Shooting 80yds with the New Hoyt Carbon Matrix

[zenorix]

and suddenly a bike passes by

[Leomannvilla]

Good shooting. My hats off too you

[rhendrix8393]

What kind of stabilizer is that?

[roundweego1]

Just missed the truck

[utubehotdog]

wow that first shot was scary, missing could of hit that car with a little skip

[the26thhour]

"I see your lol & raise you a pwned." said elkhunter11... hehe

[bdshank]

I just bought an all decked out ready to go Matrix for $940 on ebay, was that a good deal?

[TheZoelzer2]

@bdshank idk, but dont u think u should of done your research before u spend that much money on something.

[bdshank]

@TheZoelzer2 Well heres what I know, a new carbon matrix runs $1300-$1400 with nothing on it. What I don't know is how well they hold their value. The bow I bought would've been $1900 brand new set up the way it is. I did my research, I just want to know what people think

[AntJoCac]

That was a long fuckin' walk....

[siciliancara]

someone just got owned

[elkhunter11]

if you look at the end of my other lighted nock video it shows the website

[ARCANEOS51OX]

@elkhunter11 what poundage am i lookin at m8.

[elkhunter11]

@ARCANEOS51OX 65lbs

[koviack]

@elkhunter11 why not shoot @ 80?

[Deerdestroyer543]

what kind of target is that

[Hoytrampagext1]

Hoyt rampage xt and I love it.. Good shooting

[Zatracenec]

Shooting in the direction of the road??? :-O

[msouthj32]

@Zatracenec I was thinking the same thing. I shoot at 80 & 90 yds regularly with my Jennings bow and get really tight groups. Don't get me wrong, as soon as I am able to I will get the Hoyt Carbon Element, I just thought he was going to have some amazing grouping with those arrows.

[Zatracenec]

@msouthj32 I see. :-)

[koviack]

@Zatracenec probably a private road for his property and he's shooting, not driving

[Zatracenec]

@koviack Ive meant it in the sense of safety. Shooting in the direction of the road....strange idea. :-) But I understand, that the road is maybe beyond the range of the bow with this elevation.

[bedong77]

the design of the limb pockets on a mathews doesnt compare at all to a hoyt. where the limbs mount to the riser is very critical. most olympic shooters choose hoyt. Theyre just more dependable and more accurate. If i had to shoot another bow it would be a mathews but theyre a distant second. Hoyt has been making bows for about 80 years.. mathews only 20. come on.

[elkhunter11]

my son now has this one and I have the CARBON MATRIX PLUS

[Shortyaustralia]

@elkhunter11 u showed that guy up :P . did ur sight come with the bow ?? do you know how much they cost ??

[elkhunter11]

@Shortyaustralia 6.

Black gold sight is a add on to the bow you can get them for around 100 dollars but it depends on what model you get some are more some less

[BC9696]

You are damn inspiring. My Matrix Plus, QAD HDX and Spot Hog Hunter sight arrive this week. It's all your fault!

[AaronLaw777]

i got the matrix and love it. check out the video of a deer i shot with mine...

[rbowen47]

.10 and .19 are huge. they are .010 and .019

[MrUnforgiven100]

totally saw the third one fly

[125countryboy]

Great shooting. I've been looking at a matrix for a wile now. How much did yours cost?

[elkhunter11]

@125countryboy

mine was a lot but my dealer has 1 used right now for 700 let me know if you are interested

[TheDakotalight]

nice shootin'! farthest shot I've ever taken was with an alpine archery bow. i shot a mid-lung shot on a glen-del buck target at the wvba's bowhunter shoot from 50 yards

[elkhunter11]

@TheDakotalight

Tke a look at my 100yard shot also

[Drifter0678]

I have a Carbon Element and groupin' like crazy at 80 yards! These Carbon Bows are something special!!! The have a whole different feel! Lovin it!

[LoganHockey34]

Oh and btw... GOOD shooting

[LoganHockey34]

should i save up and buy a hoyt carbon matrix or a mathews monster or z7?

I shot hoyt all my life (even though ive only had 2 bows) but i was told mathews is clearly better. im just looking for more opinions and please dont suggest other bows because im sticking with either a third hoyt or my 1st mathews

[elkhunter11]

@LoganHockey34

You should go with the the one that fits you best it would be between the z7 and the Hoyt I shoot several before I decided on this one but the Z7 was second. If money is a issue than there is no question.

[FallingIdols420]

Go team hoyt!

[MrUnforgiven100]

THAT IS A VERY POWERFUL BOW I THINK( AND IM NOT JOKING) I AM GOING TO BUY ONE TOMORROW. I LOVE IT. I HEARD THAT THEY ARE CHEAP TO BUY BUT WELL MADE.

[NorthAmericanArcher]

how do you like your bow? i have the same one and im inlove my buddy shoots the diamond iceman and he shot my bow and flicked me off and now his bow is for sale..

[elkhunter11]

@NorthAmericanArcher

I love it

[blackfeatherarchery]

80 yard's without a target sight sure-loc system.

