budget accessories" vid...as a beginner archer I have my bow and my 2 dozen arrows....everyone talks about releases but to me a release won't really improve performance I'd love to see a vid about maybe the best budget sights and/or stabilizers or whatever else may actually help me improve now that I know I like the sport and don't mind spending some more money but not wanting to change my bow

@jimrodtka852 2 месяца назад

the most important series on the interweb O'connor, good job! Glad you're growing back your whiskers lol. P.s. - I would argue all day - every day - that these bows are every bit as capable, maybe more so than many top end offerings, as an awesome hunting rig.

@jimrodtka852 2 месяца назад

.....now do hunting sights under 50 bucks, and same with arrow rests. In the real hunting world, simple is virtually always best .......the budget equipment almost always rolls that way by design..........kill 2 stoned birds at once O'connor ;)

@TimConnor13 2 месяца назад

@deanbrantley 2 месяца назад

That PSE Mach 30 for me was a serious swing and miss for $2k. I actually waited on that bow before picking one to buy. The Darton or Alaskan is hard to beat.

@kevinarmstrong7469 2 месяца назад

I bought the bear alaskan and it's been really solid. Only issue was it had a weird twang when I shot it and it sounded a little loud. I took off the bear limb dampeners and put aftermarket ones on...what a huge difference. Other than that I love the bow. And for reference my last two bows have been flagship bows but I don't feel this one lacks in any department.

@lylemiller5016 2 месяца назад

I sent you message on ig too bt Maybe do a video on shooting a whole bunch of different Lighted knocks see which one are The brightest in the most consistent. Thank you for continuing to put up videos every week. Love it keep it up👊👊

@llamawizard Месяц назад

I’m thinking about getting my first real bow. Aside from the K-mart one I had as a little kid. I like the idea of having a lighter bow. My brother has a Matthew’s, and it just feels so weighty with all his accessories, etc. Doesn’t feel ideal for hunting. So I like the carbon bows. Not completely sure how the Zion got eliminated. But that Darton Consequence looks mighty sweet.

@MrFornicater 2 месяца назад

Why not anything from PSE or Elite?

@coltonstegeman4469 2 месяца назад

Yes definitely hunt with one, then do pros and cons after the hunt

@paulkolhepp5070 2 месяца назад

The Bear Whitetail Maxx is just what you said it was, but I still chose it over the Alaskan because of the let off adjustability. The picatinny attachment points don't interest me. I prefer the old school attachment points. To each his own I guess.

@allenmcswain5151 2 месяца назад

I find it so funny how I would watch Josh for my pistol reviews now I'm watching him for my frist bow purchase. Any suggestions I wanted the carbon zion but after this I'm leaning towards the Alaskan XT

@larrydrake8457 2 месяца назад

I picked up the Darton Consequence beginning of the year, one of my favorite bows, I was able to get it for $585.00 with a 10% coupon code, I think this is the best choice in the budget category.😊

@toddblackburn4862 2 месяца назад

I just bought the Darton Consequence two weeks ago and got it sighted in to 70 yards. I own multiple flagship bows from Bear, PSE and hands down this bow out performs them..!! I was actually looking at the Alaskan XT , but after watching MFJJ’s review in the Consequence I was sold…. Probably still going to buy the Alaskan XT … curious to see which one you choose…????

@michaelb2076 2 месяца назад

Bear Alaskan all day bro! I have the 2022 model at 31/70. It's a workhorse and stupid accurate. It is made to hunt and performs very well. I also run a Mathews.

@keithkeahi1145 2 месяца назад

Just got back into archery 3 yrs ago after 20 yrs out and was blown away by all the new tech put into it. Told myself doesn’t seem much more they can do to bows that will be a major jump that will make me think 10 yrs from now my current bow will still be considered a decent bow. But after following MFJJ and religiously watching almost every video he posted. Im realizing there’s a lot more little tweaks that manufacturers can do. Thought I just bought my last bow I’ll ever need but looks like there might be 1 or 2 more bows in my future.

@jasonadkins9943 2 месяца назад

I like this budget bow video concept. My personal belief is that for hunting, you need a decent bow that will stay in tune. Not necessarily a flagship. I also believe, you are better off to go with a less expensive bow and buy higher end accessories like the sight and rest.

Got mine for under $600 fully setup with 10” front 6” back , trophy taker cable drop away and spotthogg apex Hogg for under $900. Shop around you can get a flagship bow setup with plenty of money leftover to bet your buddy with the flagship shot for shot and possibly thicken the wallet…😮

@nilslandis1603 2 месяца назад

How big of a deal is the limb pocket material? Bear Alaskan XT is plastic, Darton consequence is aluminum, but does that make much of a durability difference for the average shooter?

@danielshields34 2 месяца назад

Goes to show how subjective this is, I bought a new bow yesterday, when I spoke to the bow shop saying I was tossing up the Alaskan or Whitetail, they said to just save time and get the Whitetail. And they're the same price basically.

@kylehoward5452 2 месяца назад

The Darton bow is so impressive that they could build that with basically the same limbs and cams from their flagship bows and still make the riser out of 7075.

@l.i.archer5379 22 дня назад

Tim felt a little crunchiness drawing the Alaskan XT. He's foreshadowing here, because it ended up with a bad bearing in later videos where he's doing a shoot-off to see which bow he takes to TAC. That crunchiness may very well have been the beginning of the bearing going bad.

@dcskamau 2 месяца назад

Tim.. would like to know what your criteria for budget bows are? Seems more like moderate price category not budget... Most of these bows are not off the rack bows from standard corperate stores... good content but more midrange than budget bows... I would consider diamond 320, bear species, PSE stingers or drive NXTs, Missions, darton bows more budget bows (complete packages) Again what is your criteria for "budget" ??? If you are going for budget bows, step down to entry level bows not midrange bows.. OR qualify this and state that your discounting entry level bows for mid price range bows. Curious why you picked $1000 as the price point for budget bows? Someone could just as easily buy say a Mission or PSE stinger and be good to go. While I would guess that most that follow you shoot and have flagship bows, one could easly spend under a grand and get into the sport with a "budget" bow.
