About the product

The Hoyt Alpha AX-3 29 represents the third generation of Hoyt’s Alpha X technology, now elevated to a new performance tier with the introduction of the patent-pending XTS Tuning System™. For 2026, Hoyt combined a compact, stable geometry with the most advanced tuning platform the Alpha series has ever seen. The result is a bow that holds rock-steady on target, draws with remarkable smoothness, and tunes faster and more precisely than any Alpha model before it. Built for archers who expect reliability, adjustability, and efficiency in one compact unit, the AX-3 29 is an ideal fit for target, field, and 3D archery environments.

The AX-3 29 measures 29.5 in (74.93 cm) axle-to-axle, delivering a tight, maneuverable shooting platform that remains balanced in the hand thanks to Hoyt’s In-Line™ accessory mounting system. This design minimizes side torque and maximizes stability, giving archers exceptional control in high-pressure conditions. The bow’s 6.375 in (16.19 cm) brace height provides a strong blend of forgiveness and power, helping maintain consistency through the entire shot cycle. With a mass weight of 4.4 lbs (1.99 kg), the AX-3 29 achieves a balanced feel that works well with front stabilizers, sidebar setups, or streamlined minimal configurations.

Performance reaches 340 FPS (ATA) when powered by the HBX Gen 4 cam system. Known for its exceptionally smooth rotation, the HBX Gen 4 provides ¼-inch draw-length adjustability and customizable 75–85% let-off. The back-wall feel can also be tailored to the archer’s preference, creating a personalized draw experience that supports steady aiming and controlled execution. For archers drawing 25–30 inches (63.5–76.2 cm), the AX-3 29 delivers reliable performance and comfort shot after shot.

The true standout innovation for 2026 is the XTS Tuning System™. Unlike traditional tuning designs that address only left or right paper tears, XTS allows archers to correct both vertical and lateral tear patterns—eliminating high, low, left, or right inconsistencies. No press is required, and adjustments are precise, repeatable, and easy to execute. Archers can fine-tune arrow flight for paper tuning, bare-shaft alignment, broadhead accuracy, and even small changes in draw weight. This tuning system transforms the AX-3 29 into an incredibly adaptable tool for serious archers.

Hoyt expands customization further with new riser and limb finish options. Choose blackout/topo limbs with color-matched logos or solid limbs with black logos in premium 2026 colors, including BlackOut, Georgia Clay, Sandstorm, Wilderness, Tombstone, Bottomland, Realtree APX, and more.

The Hoyt Alpha AX-3 29 is a compact, balanced, forgiving bow that tunes faster, holds steadier, and shoots smoother than ever.
