Hey everybody this PJ Reilly from Lancaster Archery here in our
distribution warehouse today. PSE has just launched a bunch of its 2018 bows
and we've got two of them here that we're excited about, that we wanted to
tell you all about. We're gonna start off with the PSE Xpedite. This is a flagship
hunting bow from PSE that just has a ton of great features. Not the least of which -
the one that's gonna grab you right off the bat - is this right here
5 1/4 inch brace height. This is a speedbow.
365 per second max. Just awesome bow lots of speed. And we don't want to scare you off
with 5 1/4 inch brace because it features the PSE Evolve Cam
which they came out with last year. So that's going to take out a lot of the
negative things that usually come with a five-inch brace height. It's real smooth
to draw because of the Evolve Cam just rolls over nice. You don't really feel
the weight and this bow. The Evolve Cam - you can get three different mods and
that's designed to give you three different performances. So you've got a
high let-off mod is what's going to come from the factory with this bow. That
features 80 or 90 percent let-off you can adjust between the two and you can
imagine 90 percent let-off once you get this thing back to full draw it's like
holding nothing. Just really nice. Then they have what they call a low let-off
fast mod. So that one is gonna feature 65 and 75 percent let-off but it's gonna
have a shallow valley. That's the mod you're gonna need to get
that 365 per second. Third you're gonna have just a
regular low let-off mod this is going to be one that people like 3-D archers are
gonna like that. 65 and 75 percent let off with a regular valley. So it's not
going to be as sharp or aggressive as the fast mod. So as we said it comes
with the 80/90 percent let off but then you can switch to whatever you want.
After that and speaking of the mod, it features 24.5 to 30 inch draw lengths,
Half inch increments in between there.
It's just a rotating mod. Just loosen the screws and you change it
to set to your draw length. One of the things those of you who work on your own
bows are gonna like is the the cable stop which stops the cam from rotating
is built into the draw length mod so you don't have to do two different things.
You don't have to change the draw length and then change the draw stop. It's all
one piece. So that's really nice as we mentioned with the Evolve Cam that came
out last year. So it's a big cam as you can see which sometimes you would think
might lead to problems with cam lean but with the Evolve Cam one of the unique
features about it is it's got this string take-up right here takes up the
cable that's a cable harness and it does a full wrap around the string take-up
inside each side of the cams. What that does then is that's going to hold
it steady so that you don't have to worry about cam lean so this completely
unravels when you go through the draw cycle and it completely takes it back up
as the bow comes forward. Incidentally it's 33 inches axle to axle. That's a
nice length for a bow. You've got dual cages below the handle and above the
handle. That's gonna make this bow very stiff and rigid. 5 1/4 inch
brace height you'd expect a lot of hand shock - you don't get that with this bow.
Something PSE has been doing for a while now, they've got their new Wedge Lock
system for their limbs. That makes sure that their limbs are locked into place.
You don't have to worry about any kind of lateral movement. No slop in
the limbs there. So this bow is available in
maximum draw weights of 60, 65 and 70 pounds. Something - a cool feature of all
the PSE bows this year. PSE is now making their own strings. They have a new
system called the Live Wire system for making their strings and cables and
basically what they wanted to do was eliminate rotation. So they pre-stretch
this material. Here incidentally it's BCY 452x string material that's kind of
the industry standard for high-end bow strings and cables. And they pre-stretch
it so, when you the consumer get it on your bow, you're not gonna have to worry
about peep rotation. So just high-quality strings and cables that now
PSE is making in-house. So next up we have the PSE React. This is a great new
bow that's out this year and what's great about it is it's a mid-range bow.
It's not priced like your high-end flagships but it features the Evolve
Cam. This is the cam that PSE has on all of its high end bows so you can pay a
little bit lower price but still get the high performance cam that it has on its
best bows. This bow comes with the mod that allows for 80 or 90 percent let-off.
90 percent let-off, you're basically holding almost nothing at full draw. It's
real nice you can hold it all day. The React you're gonna see has a seven inch
brace height which is very forgiving. That combined with the Evolve Cam, you got a
super forgiving bow for drawing and it's a nice easy draw cycle. So this bow is
rated at 330 feet per second IBO. It comes in maximum draw weights of 60 and
70 pounds. The draw length is another rotating mod and it offers 26 to 31 and
a half inches in half-inch increments. You just turn the mod to get it to the draw
length that you want. As always if you have any questions be sure and visit us
