RE: Mission archery?
I shot the Mission Journey, mathews S2 and DXT side by side in a shop a couple weeks ago.
For what it is worth the S2 (for me) felt the best of the 3, followed by the DXT then the Journey, the DXT feeling about the same except the DXT felt a bit faster and it was a lot lighter.
Now the Journey compared to my current bow (Hoyt magnetec) it would be a no brainer, but compared to the Mathews offerings it (for me, once again) wasn't quite in the same league.
Now for whoever said this is basically a switchback XT w/o the roller, well I just went to the Mission website and they now have a bow called the Buckmaster which looks just like the Journey except instead of the sliding cable guard it has a roller.......no price though......
