Riot

Best bow ever

The all new Riot is the smoothest shooting bow I ever shot.I really love it.I am 13 years old and this bow will hold me for a very long time cause it is so adjustable. The only problem is that the silencers tend to creep up towards the cams which can cause derailing. The Mission Riot is still an AWESOME bow.

Great first bow

I bought this bow right when it came out. It is an awesome bow. I have shot a couple deer with it. It has a smooth draw so this bow is really good for anybody. I like how you don’t need a bow press to change the draw length so I can set it up for a kid on the fly and then for an adult too. The one bad thing I dont like is that it is kinda heavy and bulky for spot and stock long distances, but if you are a treestand hunter buy this bow…

It’s nice to see how far we as bow hunters have come. I just bought a Craze for my 12 year old and got myself a Riot. I will continue buying your product as long as the quality continues to be at the level that it is. I was really surprised at just how fast and accurate the bow is. Thinkin I just might have to go hunt me up a black bear. Then later this year take my son out and teaching him how to hunt moose. Thank you for your hard work and attention to detail. As long as you make this quality of your bows I’ll continue to purchase them.

I shoot for the West Wilkes Jr. Shooting team.  I’m 13 years old and I was shooting a PSE Chaos. I averaged around 170 and now that I’ve gotten a Mission Riot I’m averaging 195 out of 200. It is fast, quiet and smooth, it is the best bow I have shot. It is so much easier to pull than the Chaos.  I was pulling 41 lbs, which  was harder than pulling 45 lbs with the Riot.

I got the Riot for my birthday for my second bow season. I am drawing 55 pounds. This is by far a great bow for the cost.  I had great luck with it.

The Riot is awesome. It is a lot better than the old PSE that I had.

I got a Riot. I got it set up and shot it a few times. I love it compared to my old bow. It has a smooth draw and an awesome backwall.

I got the Riot for Christmas-  Awesome ! This bow is a great buy. I love the bow!
Mike Graf

This is a fantastic bow. I was looking for one that wouldn’t break the bank but was good, fast, durable, and something I could grow with as I get older. Man this bow shoots fast and accurate. Looking forward to taking  my first deer with it. Doesn’t get any better than this! Great job Mission Archery!!

Just bought a Riot after being out of archery for the last 20 yrs. The bow is just fantastic, grouping was tight after just a few adjustments. Have shot over a hundred arrows down range and the arm is not tired or sore.. Great Job Mission….

The best now I’ve ever bought!!! It’s smooth,quiet, and  shoots fast ! Everything you are looking for in a bow, the Riot has you covered!!! I shot the Bow Tech Assassin, Hoyt Charger, and many more but the Riot is the best bow for the money!! Can’t beat it!!!!

I am an exchange student from Mexico. I am 13 years old and came to Alaska 6 month ago.  I started  bow hunting and I just love it. I started with a Genesis bow, but it is just 20 pounds and I am ready for the next step.  I went to Sportsman warehouse and they showed me the Diamond Infinity Edge.  I was going to buy it for Christmas with all the money I will be getting for presents, but today I went to the archery range to practice.  I was looking at all the bows and I saw a great looking bow. I looked at the price and the  adjustability. I said to myself “This is the one”. It is a great looking bow I can set it to 45 pounds and a draw length of 27″. It is just a great bow, plus is a Mathews bow! That is awesome!

I’m 11 and I am shooting a Diamond edge. Ihate it it’s definetly NOT what I want. It only goes up to 29lbs andI plan on putting it on 40. It’s suprising how strong you get from carrying 50lb bags of deer corn and rice bran. I was at my camp watching deer hunting. The whole family shot a Mission , from the 8yr old, 10yr old, 18yr old, and the mom and dad. Once I saw it I was instantly hooked!!! I did my research and looking then I found it. I looked at all of them and once I saw the Riot I knew it was the one for me. I live in Lousianna and I’m getting a new bow for Christmas. I’m heading to Opelousas to get it sighted in and fitted for me!! I’ll be sure to write another review once I get it.

