[Bacwoods]

An opinions on the Mission line of bows, specifically the Riot?

I have one, its my first bow i like it a lot.

Know a few people that have it, all of them like it a lot. I also shoot a Mission (Ballistic) and I like it as well. Think their line of bows are a great value

My co-worker has one. She is 30yrs old avg biuld and pulls maybe 35lbs. She loves it smooth draw nice back wall and very broad adjustablility on draw length and weight;15-70lbs and 19"-30". msrp around $399. Made by Mathews pretty good deal.

I don't have the riot. However, I got the X3 the first year the Mission line of bows came out. It was my first bow. I got it in 2006 or 2007 and I am still using it today. So far it has worked great. I have had zero issues with it and I shot two deer with it this year. It is still a tack driver for me. Whenever I get a new bow, I will look heavily at the Mission line of bows again. I think they are a great bang for your buck.

I had the mission endeavor for 3 years with 0 problems out if it.

I've got the 2012 Venture. This is my first bow. I really like it. My lower limb has a noticeble twist to it that I need to bring back and get addressed. Other than that, it still shoots great from what I can tell (BH are still hitting where the FPs are.)

I have a Mission Riot and like it a lot. I have had it 2 years and no problems so far. Has a lifetime warranty, so if something major does go wrong it should be covered.

I have the Riot. Its my first bow. I love the bow. Got my first bow kill this past season with it. My son just bought the Blaze. Picking it up from the shop this week. Its a really nice bow.

My thoughts on the Riot are:
Great first bow for man, woman or older kid. The ease of adjustability makes it a perfect fit for everyone.
Slightly dissapointed in speed with my shorter draw length. I have a 27" draw and set for 60lb and it shoots 238fps. That may be the case with other bows as well. I don't know as its the only bow I've owned.
It has a pretty smooth draw and is easy to hold that draw.
Fairly quiet as well.
Good price and not a single problem in the 2 years I have had it.
Overall very happy with it and would recommend it especially if for a first bow. It will probably suit me fine for several more years before I upgrade eventually

Well made entry level/ mid grade bows at an affordable price for most people. Don't hear of many people complaining about Mission bows. They usually get more praise because people are suprised at how well they shoot for the price.

Couldn't have said it better myself. For the money, they are tough to beat. Recently, on my new bow purchase it came down to a Mission Ballistic, Mathews Chill R, and the Bowtech Experience. The Experience won,but was mightily impressed with Mission.
