Post First Bow

Looking to getting into bowhunting and getting first bow. Ive shot bear, bow tech, quest, diamond and mission at various places and I think I've settled on mission from trophy book archery in spruce grove. Was wondering what you guys thought of the ballistic vs blaze. I shot the ballistic, riot and craze and liked the ballistic the best and never thought to try the blaze as it was 100 more for what seemed like very little. but maybe I'm wrong? Thanks

Don't know much about either bow but I am sure they are quite capable of doing the job for you. Shoot both head to head and pick the one that feels best to you. confidence in your equipment is a great start to being successful at archery/bowhunting.

Could be a good bow choice but probably a bad purchase location! If you are set on a Mathews I would go see Lawrence at Accurate Archery. He also has Hoyt and Prime lines to test out.

Shot them all and for the money the Ballistic is a shooter and would be my choice of those...

As mentioned above...shop around...price is important... but service is as huge as choice...
