What's yall's opinion on the Mathews Chill? I shot a creed yesterday and it was just as I read about it. Hard hitter. Kinda liked it. Had to make sure I held it against the back wall. It was a 28" draw length. My SBXT and Z7 Mag are 28.5".

I don't like the creed. Chill is ok, chill r with rock mode is sweet. Halon shoots better than any of them except the bow you've already got.

Of course, this is all "to me". You may love one that I hate, shooting them yourself is the best bet.

Nothing wrong with any of them. I like the Creed a little better than the Chill R. Wound up with a new HTX this year because it drew smoother to me than the Halon. I like the regular Switchback, but never got along too well with the SBXT. The LX and Outback are my least favorites. I hate the way the cam feels on them.

Shoots great. Got it set on 26" pulling 62#. I haven't chrono'd it and probably won't. I'm using the same sight tape I had on my Chill R.

I've been shooting a chill today. 28" at 64lbs. Shoulder is burning. I like the way it feels ok but cant get it paper tuned. Belongs to a guy at work.

I really like my Chill R with Roc Mods. I can't speak for the other bows listed above.

I have two Chill-X's and love them. Both have 60lbs limbs and a 30" dl. I'll be hunting with those for a few more years. IMO its just as good as my Switchback was if not better.

I like my Chill R better than my SBXT.
