Thanks for your feedback, @Steve1662, @bpctcb and @Firestone - much appreciated! Sounds like either bow would be a good, adjustable, grow-with-you starter option. Thanks!
Thanks, Ajax2744.
Any experience with the Mission Switch (by Matthews)? Seems like it might also be highly adjustable and a good, grow-with-you entry-level bow at a comparable price point. In your mind, what might distinguish these two (Mission Switch and the Diamond Edge)?
Seems like the Mission Switch (by Matthews) gets some good reviews for a fully adjustable, grow with you, entry-level bow. (link to another Rokslide thread where these two bows are mentioned)
Has anyone here done a side-by-side comparison of these two? Pros and cons of each? Any clear winner...
Thanks. I've liked what I've read on the Vortex Vipers...just don't find (m)any used ones in the <$350 price range of my budget. Looks like the Vortex Diamondbacks are in that price point, though. From all I've read through, it seems like the Maven C1s and Vortex Diamonbacks are both in that...

I forgot to mention that Vortex glass keeps coming up in these same discussions with friends about their recommended bins, too. And both the Mavens and Vortex appear in multiple of Audubon's gear review recommendation categories, too.
I am in a similar boat - looking for a good pair of bins for 350 or less. I've talked to a lot of hunter and birder friends about their choices and the Mavenbuilts keep coming up. Audubon wrote up a nice bino review piece with recommendations for a variety of price-range categories. You
