    Well guys,

    I did it, I finally got my first bow! I went to a local bow shop, and got all setup. As you may have guessed from the title, I bought a Mission Mathews Riot.

    I've shot it quite a bit today, and it feels good. I was grouping about 3" at 30 yards, and about 3.5" at 40 yards. The bow is setup with a 30.5" DL & 50 lbs DW. It feels really light, so I might adjust it up to 60-65 lbs.

    TONS of fun, I believe I'm addicted.

    Thanks! I'm crazy about it already, and I've had it for less than 12 hours. I can't wait to get some broadheads and get into the woods.

    Thanks! I hope to get a deer with it this year.

    Thanks! I'm glad to hear I made a good choice.

    Thanks man! Enjoy your bow as well. ;)

    Good luck this season everyone.

    My old bow was a mission & it was a solid bow. I killed several deer with it.
