I am 6’ 4” with a 32 inch draw and have been bow hunting for 43 years. In the early years
There was no bow manufacturers that made long draw bows. I wasn’t financially able to afford those that did, but even the longest draw bows still didn’t have long enough draw lengths. I shot bows a good bit and hunted more often than most. Not being able to lock my arms back caused periodic injuries in my shoulder until I started shooting Mathews longer draw bows 20 years ago. I have owned 5 Mathew’s in that time all great bows but still not giving me the draw length I needed. When I saw the specs of the Atlas I knew this bow was for me and any other person that shoots over a 31 in draw. I wasn’t let down – the Atlas is the quietest, fastest, most forgiving and accurate bow I have ever shot in my life. When I bough it, I was hesitant because of the price. After buying and shooting it, I’d pay twice what I paid.

I’m 6’4″ with a 32.5inch draw and I shoot the bow at 75pounds and it is an absolute beast. I have taken several big game animals with it and it just works every time!

Quiet, smooth and plenty fast. 33” draw and dead nuts accurate.

31.5″ draw length here. People always talked about trying different bows at the bow shop and getting eventually finding one that just felt right, felt like it fit. I never had that feeling until I shot the Atlas. As others have said, thank you Mathews for making a bow with tall bowhunters in mind.

As a taller person, it’s always been hard to truly find a bow that fits. I’m a 32.5 inch draw length and finally am able to get consistent anchor points. I bought the Atlas brand new in the summer of 2021. My review is based on two years of ownership. This bow is so smooth and forgiving. I hunt out of tree stands and have no issues with the ATA or dimensions of this bow. If you have a long draw length and want THE bow, get this. In October of 2022 I shot this buck on our farm at 52 yards. He only went 40 after the complete pass through with a 65# draw weight.

This bow is simply amazing. Smooth, well balanced, powerful. Thank you for considering tall guys and making me fall for archery.
New archer with 33.5 draw length can’t be happier.

My last bow was a Bowtech Boss.. I did love that bow, but I hated the “jump” it had if I didn’t really hold it back when I was at full draw. I stopped archery hunting and focused on rifle. This hunting season, I didn’t see a thing and I heard all the stories of how well the archery hunters did that season. I went to my local bow shop and tried a few bows, I tried a Hoyt R7 and the “new and improved” Bowtech, I can’t remember the model I shot, but I kept coming back to the Atlas, because it was just so dang smooth. After my last shot, I placed my order for the Realtree camo pattern I wanted. I have a 31″ draw and wow, so smooth. If you are in the market for a new bow and have a longer draw, seriously consider this bow.

Before I got my Mathews Atlas I was shooting a 32″ draw length, and I never really felt comfortable shooting, especially at longer distances. I found out that I actually needed a 33.5″ draw length and nobody at the time had anything in that size. As soon as I saw the specs for the Atlas I put my old bow up for sale and never looked back. The Atlas draw cycle is smooth, the hold is steady and forgiving, and it has plenty of power at my draw weight and draw length. This is by far the nicest bow I have ever shot and until Mathews makes a new Atlas I won’t be switching. I have been shooting better than ever with this bow now that I have the correct draw length. I practice shooting out to 120 yards regularly, and I have even taken my Atlas to a couple of Total Archery Challenge events this year. That’s my arrow in between Sasquatch’s eyes.

I’m still kicking myself for not buying a Mathew’s bow sooner! After always shooting Hoyt’s, I’m totally impressed with this new Atlas! This is by far the smoothest, quietest bow I’ve ever shot! I have it set at 31” draw and 70 lbs, and it is a pleasure to shoot! Can’t wait to get in the woods!

Along with everyone else, I too can only commend Mathews for such a wonderful bow. The bow is unbelievably smooth and stable in the hand (I don’t even use a stabilizer). I have mine set at 72lbs with a 31.5″ draw length and let me tell you, it can sling an arrow. If you have a long draw length you can’t go wrong here.
