    Just looking for opinions. I can get either of two bows for $500.00.

    2011 Mathews Z7 with a Cobra single pin adjustable sight, No rest or Quiver

    Or

    2014 Mission Blaze Has a drop away rest and a 4 pin sight.

    Do you feel either of them a good deal?

    Thanks so much for your help :)

    Z7 hands down. I've never shot the Blaze but you can't go wrong with the Z7. I got mine when they first came out and have never looked back.

    My husband got a Z7 in 2012 - he doesn't want a new bow because he loves it.

    I have a Mission series (Craze) - which I like, but I'm not sure about the Blaze.

    I had the blaze and loved it but you can't go wrong with a z7. The z7 is smoother and overall easier to shoot. If you think the extra 7 fps is worth losing that then go with the blaze.