[chanceteel]

i have a friend who shoots a skoal can at 100 yards.

[thefulldraw]

They make a bow now days called a Mathews Z7, maybe if you had that one you could hit the white circle that you were aiming for!

[MrVzeman]

not so good shooting - you missed all arrows :-)

I had Carbon Matrix, but I sold it - Contender Elite is much better for me (I shoot in average 5 points more with contender as with matrix)

[bvillmek79]

good shooting.

[rezwarrior84]

nice shooting! 80yrds, and touched 2 arrows together! good shooting!

[rezwarrior84]

nice shooting! 80yrds, and touched 2 arrows together! good shooting!

[brushcreekbunnybustr]

great shot



[baguazhang2]

What arrows are you using? I also have a carbon matrix, and I'm having a hell of a hard time setting it up. So many variables with shaft gpi, tip weight...etc.

[elkhunter11]

@baguazhang2 I shoot the Easton Lightspeed 3D 400 I had first tried shooting some that were recomended by others but they also shot like crap they were not as good on the straightness catagory which I believe is very important along with shaft weight and spin consistancy.

[baguazhang2]

@elkhunter11

I didn't see the Lightspeed in stores, and ended up getting Radial X-Weaves. I finally bought all the components for my bow, and shot it yesterday for the first time at a local shop to sight it in. Very, very nice. Now I just need to find a place where I can shoot on a regular basis!

[saultman]

Nice shooting dude! I just bought the Mathews Z7 and I cannot believe the groups and the speed this bow produces. I am also a Hoyt fan and have owned many of them,very nice bows too!

[rrod49]

some people may say lol.. those are those hunters who only hunt out of tree stands and blinds only and feed them at shot no longer than 40yds max.. nothing against that i wish i could do that but its not legal.. practice and practice but most of all the love of the sport and a wall full shows you alot... somethings you got to take those longs shots so you have to practice.. i hunt california and that all i do i wish i could more but here you can pass up a fork horn.. shooting with hoyt clovis CA

[gvman3670]

Well, they're all in the four ring. Good shooting.

[phbsdkfsduhf]

Good shootin!

[elkhunter11]

retail is close to $1600 but can be found less than that

[GSPxRUSH]

how much does this hoyt carbonmatrix go for?

[griffy85b]

Well, you killed the deer. : )

[digger024]

Sounded like five winners, and looked like five winners. This leaves no doubt, you're a really good shot.

That is some top of the line equipment also ... I think a lot of hunters dream of owning a Carbon Matrix. I know I was thunderstruck when I first saw that bow. Have my eyes set on a Carbon Element now, but I'd settle for the newer Matrix.

Hoyt has proved their dominance in the archery world, PSE is going to be hard pressed to compete with these bows.

Well done sir!

[elkhunter11]

actually it is a little loud with out the string silencers the ones that come on it are junk did not last 100 shoots I put new ones on before hunting season now it is quiet again 2 good bucks so far this year with it, a 142" and a 167".

[fmfin]

OMG !! NOW that is shooting !! Well done !! My 1st bow was hoyt with wooding limbs (22yrs ago) Now looking to buy my 3rd bow and its diffidently going to be a Hoyt!! Some one in the post say that bow sound loud ! NOT TRUE ! Its sound quite ! THAXS for this video !!!! COOL :-)

FIN

[SayHiToTheBadGuy]

maybe its just me, but that bow sounds really loud. very nice shooting though, hell, Id be doing good to see 80 yards let alone hit the target.

[Nameofoglon]

Good shooting! By the way, what is the diameter of the target?

And as far as it concerns the distance, I counted 93-94 steps. pretty decent. More than 70 m

[pleal1]

Good shooting! What is your poundage set at? Thanks!

[elkhunter11]

@pleal1 66LBS

[atvpunk69]

which rest is that? i like how tis a fall away, yet you can "cock" it and it stays up to hold your arrow in place in case you have to sit your bow down

[elkhunter11]

@atvpunk69

The rest is a QAD ultra rest quailty archery designs yes it is a fall away rest.

[arabianights]

man, this is truly amazing, never thought anyone can shoot the target from that distance!

[3dshooter25]

Good shooting man. I love that Carbon Matrix. Are you going to get the new Carbon Element or the Carbon Matrix plus they just released?

[elkhunter11]

@3dshooter25 no to the carbon element I like the little longer axel to axel length but I will probably add the roller guide and the stealth shot to mine.

[estepmusic77]

Im new to bow hunting ...I just purchased a matthews switchback from a friend and dropped my first deer last week. Im hooked . Really enjoyed this video. For novice bowhunters like myself it helps me to understand whats out there and I get great feedback from the other comments. Thank You for the video and for everyone else who has commented!

[BuddyWackIt369]

Are you comfortable shooting at deer at that range.

[elkhunter11]

@BuddyWackIt369 No to much of a chane the deer will move look at my other video of me shooting a deer at 100yds in that I make the comment that I would not shot a deer that far away.

