Mathews Archery

Mathews Archery designs and manufactures compound bows that balance speed, accuracy, and reliability. Their 2026 lineup splits into two distinct categories: hunting bows built for real-world field conditions, and competition bows engineered for tournament precision.

The hunting collection includes three primary platforms:

• •ARC Series - Speed-focused designs available in 30" and 34" axle-to-axle configurations:
• •ARC™ 30 ($1,459) - 348 FPS IBO, weighs 3.99 lbs, brace height 6"
• •ARC™ 34 ($1,569) - 343 FPS IBO, weighs 4.3 lbs, brace height 6.5"

• •LIFT Series - Mid-range hunting platforms:
• •LIFT™ RS ($1,399) - Shorter ATA option for hunters preferring compact designs
• •LIFT™ XD ($1,499) - Extended draw length capability
• •LIFT™ X 29.5 ($1,359) - Compact hunting platform
• •LIFT™ X 33 ($1,469) - Full-length hunting bow

TITLE series bows engineered specifically for tournament shooting: - TITLE™ 34, 36, 38, 40 - Configurations for different draw lengths and competition styles

• •SWX-2 Cam System - Second-generation perimeter weight technology that reduces felt recoil while maintaining velocity through a complete hunting setup (peep sight, d-loop, accessories). Mathews engineered this to solve the real problem: hunting bows typically lose speed when fully equipped, but SWX-2 retains performance.

• •Reinforced Riser Design - The chassis uses machined construction with integrated V-bar mounting ports and Silent Connect anchors. This adds rigidity without excess weight.

• •Parallel Limb Assembly - Redesigned limb geometry creates perfectly parallel limb paths at full draw, which reduces vibration and improves consistency.

Mathews offers over 1,000 customization combinations through their Bow Builder tool. Available finishes include hunting camo patterns (Mossy Oak Bottomland, KUIU Verde, First Lite Specter, Optifade Subalpine), solid colors (Black, Kodiak Brown, Shale, Earth, Green Ambush), and fade-to-black variants.

Accessory catalog includes: - Arrow Vault storage systems - Silent Connect sights - Stabilizers and vibration damping - Match Bowstrings custom string packages - Quivers, rests, grips, and limb legs - BOND™ Grip System with ergonomic design - Stay Afield System for field maintenance
