Mathews Unveils the 2025 LIFT X: A Revolutionary Hunting Bow with Advanced Technology
<p=Mathews, a leading manufacturer in the archery industry, has announced its 2025 lineup of hunting bows, with the LIFT X taking center stage. Building on the success of the 2024 LIFT platform, the LIFT X introduces several key enhancements and innovative technologies.
The LIFT X features a stronger, lighter riser design, new limbs and limb pockets, and a new axle system. One of the most significant advancements is the introduction of Mathews’ patented Limb Shift Technology (LST). This technology allows archers to micro-adjust the limb channel without the need for a bow press, simplifying the tuning process and eliminating the need for tophats. A simple turn of an Allen screw can adjust the limb tip, correcting cam lean issues at full draw.
The LIFT X comes in two models: the LIFT X 29.5 and the LIFT X 33. The LIFT X 29.5 has an axle-to-axle length of 29.5 inches, a brace height of 6 inches, and an IBO rating of 348 FPS. The LIFT X 33 measures 33 inches in axle-to-axle length, with a brace height of 6.5 inches and an IBO rating of 343 FPS. Both models offer 80 or 85% let-off and are available in draw weights ranging from 55 to 80 pounds.
In addition to the LIFT X, Mathews has also introduced the LIFT RS and LIFT XD. The LIFT RS is designed for smaller archers, with a compact 27.5-inch axle-to-axle length and draw lengths as low as 23.5 inches. The LIFT XD, on the other hand, is tailored for larger archers, offering draw lengths up to 33.5 inches.
The new bows also feature the Engage grip, with additional grip options such as the BOND grips, including the Taper grip. These enhancements aim to provide a more comfortable and customizable shooting experience.
Overall, the 2025 Mathews LIFT X and its accompanying models are set to redefine the archery experience with their advanced technology and user-friendly design.
