Editor’s note: Thanks to the the folks over at G5 Outdoors for sharing this one with us last night…pretty cool!

Prime bows feature a forged 7000 series aluminum riser, making them the strongest in the industry. Independent testing shows a Prime riser can hold over 4,000 pounds, twice as much as our competitors. We did our own testing with an SUV weighing 2,900 pounds. Here’s the result!

    It is always a little disappointing to see a company attempt to gain a marketing edge through apples and peas testing. The Prime bow is strung and the other riser was not. The other riser was likely a Prime riser that was un strung. A 20 strand bow string with a net strength of approximately 120# per strand will lift about 2400#.
    The Jeep looks as if it did not have a motor and was pushed into the camera view.

    Any 6061 T6 riser would do the same given an apples to apples test.

    Shame on G-5 for thinking we are idiots. No stars.
