I've owned an MQ-1 for several years now, and I keep test-shooting all the new Mathews bows each year when they release them. To date, I haven't shot anything that makes me feel they've come out with something $500 better than the MQ-1. In fact, though I'm obviously no pro shooter, I haven't felt their new stuff was any better at all -- whether we were talking about plunking down an extra $500 or not.

Take the extra moolah you'd spend to "upgrade", and buy yourself a rangefinder, or a cresting machine, or some extra arrows, or some new camo, or ...
