The 2025 Mathews LIFTTM X brings never before seen levels of tuning and customization to every bowhunter. Featuring Mathews’ patented Limb ShiftTM Technology (LSTTM), the LIFTTM X allows archers to micro-adjust their tune with the simple turn of a wrench, no bow press needed. ARC7TM Limb Technology delivers the most durable and efficient limbs Mathews has ever created and the all new BONDTM Grip System customizes the point of contact for every shooter.
“The LIFT X continues to push the envelope of bow technology,” said Brad Treu, Mathews Vice President, Sales & Marketing. “While the 2024 LIFT was among our best-selling bows of all time, we’re never satisfied. After countless hours of R&D, we took to the drawing board to find ways to enhance the archery experience even further. Out of that has come the all-new LIFT X, resulting in our most versatile hunting system to-date”.
Ranging from 24.5-31.5” inch draw lengths and peak poundages from 55 to 80 pounds, the all-new 2025 LIFT X is the next expression in Mathews’ pursuit of excellence and represents the pinnacle of archery technology. The LIFT X weighs in at a mere 3.99lbs and is available in 29.5” or 33” axle-to-axle variations.
Limb ShiftTM Technology (LSTTM)
Limb Shift Technology (LST) is a first of its kind tuning system that allows the archer to micro-adjust the limb channel without the need for a bow press. By keeping the cam in a fixed position, Limb Shift Technology optimizes the limb balance and load within the limb channel, resulting in a more efficient and effective tune.
“Limb Shift Technology brings the highest level of precision tuning to the individual archer,” said Mark Hayes, Mathews Design Engineering Manager. “No longer will you need a bow press to tune your bow. With LST, you can quickly and easily tune your bow with the simple turn of a wrench to achieve a perfect tune, every time”.
ARC7TM Limb Technology
With all-new ARC7 Limb Technology, Mathews has pioneered a new multi-step build process to ensure strength and consistency across the production line. The result is a completely new limb that is more durable and more efficient throughout the load sequence than any limb Mathews has ever made.
BONDTM Grips
After mapping the hand placement of hundreds of archers, the all-new BOND Grip System was born. Constructed from a durable polymer base, each BOND grip was engineered for superior ergonomics and features a textured rubber grip surface to enhance traction where you need it most. The BOND Grip System was designed to be easily interchangeable by quickly and securely snapping into place without the use of adhesive. Available in three new designs as well as a side plate variation, the BOND Series offers superior control, comfort, and repeatability no matter your hand size or shooting style.
BONDTM Engage
The BOND Engage provides consistent hand placement and unmatched repeatability for the majority of archers, while maintaining the classic Mathews feel at a 14 degree grip angle.
BONDTM Contour
At 14 degrees, the BOND Contour was designed to reduce torque and provide the highest level of comfort without sacrificing downrange consistency.
BONDTM Taper
At 17 degrees, the BOND Taper features a wide, flat lower face with an aggressive edge tapered to a narrow throat. A common preference among target archers.
BONDTM Side Plates
The BOND Side Plates are a minimalistic option to create a slim grip profile with a flat back by shooting directly off of the riser. Includes two new textured grip tape options to provide a customizable feel.
Mathews® Genuine Bridge-LockTM UV Slider
Manufactured in partnership with ULTRAVIEW, the new Mathews Genuine Bridge-Lock UV Slider offers a new level of integration into your bow system that cannot be found with any other sight.
“The goal was simple: combine all the experience and bowhunting knowledge of our two companies to push the boundaries of what a bow sight could be,” said Kolby Hanley, ULTRAVIEW Founder & CEO. “Together, we agreed that we would either make something exceptional or we wouldn’t make it at all. That collaborative effort led us to create the Mathews Genuine Bridgelock UV Slider – the best bowhunting sight ever made, period. This partnership has set a new benchmark for bow sights and proves what can be accomplished when passionate bowhunters pull out all the stops”.
This lightweight and minimalistic design weighing in at a mere 9oz. is the lightest Bridge-Lock sliding sight on the market. Keeping streamlined ergonomics at the heart of this design, UTLRAVIEW’s patented DualDialTM makes this sight the smoothest and most user-friendly sliding sight in high pressure moments. New features include more durable and brighter pins wrapped in an impact resistant shield, a rechargeable and removable lighting system that bring focus to low light situations and HomeStopTM, a quick return to 20y feature for dynamic moments in the field. Available in three unique pin configurations including a new 5-pin design, this is the best sight ever built to be used on a Mathews.
Additionally, Mathews expanded the LIFT line-up by introducing the all-new LIFT RS and LIFT XD with draw lengths ranging from 23.5-29” and 32-33.5”. The addition of the LIFT RS and XD was purpose-built to bring Mathews’ latest flagship technology to all archers.
LIFTTM RS
The 2025 LIFT RS brings Mathews’ latest flagship technology to shorter draw lengths or those who prefer a shorter axle-to-axle bow. Small but mighty, this 27.75” axle-to-axle bow turns the chronograph up to 353 fps, offering remarkable speed in a compact footprint while weighing in at a mere 3.92lbs. With draw weights ranging from 41-80lbs and supporting draw lengths from 23.5-29 inches, the LIFT RS can be customized to fit a large variety of archers and is optimized to provide performance at shorter draw lengths.
LIFTTM XD
Built with long-draw archers in mind, the LIFT XD boasts draw lengths up to 33.5 inches and features a forgiving 6 3/4 inch brace height. With speeds up to 363 fps, our all-new oversized SWX+ Cam brings LIFT technology to long draw archers in the same lightweight, heavy-hitting profile the LIFT is known for.
The 2025 LIFT X lineup is available in eleven finish options, including Mathews’ newest options – Kuiu Verde, Shale, and Shale Fade-to-Black. You can find more information on the 2025 LIFT family and new accessory line at mathewsinc.com and experience them today at your local Mathews retailer.
