    I bought my mission ballistic because it is a great bow with zero hand shock. And it's IBO is 330 fps. I love it. Its only $499. Very affordable.

    I shot it at the ATA Show. It's pretty awesome. The top three bows that I shot at the ATA, IMO, were the Motive 6, Elite Hunter and the PSE Dream Season DNA.

    Here's the video my interview with Bear introducing the Motive 6.

    I shoot Bear, I love Bear. In my opinion, its the best performing bow on the market right now. There is no other bow that is as light as the motive 6, or shoots as fast. I think you would be crazy not to go shoot it and get a real feel. And just a personal opinion, Bear is by far the friendliest and most helpful company in the outdoor market today. I have nothing but good things to say about this great company.

    My thoughts on it, Fast, Holds decent, but it does wanna just yank your shoulder right out of the socket. It does have its positives and negatives!

    Mathews heli-m 3.5 pounds, motive 6 4 pounds

    PSE omen max 366 FPS, motive 6 350 FPS both of those statements were inaccurate

    shooting one this year. I havent shot it to much yet but so far so good. the valley in mine is a little small but I hear you can tune it to have a bigger one but will lose some fps. ill try to do a little review on it in the near future.

    thinking he ment of combination of speed and weight. which he would be kind if right. only other bow that is lighter and shoots faster is the dna. my buddy just shot the dna as he is in the maket for a new bow. he thought it was like pulling a mack truck.

    When I say "On the market" I am referring to bows that just came out, 2013. The Heli-m is not a 2013 bow, and as far as the PSE Omen pro is concerned it weighs 4.3lbs. So going along with headstrong below, it is the fastest shooting bow for the weight that is ON THE MARKET today. I appreciate your opinion though guys, sorry if i was not clear my first time around.
