I loved my z7. Just ordered another off ebay. Thinking about possibly buying a heli-m and selling the one I like the least. How does the heli-m compare? Any other Mathews i should try? I liked the z7 because it was so light and short and quick.

They are both very similar. The Heli-m will be lighter and have a little more solid back wall due to having a draw stop on the cam.

I had one and hated it....one of my all time least favorite bows. Part of the issue I had was just that I would torque it a lot and that ain't the bows fault. Still though, I couldn't get rid of it fast enough.

You are doing yourself a dis-service not to shoot the halon though.

Love my Heli-m. By far the sweetest bow I've ever owned.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

I've had the original mathews solo cam(early 90s), a switchback xt, a z7 extreme, heli-m, a monster 6, a triumph and a z2. The switchback was the best shooter to me with the heli-m being second.

Thanks slug gun for the reply. I ordered me a 29 inch cam tonight and a cheap drop away rest off Amazon to try for a few days until the rest I am buying from a member here arrives. I can already tell I like the weight and feel of this bow a lot!

How does the current "z" series bow (I don't remember, z3 or z9?) compare to the original z7 in a nut shell?

Keep an eye on the strings behind the reverse assist roller guard. If you shoot a lot it will mess the serving up. It did it on my z7 and heli-m. It takes a lot of shots to mess it up though.

I've never had any serving wear in that area.
