It holds well on target and makes for easy shot execution. I do prefer a little wider grip that sits into your thumb pad, but I could see me adapting well to this one without any issues. The grip is very comfortable as your hand seems to slide right underneath the shelf well, making it very repeatable shot after shot. It only works off of a one cable stop, but even at that, you will experience a nice firm backwall. The Epix is very smooth all the way back to the end of the draw cycle, with no hump at all on the back end. The PSE Bow Madness Epix was a breeze to tune and I found it rather forgiving, with a variety of different bareshafts shooting quite well at 20 yards. With very little adjustment out of my rest, I could clean up the tail left impact of the bareshaft in relation to the fletched and everything came together perfectly. It was now time to move back to 10 and 20 yards. At 6 ft, preliminary results were looking great. At this point, all I am looking for is bareshaft entry in relation to a fletched arrow. I prefer to bareshaft tune everything I setup, so I proceeded to do that at 6 feet. Once all set up with a good starting base for tune settings, it was now time to put some arrows down range and fine-tune even further.

This can be easily compensated for with the rotating mods that make it very easy to adjust to your desired draw length, without the need of a bow press. The PSE Bow Madness Epix draw length is running about a half-inch long, so take that into consideration when setting up the bow.

For this particular bow, five full twists in the cables put me up to 70.7 pounds. Peak draw weight out of the box came in a little under at 68 pounds for a 70 pound bow, so I added a few twists to the cables to get peak bow weight back up to where it should be. I found the pre-lean in the top cam to be extremely close right out of the box. This will put you close enough before ever shooting the bow and help with some of the lateral tears you may encounter. The pre-lean on the top cam, when you lay an arrow on the left side and project it down, should be just intersecting your aim string at the nocking point. This starting point for your rest is a good base to start your tuning from and will get you going in the right direction. Already being familiar with PSE’s hybrid cams, I chose to start this one at 1/16 nock high and arrow running a little high in the Berger hole. Most of the Hybrid cam bows will run anywhere from 1/8 nock high to nock level. From that point, I needed to establish my nock height.
For this particular bow, ¾ inch off the riser worked very well and puts the arrow right down the center and also puts it parallel with the riser. Now, let’s get right into the overall setup and rundown of the 2017 PSE Bow Madness Epix.Īfter mounting a Qad HDX on it, I gave it a look-over to see where I wanted to start my centershot.
#PSE BOW MADNESS SERIES#
The riser cutouts and added dampeners give it a nice upgraded look compared to the Bow Madness series from 2016. It is clean looking and I liked the subtle breakup of the two-tone black, with the deer tracks throughout the camo pattern. The camo option for this particular one is the Skullworks 2. This paves the way for a more rigid and stable platform, giving you greater accuracy down range. The one thing I noticed right off the bat was the new angled riser design. It’s turning into a real pleasure to shoot and I am sure it will grab some attention when shopping for a new bow. The Bow Madness 30 is the perfect bow for me.This offering packs quite the punch from PSE this year. I want a bow that is easy to shoot, requires little to no maintenance and is built for a treestand.
"I don't get to spend the amount of time on the practice range that my dad and Mark get to spend. Perfect for tree stand hunting, the all-new Bow Madness 30 features the M2 cam, making the bow adjustable, accurate, and a smooth shot at 330 fps. The Bow Madness 30 is the perfect single-cam bow for the hunter who likes their bows light and compact. PSE’s 2015 Bow Madness hybrid models are undoubtedly awesome, but don’t think they’ve forgotten about the single-cam purists out there.
