Bow arrows online shopping from Hunting Giant? Some years are speed years, and some are shootability years. Each January, as I shoot one flagship bow after another at the ATA Show, it becomes clearer and clearer which way the new crop of compounds is trending. And 2020 is a shootability year—but with a twist. Besides a couple notable exceptions, bow companies seem to have called a truce in the speed wars, at least for now. Whereas 350 fps was the IBO mark to hit last year, the majority of flagships I shot this time around were rated in the 340s and even 330s. In other words, you’re going to see a lot of smooth shooters on bow-shop shelves this year. And you’re going to see something else too: way more adjustability. Maybe the biggest trend for 2020 is that virtually every bow this year features a module or disc or locking screw that lets you customize the draw length, the draw weight, or the let-off, or allows you to fine-tune your bow for perfect bullet holes through paper—all without a press.
The only difference between Hoyt’s two flagship bows is easy to spot: It’s the carbon, silly. The carbon for the RX-4 does cost you, though — and it’s at a $500 difference. But here’s the thing: The RX-4 is crazy-light and feels incredibly stable. At 3.9 pounds, it’s almost wacky to have it in hand. But, the exactly-the-same-besides-carbon Axius weighs in at 4.3 pounds. How much is that weight difference worth to you? Because the Axius is still pretty dang light. The RX-4 shoots up to 342 fps, which is a smidge slower than last year’s RX-3 series. Across both bows, you’ll find draw lengths from 25 to 30 inches and weights from 30 to 80 pounds. Axle-to-axle heights are available only at the 29.5-inch option in this bow.
With its flowing, highly reflexed/deflexed riser setup, an Obsession bow strikes a unique profile. It’s also a pretty solid shooting platform. The 2020 Evolution XS figures to be another in that line. And, once again, this is a bow with built-in tuning features. The XS uses Obsession’s new OB Adjustable 4-track cam system that allows for hyper-tuning of the cam system for perfect arrow flight. The bow weighs in at 4.4 pounds, measures 31.5” in length and offers 90-percent letoff. It boasts an advertised speed rating of 338 fps. You can custom color this rig to your heart’s delight with 29 riser colors, 16 limb colors, nine string colors and three cam colors.

The Warhammer is the minimalist’s crossbow: This no-frills model from PSE features a pistol grip, a MagPul recoil pad, and advertised speeds of 400 fps. When fully cocked, it’s a nimble 6.125 inches wide and weighs in at 7.6 pounds. It’s available in black or TrueTimber Strata or Mossy Oak Country camo. The crossbow was designed, and is built, right here in the USA, though the company has not yet released a price for it yet.
