Mach 33 bow
PSE Mach 33 DS Carbon Compound Hunting Bow
The Most Advanced Hunting Bow of its Generation.
Stretching to 33” axle-to-axle, the Mach 33 is a masterpiece of modern engineering. PSE threw every trick in the book into this bow to build the most advanced, reliable, and powerful hunting platform possible. Building on the unparalleled success of the 2024 Bow of the Year — the Mach 30 — they’ve pushed the boundaries even further. The Mach 33 offers the ultimate string angle, advanced features, exceptional feel, and blistering speed. Now, with an improved carbon process, the Mach 33 is faster and stiffer, giving you a crisp, quiet shot every single time.
The PSE Mach 33 is packed with features that make it a modern bowhunter’s dream. The Precision Bow Tuning System (PBTS), captured roller guards, and integrated sight and rest mounting options make tuning this bow an absolute breeze. With the longer effective brace height from the Full Draw Stability System, you get the best of both worlds — incredible speed and unmatched forgiveness.
Riser Technology:
The Carbon Riser is built with a Monocoque Structural System in which loads are supported by an object's external skin, giving unmatched strength and substantial weight savings over aluminum. DFC carbon is warm to the touch, and PSE's proprietary Dead Frequency carbon material makes every shot ultra-quiet resulting in a dead-in-the-hand feel, ensuring precision and comfort with each release.
EC2 Cam System:
Renowned for its groundbreaking ability, the EC2 Cam redefined the modern cam experience, offering bowhunters a smoother draw and enhanced shot accuracy, making each shot consistent and precise. Its real strength, however, lies in its exceptional energy transfer capabilities, ensuring every shot is delivered with remarkable force and precision, resulting in higher arrow speeds and tighter groupings. The EC2 is very forgiving, while still providing the convenience of rotating modules and an adjustable let-off to dial in your setup.
Features:
- PBTS: A three-piece string set, designed for precise micro-tuning, offers the ability to fine-tune for optimal performance. The PBTS is crafted from PSE’s proprietary material and goes beyond traditional fiber-filled nylon and provides additional strength and rigidity without the fear of failure. Additionally, the PBTS includes a convenient eyelet for easy rest cord attachment, enhancing the overall ease in setup.
- EZ.220: The EZ.220 Snap Spacer System simplifies bow tuning and cam lean adjustment, reducing your time in the bow press and keeping you in the field. Spacers can be easily repositioned on a pressed bow, allowing for precise cam shifts in 0.020” increments.
- Limb Vise: The Limb Vise pocket system is engineered for unrivaled stability. An improved limb locking mechanism ensures that the limb pivots tighten securely against the handle surface, keeping the pocket centered over the riser, regardless of limb bolt position. You can trust in a consistent and accurate shot every time.
- FDS: The Full Draw Stability is a pinnacle of archery technology designed to provide exceptional stability during the most critical phase of shooting – full draw. FDS actively counters induced torque, ensuring that archers maintain balance and alignment even in variable conditions. By mitigating torque, this system enhances accuracy and precision, making shots more predictable and groups tighter.
- CGM Integrate: QAD’s patented arrow rest mounting system utilizes a dovetail rail on the rear face of the riser and is far superior to the berger mount. IMS™ compatible rests clamp down, forging a connection that cannot rotate and is twice as secure as berger mounted rests. The rest mounts in line with the riser, allowing other accessories to attach closer to the bow, achieving better center balance for a stable shot.
- Cable Guard: The new proprietary Cable Guard Mounted cable guard and quiver mount allows for less maintenance and seamless integration. With an ultra-smooth draw cycle, this system is unaffected by weather, debris, or other issues you’re guaranteed to encounter in the field.
- KillShok: Engineered to provide superior stability through an improved limb locking system. Limb pivots tighten against the handle surface to ensure the pocket remains centered over the riser regardless of limb bolt position.
- Picatinny: The Picatinny Sight Rail from PSE offers compatibility with a wide range of Picatinny rail-mounted sight models. This versatility allows you to select your preferred sight, ensuring a solid and seamless attachment for your adventurous abuse.

PSE Mach 33 FDS Carbon Compound Hunting Bow
2025 bow of the year- field & stream/outdoor life.
When the hunt pushes the limits of speed, forgiveness and deadly precision, the Mach 33 is a solid performer. Driven by the new FDS Cam System, it’s faster (+10 fps), smoother, and more forgiving—with a rock-solid back wall and up to ⅞” more effective brace height for confident shots under pressure.
Features:
- DFC Riser Technology: Stronger. Lighter. Quieter. PSE’s DFC riser uses Monocoque construction for unmatched strength-to-weight ratio and dead-in-the-hand performance. Warm to the touch, whisper-quiet on release, and tuned for elite precision.
- FDS Cam System: The new FDS Cam system delivers 10 fps for faster execution, while an increased effective brace height adds the forgiveness you need when adrenaline surges and margins are thin. A redesigned draw stop delivers a rock-solid wall so your aim stays steady and your release stays clean—even on steep angles or unstable terrain. Oversized 5/8” bearings boost long-term durability, while a recessed cable post reduces cam lean, improving shot consistency and simplifying the tuning process.
- EZ.220 Spacer System: Dial in with precision - fast. The EZ.220™ snap spacer system lets you adjust cam lean in precise 0.020” increments without extended time in the press. Shift, snap, shoot.
- CGM Cable Guard: PSE’s proprietary Cable Guard Mounted (CGM) system is built for the real world - immune to weather, debris, and field abuse. It integrates seamlessly with their two-piece quiver and requires virtually zero maintenance.
- Limb Vise Pockets: Engineered for lockdown stability. The Limb Vise pocket ensures perfect limb-to-riser alignment at any limb bolt setting, thanks to a redesigned pivot interface that stays centered - no matter what.
- Killshok Damper: Kill vibration at the source. The Killshok riser-mounted damper neutralizes residual feedback after the shot. Add modular weights for customizable stabilization.
- Full Draw Stability: Hold it like it matters – because it does. FDS keeps you rock-solid at full draw by eliminating torque and reducing micro-movements. The result? Tighter groups. Predictable shots. More wins.
- Picatinny Sight Mount: Picatinny rail delivers direct-to-riser sight mounting for rigidity, reduced weight, and full compatibility with today’s most trusted sight systems.
- Precision Buss Tuning System: Micro-tune, macro results. PBTS™ uses a three-piece string configuration for fine grain adjustability, letting advanced shooters zero in on peak performance.
- Integrate Rest Mount: QAD’s dovetail IMS™ locks your rest to the riser – no rotation, no drift. Cleaner integration, tighter tolerances, and a streamlined profile for better accessory clearance.
