    Levitate Vs RX-7 Ultra

    That’s what I’m leaning towards (RX7 Ultra with 80lbs limbs). Im not a full blown speed junkie, just need to be able to get a heavy arrow to around the 285 mark with a quiet shot. a 34” ATA / 7” brace with 80lbs limbs and a pretty dead silent shot seem hard to beat. What weight arrow are you...

    Levitate Vs RX-7 Ultra

    Thanks for the insight. Jumping up to the 80lb limbs is great except for the added stress it puts on the bow. Definitely a consideration I’ll take into account pretty heavily. Kinda surprised you’ve hade durability issues with PSE considering it’s American made an all (maybe that’s just the...

    Levitate Vs RX-7 Ultra

    Weight is a factor but only to the point of the effects it has on holding accurately. I primarily hunt the South East and Midwest but run a minimal tree stand set up so Having a shorter ATA length isn’t beneficial. Have you had any durability concerns or issues with your MACH1? Between your RX3...

    Levitate Vs RX-7 Ultra

    Currently shooting a Hoyt Ventum30 (29.5” DL / 80lb limbs). Torn between the Levitate and RX-7 Ultra as an upgrade. Thoughts below. Really want to upgrade to something with a longer ATA that still packs a little punch. Would be sold on the RX-7 Ultra if the speed was a little better. I shoot...

    Hoyt Ventum 80lb limb cracked?

    Cause it’s the only option I have within 2 hours one way. With work and life it’s hard to get to a place 2 hours away on a workday. I know a couple dudes that work on bows, but don’t want to **** up a warranty by having a non-dealer work on the bow

    Hoyt Ventum 80lb limb cracked?

    Cotton ball didn’t catch anything though I can feel a little bit of an edge with my finger. I’m not sure on the type of press used, all the work is done at the town pro shop which is a fairly questionable place (had some pretty shoddy work done in the past) though they are a big dealer and sell...

    Hoyt Ventum 80lb limb cracked?

    Is this limb cracked? It’s on an 80lb Hoyt Ventum 30 that’s barely a week old with less than 300 shots on it. I shoot 560 grain arrows, love the bow, but this is the second set of limbs they’ve put on this bow. First started to split on the side. Any takes on what they think?

    Hoyt Ventum 30

    Update: Mathews replaced both happy to update that Mathews replaced both sets of cam bearings, replaced my limbs, and re-painted my riser (paint was flaking off it). Pretty impressed honestly. Wanted to post it publicly for anybody that ends up reading this thread.

    Hoyt Ventum 30

    Update and a Question: Got my Ventum30 back from the shop. Clicking noise was coming from one of the mods. I think they either failed to tighten it properly after getting them set to my draw length, or the mod they put on there had a manufacturing defect? Bottom Line: the Ventum is back to...

    Hoyt Ventum 30

    Yeah, I’m not sure why it had to go back to the factory, all I know is that it was making clicking noises out of the bottom cam/limb area, the Hoyt issue feels very similar? Unfortunately the next closest pro-shop is 2 hours away one way. Sorry for the sarcasm about Bowtech, just frustrated with...

    Hoyt Ventum 30

    Both the VXR and the Ventum30 are borderline super bows..... when they’re not actively falling apart in my hands😂 haven’t killed anything with the Hoyt yet, but my VXR has got some notches. My old maxed out Bowtech Insanity CPX though, haha that sucker is triple digits deep!

    Hoyt Ventum 30

    It’s not a squeak at all. It’s a very subtle Click Click, but loud enough to where you could hear it standing next to me. I can see lithium grease still working itself out the pockets/cams. I mean the bow is basically brand new. Sucks cause other than that, I only really had positive things to...

    Hoyt Ventum 30

    It was smooth shooting til this afternoon. Started making a clicking noise 1 in every 4 shots, then 3, then 2. Once it decides it wants to make the clicking sound it will keep keep making the sound until I’ve shot. Then it can be hit or miss if the next shot is going to do it. Once I realized...

    Hoyt Ventum 30

    Just bought a Ventum30 2 weeks ago. Less than 500 shots through it and all of a sudden I’m starting to get ‘Clicking’ noises in the last 20% of the draw cycle. I’m shooting 425-440 grain arrows, 29.5 DL, with maxed out 70lb limbs. I took it to the pro-shop near me and dropped it off, they also...
