New Compound Bows for 2021

Here's a look at new compound bows for 2021 from the annual ATA Show, held virtually this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

BEAR ARCHERY Redemption EKO

This 31-inch axle-to-axle bow is the perfect choice for any tree stand, hunting blind, or spot and stalk scenario. The all-new Vibration Reduction System (VRS) helps stabilize and reduce lingering riser vibration by up to 25 percent. The patented EKO Cam System for ultimate adjustability, the Redemption EKO fires arrows at a blazing speed of 342 feet per second. Weighs only 4.1 pounds and has a comfortable 6.25" brace height. Align Lok Technology works with your sight to aid in second- and third-axis alignment. Get more info here

MATHEWS V3

Choose between the V3 31 or 27, depending on your axle-to-axle preference when you're shopping for a brand new Mathews. Take a close look at these bows and you'll notice the cable guard looks a little different, which is of course, by design. Their new Centerguard Cable Containment system is built to equalize the angle of the cables throughout the draw cycle, which results in optimal cam timing and vane clearance. Or in other words, a higher level of accuracy. The V3 31 tips the scales at 4.5 pounds, shoots up to 342fps, features a 6" brace height, and is offered in a variety of finishes including First Lite's new Specter pattern.

BOWTECH Solution SD

Optimized for draw lengths of 23.5 to 28.5 inches, the new Solution SD features the deadly silence and accuracy of its DeadLock Cam System. Its modern riser design and DeadLock cams give you a buttery-smooth draw and transfer more energy to your arrows with even more nock-splitting precision. Just move the cams left or right on the axles with a turn of a screw to position all the energy directly behind the arrow. Then lock it down for permanent, repeatable accuracy. Get more info here

HOYT RX-5

Hoyt's flagship RX-5 gets some serious upgrades for 2021, including the new HBX Cam System, significantly improving the shooting experience over the already super smooth RX-4. It also picks up redesigned Limb Shox, Shock Pods, and a new stabilizer mounting location so effective - the stabilizer is included the stabilizer. And with new finish options, the greatest hunting bow of all time looks as good as it feels. Get more info here

PRIME Nexus

The new Nexus is a combination of speed, accuracy and comfort, including its 360-degree-wrapped Nanogrip, which uses Aerogel, a NASA-designed technology that keeps hands warm and comfy. Available in three models with speeds up to 345 fps, Prime's fastest ever. The Nexus 2, Nexus 4 and Nexus 6 models have axle-to-axle measurements of 32, 34 and 36 inches and IBO speed ratings of 341, 345 and 331 fps. The Nexus also is 50 percent less vibration compared to last year's Black Series. Get more info here

ELITE EnKore

As a follow up to the wildly popular 2020 Elite Kure, the 33-inch axle-to-axle EnKore has an IBO rating of 340 fps, and utilizes Elite’s ASYM Tri-Track Cam System and S.E.T. Technology to make tuning easy and frustration-free. The 2021 EnKore features a newly designed Performance VersaMod System which offers 90% let-off and generates increased speed. Offering the best of both worlds, the EnKore features the comfort and shootability that an Elite is known for but with added performance. You'll be surprised at what a bow shooting 340 feet per second can feel like. Get more info here

Xpedition X Series

The new X Series bows feature three new patent-pending technologies: 1) A proprietary material known as X-Loy by Magnite, a blend of alloys, infused with carbon, to make a bow that is lighter than many of the carbon bows on the market and stronger than aluminum. This material is forged, and CNC machined to create the best of all worlds - light, strong, and streamlined. 2) LVR (Lever) cam redefines the levels of efficiency and allows archers to push kinetic energy and momentum to unprecedented levels. 3) ETS (Energy Transfer System) enhances the cable system dynamics, increasing performance and efficiency by pre-loading the cables and limiting the movement of the cables. Three bows are available in the new X Series. Get more info here