[NotFromBehind]

Good shooting!!! I shoot the carbon matrix as well at 29/70 . Love love love this bow. Although here in illnois we dont have 80 yard shots, its still fun to shoot at those ranges. How do you like those light speeds by easton? Ive got consistant 10" groupings at 80 yds with my GT pro hunters with FF200 Vanes. Do you hunt with the light speeds? Hows your groupings with your hunting arrows if theyre different than the Eastons? Thanks-

[elkhunter11]

@NotFromBehind

I hunt with the lightspeeds never had a problem with them being to light for hunting they blow right through the big IL deer, also have killed Elk with them as well. I hunt in southern IL as well as IN and KY.

[zziNsanityz]

nice man i wish i could try that bow!! But im just goin to stick with the pse untill christmas then get my hands on a z7! nice property by the way nice looking grass nice shooting it makes a perfect video thanks man! make more!

[VNVGUNNER]

Looked like 80 to me.

[jrmridgley]

for me, six paces is ten yards. 42 paces would be seventy yards. You walked 45 paces. 75 yards. Since you were shooting from about 2 yards in front of the camera....I just figured it to be around 70 yards. I just figured if everyone was giving you a hard time about it and it is so important that you SHOW everyone your skill, you would figure out a way to prove the distance. (maybe you could use your range finder to shoot the distance in front of the camera???) No need to insult me bub.

[Skiier2008]

@jrmridgley

How about we see your video shooting that group at 80 yards. Until then, don't waste our time explaining your crude pace counting method to estimate his yardage. We all know that varies person to person and is inherently inaccurate. I'm not bashing you, but If the man says its 80 yards, its 80 yards.

[iacomastro]

Look at the cars!!!!! .....ahahah...

[elkhunter11]

@iacomastro OK I dont usually have the target set there I moved it so I could get the distance as the corn field was geting to tall were I usually shoot from but the road is 160 yds from the target if I missed the arrow would have just burried under the grass.

[iacomastro]

@elkhunter11 I was only kidding, of course!!!.... I was only referring to the cars!! I KNOW these are 80 yards!!...

Anyway, how much did you pay for the Carbon Matrix??? Here in Europe it's over 1000 damn Euros

[jrmridgley]

Judging by your pace count, It seems like you're shooting around 70 yards. Any way you can think to prove to us that it's 80?

[elkhunter11]

@jrmridgley I really dont think you can count very well it was actually 81 yards acording to the Leupold rx 1000 range finder so if its off complain to Leupold, try looking at my other video of me shooting 100 yds so if I am off 10yrds as you think then a tleast that one should be long enough.

[BowHunt1229]

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

[MrPoonasty]

i really dont understand the carbon matrix, its not that fast or that light and cost's a 1/3 more than other bows in that range. but it does look real cool....nice shooting one day ill be able to do that!!

[SayHiToTheBadGuy]

Good shooting. made that dude eat his words. 

[TMHanson3]

I could hear those arrows brush together, nicely done. I wish I had that bow, its indestructible!

[S00096809II]

Well Done!!! Great shooting. Have you had any experience with the Maxxis 31? if so how does it compare to your the Carbon Matrix. Once again, well done!!!

[elkhunter11]

@S00096809II Sorry I have not shot the maxis but I do have the Alpha Max 35" and they both shoot really well there is just something special with the Carbon Matrix with the feel that I just love. It is very light weight and smooth shooting.

[S00096809II]

@elkhunter11

Thank you for the response. I was raised as a traditional recurve shooter but recently, I have been seriously considering purchasing a hoyt combound. I live in missouri and hunt in some pretty thick growth so I am naturally drawn to the shorter bows. Thanks again and well done. you seem like a very respectful and responsible hunter. I am glad to know that are still some of you guys out there.

[erichoward15]

Im a mathews man myself but man Ive gotta say, thats one helluva bow. Excellent shooting by the way!

[elkhunter11]

@erichoward15 I have been a mathews man also till a few years back when the limbs got real thin it just did not feel right to me, my last Mathews was the LX. Would not mind trying the Z7 but ended up with this first.

[NewDaysofNoah]

GET EM!!! LOL GREAT SHOOTING, BUDDY.

[OliverWrist]

Great video, many thanks. Got the same bow and can only hope I will get anywhere near your results :)

[clevmartin]

great video bro

[purgy3332]

Nice shooting. Man ive got the carbon matrix also and it is by far the best bow Ive shot or owned. Ive got the 7 pin .10 spott hogg sights and these bows shoot amazing no matter what the distance! Had the alpha max then the z7 now the cm.

[elkhunter11]

@purgy3332 I now have a new sight with the .010 pins much better for the long shooting even better for the close shots.

[elkhunter11]

@purgy3332 I now have a new sight with the .010 pins much better for the long shooting even better for the close shots.

[patrickscott16]

very nice,, how much did the whole package cost you if you dont mind? im looking to buy the carbon matrix.

[elkhunter11]

@patrickscott16 Patrick I already had all the acc's from my other bow so I was only out the cost of the bow on this one and I am sure you know how much this bow cost if you are looking to buy one. You will love it.
