Mathews Helium
Anybody bought one of these new bows yet? If so, what fo you think of them. Thinking about getting a new bow and was thinking of either the Z7 Extreme or the Helium,
|
Not personally but my friend got one and he loves it. He was previously a Bowtech owner and after he shot the Helium and compared it to the new Bowtech models, the bought the Helium.
|
Thanks for your input. I checked it out at the bow shop and really liked it. I have been shooting a Switchback XT since i bought it in 2005 and until now have not found a bow that I liked as much. Think I might have found one.

I bought the Helium bow and love it! It is QT,fast,light,accurate for me it is a awesome bow! my old bow was a mathews SQ2 so this is a major upgrade for me but well worth it cant wait till oct 1st!!
|
HelM didnt impress me much,nor does the any Z series...I do like the Monsters a bit though..I would shoot every bow your can get your hands on..This years model or last years etc etc..About 90% of all bow companies make a bow that is built as good as a Mathews is ..Search till you find the bow that picks you,not you picking the bow..If you go home at night an lose sleep,thinking of that bow in a positive way...Then you know ya found the one..At least that is how it happens with me...I have been shooting the same hunting bow for a year an a half or so,because I aint found one that picked me yet..I have tried about every model made in the past few years..Let the bow find you,but you have to the searching (sounds crazy I know:s5:

I can understand that. I have been shooting my Switchback XT since 2005 an have not found anything until now that I really liked. The Helium has a very good feel to me. I have not really looked at other Brands and Models. Checked out the Bowtechs the other day and was not too impressed.

i would shoot the bowtech insanity before buying the helium. if u do u will buy it and i shoot a hoyt. i have owned mathews and tuned the heli.bt hands down easy tuning and fast best shootn bow i know right now. i will shoot my hoyt one more year though
|
I shot the Helium and it was OK! Then I shot the New Elite Answer and that Bow blows away the Helium!!! What a sweet shooting Bow!!!!! If I could sell my 2011 Hoyt CRX32 today I would buy the Elite Answer PRONTO!!!! Before you buy the Helium shoot the Answer!!! WOW!!!!!!

Honestly I don't understand the hype with the Matthews bows. Not that they aren't any good - they truely are. But Matthews are great at advertising. They put a lot of stress on the Helium at 3 1/2 pounds, IBO speed of 332 and ATA of 30"and $959 MSRP.
I just picked up a Martin Exile for my cousin's son which has the following specs.: 3.4 lb, IBO 320, ATA 30.5", MSPR $639. I truly believe that you pay a couple hundred dollars just for the Matthews name. I have 3 Martin bows and they are fast, smooth, quiet, delivers zero hand shock or vibration, and is extremely accurate. And their warranty and customer service IMO is second to none. |
I have a Z7 that my wife got me for Xmas the first year this model came out, but I didn't hunt with it until this past season, but if I was in the market the Helium would be one bow I would purchase.....Going to sell my Switchback XT
