Well finally upgraded my 2001 Champion Buck for a 2023 Mathews Phase 4. Last week, I shot the Phase 4, Lift, and Hoyt VTM. Went back today and told the bow shop owner to hand me one at the time and not tell me what it was. They all felt about the same, but the Phase 4 is what came home with me.
I was interested in the Bowtech but they didn't carry them.
Went with the 5-pin fixed sight after considering the 3-pin slider. I'm a KISS kinda guy. Unlikely I'll shoot at an animal over 40 yards, but don't want the potential of having the sights set to the wrong distance.
Old Champion was set at 55#, and shooting a 380 grain combo at 250 fps, for 52.7 ft-lbs.
Phase 4 is set at 60#, shooting the same 380 grain combo at 290 fps for 71 ft-lbs.
