I was thinking of upgrading my conquest 4 for a TRX38 or 40. I was wondering if any of you have a TRX and what your opinion is.
I have a TRX 38, and I highly recommend it. I have owned a number of bows from Matthews, Bowtech, Elite, MyBo (also Merlin), and have tried a number of others. Of all of those, the one that gives me the most pleasure to shoot is the TRX 38. It's a really lovely draw and the feel of the shot is excellent. Having said that, it is a heavy bow. The mass weight is quoted as 4.87lbs, which must be without anything on it, including strings. In reality the bow is well over 5lbs and most of that weight is distributed along the axis of the grip (that long straight riser) so it's at the end of your bow arm and it's going to feel heavy, particularly in comparison to something like the C4 which is only 4.4lbs.I was thinking of upgrading my conquest 4 for a TRX38 or 40.

Took up Golf and full time jobWhat happened to Liam Grimwood???
Hi I been offered a 70# bow are your 2 bows meet the actual poundage as the 2 Mathews bows I have had was always 3-5 lbs light. The reason I am asking I would need it to go down to 57 to be on the safe side.I can't fault the recommendation above, I love my 2 TRX 38s, they are a pleasure to shoot, hence why I have 2.
I can only speak for the G1 version, not so sure on the G2
Once thing you don't mention is DrawLength, anything Under 29" I would go for the 38
At the 38" ATA, they are a good all rounder, I use mine for WA Field, Outdoor Target and Indoor Target
Both mine make the the draw weight, never 3 - 5# light, the only thing I can think that would cause that would be they weren't set up to spec properly. I do all my own work on getting things set up, so I make sure they get to the specs are want, Draw Weight and Draw Length, ATA within 1/8" of spec and same for Brace Height.are your 2 bows meet the actual poundage as the 2 Mathews bows I have had was always 3-5 lbs light.

Thanks for the info it’s the minicam on the conquest 4 that reduces the draw weight as opposed to the max cam. I also do my own stuff and make my own strings my ATA in 1/2 shorter brace height is up 1/16 to get 55-56lbs the bow is 7 years old so I suppose I could have lost something there.Both mine make the the draw weight, never 3 - 5# light, the only thing I can think that would cause that would be they weren't set up to spec properly.

I've got 60# limbs and shoot then at 59.5# to keep them under the WA limit.
