I haven't liked anything Mathews has put out in years. The Halon was a nice step for them but this Triax really is the nicest bow Mathews has made in quite a while. I tried out a whack of bows this year, Hoyt, Prime, Elite, PSE, Bowtech, and the Mathews lines and I really think it's between the RX1 Turbo and the Triax. A really close contender was the Bowtech Realm, that bow really impressed me as well. What the deal maker was for me was the 28" ata of the Triax. Most people don't like short ata bows but I've always shot them well with a 29" draw length.
I got one in Stone that will be here hopefully by next Friday. Can't wait to fling some arrows! |
Congrats on the Triax. Lawrence said he was getting 1 in. That is quite a killer combo, maybe the 2 most talked about bow's on Archery Talk are the Triax and RX1. Actually this year has been really good for everyone. Realm is getting great reviews, Ritual is best Elite ever so I am told, PSE went crazy with speed/lite weight with a smooth draw, and Prime introduced their first split limb which I shot and really liked. Heck of a year!
All these great bows this year and silly me just bought a Reign 6 in 70lbs. Never thought I would own a Bowtech but I never shot a bow that felt more comfortable and natural even compared to the Realm . Should be here next week and I can't wait to start flinging arrows.
