Just wanted to thank everyone for all the advice here and follow up.. Today I purchased a 2011 Mission Venture with QAD HD rest, peep, some middle of the road 2 pin site with tritium pins (blanking on the brand now), and a dozen new carbon express arrows 328s with 100 grain heads and a new Tru Ball release. Draw length 26" and draw weight of 55lbs during the offseason and 60lbs during hunting season Shot a Z7, Mission Venture, and the Eliminator side by side and liked the Venture the best. The Z7 is a wonderful bow but for what I do (hunting deer and turkey) I think the Venture will do just fine and I couldn't see spending the extra coin. Hope I'm not disappointed in a few years. Right now I'm debating Rage broadheads vs Ultimate steel fixed blade in 100gr Thanks again....this is a great forum...Pics will eventually follow.
