It comes in two versions, the 5-inch-brace-height ultrafast (360 IBO) MX-15 and the 6-inch very fast (352 IBO) MX-16. Both feature the Hybrid Duel Stop (HDS) cam, which allows shooters to select limb stop, cable stop, or combination of both to adapt to their own shooting style. Draw length is adjustable in ½-inch increments without a bow press. I knew this would be the fastest bow on the ATA ranges this year, and being (a) old and (b) not usually a fan of speed bows, I was a tad nervous. My angst only grew when the tech informed me they only had a 70-pound model for me to shoot. But I was pleasantly surprised. Not only did I shoot the MX-15, repeatedly, but I shot it pretty darn well. The draw cycle puts most of the load up front, so the job gets easier as you go. The MX-16 is a bit easier to draw and still one of the fastest bows of the year.
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.
PSE sets the bar in terms of total number of new models for 2020 with a whopping 10 offerings. We’ll focus on the Pro series here which includes the Carbon Stealth and EVO lines, which account for seven new-for-2020 models. Let’s start with the carbon bows. The Carbon Air Stealth line is feather-light, weighing about 3.5 pounds and is available in Mach 1 (31 1/8”, 332 fps, 3.5 pounds), EC (33”, 342 fps, 3.3 pounds) and EM (34” in length with short draw-length options) configurations. The EVO NXT line features aluminum risers and laid-back limb configurations along with a redesigned grip system and a lowered stabilizer mount improved pendulum effect after the shot. The NXT 33 is 33 inches in length with a brace height of 7 inches and speeds up to 322 fps. The NXT spans 35 inches, has a 6 7/8” brace height and speeds up to 328 fps. It’s also available in a long-draw version with draw lengths up to 32 inches. The NXT 21 is, you guessed it, 31 inches in length. It has a 6 1/2” brace height and speeds up to 329 fps.
How we started in the business? Hunting Giant was formed by a group of people who has a deep love for hunting and the outdoors.

Here’s a prediction for 2020: The Wicked Ridge M-370 is going to be an incredibly popular option for crossbow hunters. The M-370 checks a lot of boxes. It’s arguably the lightest crossbow ever made, weighing in at just 5.8 pounds. It’s easy to handle, measuring 9.5 inches wide when cocked. It’s plenty fast, driving arrows at 370 fps. And it has TenPoint’s time-proven ACUdraw system. Best of all, it’s offered at an attractive price of about $700. It’s available as a kit with a TenPoint Multi-Line scope, Alpha-Nock arrows, and a quiver.