I just bought the Mission Riot .I got it too late for hunting this year but can’t wait to drop some swackers on some deer next fall. Thanks for a great product Mission. I’ve been lookin for a new bow that wouldn’t break the bank. Great bow for the price.

The Riot is my first Mission bow and its been great. I got it about a month ago. I shot a turkey with it at about 40 yards. Hopefully i’ll be posting the video soon. Its very accurate and quiet and well priced.

The mathews riot is a very good bow! Very quiet out of the box. Very easy to adjust. Also, the compatibility of the bow is very good!
Wade Abbott

I had a Fred bear bow for about ten years , I decided to upgrade to a new bow. I shot many bows and for the amount of money I spent on the bow it was well worth it. I shoot with a lot of guys at camp that use the Mathews extreme that they payed way to much for and I can shoot just as good or better than they can at all different yardages. To put it into a simple, I don t see myself buying another bow for many years . Someone hit the nail on the head with this one !
stephen vaughn

The Riot is my second mission bow, I started with the Menace. This is a great bow. I have mine in Lost Camo Pink. I used this in my first 3D shoot about a week after I bought this and took 8th place. With a little more practice I hope to take top honors.
Kyla Ingram

Just got the riot. It’s awesome! Incredibly fast, great group, accurate, and one of the smoothest bows I have ever shot. Compete with any bow on the market and has a good price tag on it!
Cameron Dominguez

By far the best and smoothest bow I’ve ever shot !

I just purchased a Mission Riot today (September 26, 2012), and after shooting it at my dealer’s indoor range, have to admit I owe an apology to several of the people submitting a review here for this awesome bow. I read more than one say that they had it zeroed in and hitting the bulls-eye in less than 10 minutes.

It only took two adjustments on my 20 yard sight pin, and then 3 arrows in the bulls-eye twice in a row. My dealer immediately suggested that I shoot at different places on the target, especially since the vanes were touching, or else he might need to sell me some new arrows. I was very pleased with the smooth draw cycle, lack of vibration, and the extreme quietness of this bow. This is the first bow that I’ve ever been able to comfortably draw 70 lbs., and draw repeatedly with little to no fatigue at all. I traded in a Bear Anarchy bow that cost more than twice what this bow cost, and basically shot half as well (IMHO). Pulling the Riot at 70 lbs. basically feels as easy as pulling the Anarchy at 55 lbs., and in my opinion is a much smoother bow in every regard. I realize that the Anarchy is rated at 340 IBO speed, but shooting it at 55 lbs. is not nearly as fast as shooting the Riot at 70 lbs. with only a 310 IBO speed rating. I’ve now set my 30 and 40 yard pins, and when time allows will set my 50 and 60 yard pins. Where I’m hunting 40 yards would be a long shot, but will set the 50 and 60 pins for 3D shoots.

Mission Archery….you’ve definitely hit one out of the park with the Mission Riot bow. I will be a loyal Mission customer for years to come.

I quit bowhunting 5 yrs ago and sold all i had, Went to the local Pro shop today and shot the RIOT, Will be picking the bow up this weekend, Time to start again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Doug Mcmullen

Been shooting my Riot for a month and a half and still cant believe how smooth,shockfree,and accurate this bow is,plus its adjustability and low price you CANNOT go wrong! I now have the confidence in myself and the Mission Riot for anything that stands a little too long in my lanes!Thanks Mission Archery. 2Doggs

Today I just bought the Riot by Mission, I also added the Mission Kill 2 Package to it. Before I even left the store I was putting 3 down the range all with in a 3 in circle. This I my first bow and I could not have asked for better starter and now I can work on my skills and get the thrill of taking down a monster up-close. So far a 5 star bow , the price was well in my budget of 700 out the door ready to go hunting.
Eric Edwards

I’ve bought the Riot bow for my son. It’s really a sensational bow. For this price can you get a bow like the more costlier bows. My son like it, too. I hope, that he will won several title with it as with recurve bow earlier.
László Dr. Németh

Its the first compound i’ve ever owned and love it. Super quiet and light. Will hand it down to the kids because its that short and i can lower the lbs of draw for them to shoot.
