    man...thats a tough one. I would for sure try out every bow you can and then decide. It really is a personal choice. I shoot Mathews Z-7. Its a good quality bow and kills stuff. Ive learned long ago that you have to shoot them. you will know. ALso go to 3 different bow shops. Have fun!!

        That's the worst part you can't find one that deals all of them

          I have a HeliM and I love it. They might be a little bit harder to find because its last years bow. Out of the Creed and Chill, I liked the Chill better.

            Let the bow choose you!

            Shoot as many as you can and then make your decision. I went intending on buying the new Creed or Chill. I shot the PSE Omen and Evo, Hoyt Carbon Element, Bowtech Insanity CPX, Mathews Creed & Monster Chill. I ended up with a Monster MR6 and would have never thought I liked it until I shot it.

              Agree. I say shoot several different brands. I loved the Hoyt but ended up settling on the Mathews Heli-M.
              Have a friend that shoots an Elite. Never shot one but would like to. You have to go in with an open mind on brands/models, imo. You wont be disappointed in one that fits you well and you will shoot better too. My .02.

              But the Heli-M is awesome.

                whichever one you can afford and feels good shooting. Let it talk to you and it will treat you right!

                  Do the research on them all, watch countless youtube videos, google them, then go in store and shoot every one of them for yourself. Then you decide which one screamed "BUY ME" the loudest!!! My choice would be the creed though!!

                    i just bought the chill and really like it so far. i was amazed at how smooth it draws and shoots for having such big cams. the only problem i have noticed is that the cables are so close to the arrow that the fletchings will hit them, and if i turn them so they clear the cables the hit my rest.

                      Havent shot creed but held one, seemed real top heavy. Shot zxt and chill. Both nice bows, zxt felt better. Going to shot the invasion, drive, and revenge today. Also gonna shoot zxt some more. U should look at the mission ballistic also. Also shot elite hunter, didnt like the grip at all. Gonna shoot hoyt charger also.

                          Shot them all I felt best with the Creed seemed to have the smoothest draw, even smoother than my Z7x. Now if I can only save up....

                            Keep an open mind and try and shoot as many different bows as you can. The best one for you will scream at you when you find it.

                              I personally don't like any single cam Mathews bows right now. I was disappointed when they didn't come out with a single cam bow faster then the reezen 6.5. Instead of making them faster, they got slower what ever happened to "catch us if you can " lol
                              I shot all the new bows creed, heli, chill and several monsters, I ended up liking the bowtech insanity cpx, keep in mind I am not a speed freak I just shoot a heavy arrow (600 grains) and would like a bow that will boost my kenetic energy. I currently shoot a z7 2009 model and love it but I want more kenetics .
                              I am a Mathews guy always have been, right now I am not sure if to wait until November to see what Mathews releases or just go with that bowtech ( don't really like "bowtech" ) I have always been used to a Mathews so it's a little change, BUT CHANGE NEVER HURTS..
