They could re-release any bow they have made in the last 5 years and it would be better than the Helium, except maybe the Reezen.

I am between getting the z7 extreme or waiting for the new Mathews. The z7 extreme discontinues the day the new Mathews comes out.

I would wait and shoot all of them, you can allways find a extreme used if thats what you really wanted.

I've been shooting my Mathews for several years looking to up grade maybe in a year or two. What was wrong with the Heli-m model? Anyone shot it?

Heli-m is okay, over-hyped but that is typical for all new bows. I have some issues with the overall design, the flimsy riser is what turned me off. Not a huge fan of the draw cycle. Was shooting one and pinched a nerve in my shoulder has never happened before and has not happened again shooting any other bows. I gave it a decent shot as I was trying everything out shopping for my new bow. I was a Mathews guy but they kind of just lost me. I look forward to seeing their new line-up.

Never shot the helium. Shoot switchback and haven't looked back. I too like the hand me downs.

Switchback probably the all time greatest bow they ever made.

I personally thought the helium draw was terrible and stiff...and that's coming from a speed bow dual cam guy

Agree 100%, I personally think the Monster is the best bow Mathews has out right now.

whats wrong with the reezen? i know the draw is not as smooth as my pse was, but it slings sticks faster than most.
hope the new line up has the option to come with carbon fiber scheme like heli-m so i can have a cool looking bow to hold in the stand while watching the deer play 100yds away

Come on it is not that bad. Mathews puts out a truely great bow every 4 or 5 years. They got to hit it this year, because from what all I hear the last homerun they had was the switchback.
