March 2 Update: Winners have been announced. See if you won here.
Applying for hunting tags across the west means one thing... bowhunting season is right around the corner! So with that said, there's no better time to win a new bow. And this month is going to be an awesome giveaway!
This month there will be 5 winners in our Insider giveaway. Each winner will get a Mathews VXR bow in the specs of their choice, plus winners will receive a Q-Lite Quiver and a Flatline Stabilizer. Total value $7,745 ($1,548.98 per complete bow kit).
Mathews bows have always been known for their shootability and the quietest dead in hand feel. The new VXR is honestly better than their best, taking technologies from their target line, but at the same time maintaining the maneuverability of a compact hunting setup. For more information, be sure to check out more information on the Mathews VXR here. GOHUNT's Trail Kreitzer was able to put the new VXR on a full test drive before they were released last fall. Check out his review here.
Mathews took a strategic approach to the VXR riser design that created a bow platform that cut weight while maximizing axle to axle length and rigidity in critical areas.
With Switchweight Technology, there's no more messing with your limbs to adjust the bow's draw weight. You can now adjust your peak weight with the quick change of a module in 5-pound increments with a simple change of a mod. Available in 60, 65, 70 and 75 lb peak weights. Switchweight mods are programmed for an incredibly smooth draw and maximum efficiency.
The VXR features a repositioned damper that is tuned to the specific harmonics of each model to reduce post-shot vibration and noise. In addition to that, the extended position provides added balance at full draw. Our bow expert Trail Kreitzer described the VXR as "scary quiet."
The VXR features an enlarged stabilizer bushing which increases the stiffness of any attached stabilizer by up to 10%. This leads to enhanced accuracy and vibration damping.
This new Silent Connect System feature on the VXR allows you to attach their exclusive Mathews bow rope and sling in the field. This is a quick and extremely silent way to carry your bow or haul it up a tree.
This integrated Ultrarest MX Rest feature was released in 2019 and continued on the VXR line. This design sports a dovetail mounting system for quick and easy setup while providing a secure hold. The compact micro-adjust rest was designed specifically for Mathews bows with a streamlined housing allows for precision tuning with .0019 thousandths of an inch adjustment per click, both horizontally and vertically. Check out the rest here.
