    Chill. O own the helium and do love it. That being said it's very light. Chill would b a little more forgiving.

    I know they are older but I still hunt with a Heli-M. I bought it new the end of id say 2013 season. I have replaced the string and cables due to a mishap at the bowsmiths while installing a new peep. It shoots great. I have a cheap 5 pin trophy ridge sight on it and shoot out to 60+ yards often practicing. The grouping out that far will shoot the fletches off. id like to run a single or dual pin adjustable and push it out to 100 yards for practice and to have range to Elk and caribou hunt with my friends in Alaska .

    I run a single pin on my helium. It helped my distance shooting tremendously. I shoot accuratly out to 60 yds and can shoot up to 80 which I'm not very good at. Only reason I choose chill over the helium is bc it is heavier which helps with stabilization. The helium is a very light bow which I choose bc I shoot with a quiver on. I'm now looking at a stoker hd ss1 side stabilizer to run with my front stabilizer for add weight to help with steadiness. It also will help with the balance. Both are great bows and will shoot great. I also upgraded my stabilizer this week from 5 oz to 8 oz.
