I have a Matthews Outback that is about 10-12 years old. Have they improved over this bow? Yes, but not the point where I'd dish out $1100-1500 to chase a few feet per second. With a 55# draw weight it shoots my arrows at 270fps. I've never not had an arrow blow completely through a deer. Most times sticking into the ground behind it.
The biggest improvement I see is the noise. I set my daughter up with a Mission Craze and it's VERY quite.
