    Nice, when you get it, send pics! also if you can put your hunting jacket on and take some shots, Justin brought up a good point when I talked to him and said that I might need to get a bow sleeve.. I am going to do some experimenting when I get mine also.. I don't see it being an issue though

    Its an awesome bow for sure. Looks good, feels good and shoots good. Make sure to post a few pics when you get it!

    I think its funny how so many bashed the NoCam last year and the same people ended up buying it after shooting it. Same thing this year with the Halon.

    I agree, was intrigued with the No Cam and to be honest its super smooth, and I love mine, but what I find IMO is that the Halon is smoother than my HTR and also smoother than the HTX. I found the HTR and the HTX the same where the draw and feel is concerned but obviously the HTX is slightly heavier. I myself like a heavier bow, because I find for me its more stable.

    I shot the Halon 6 super nice draw. I have a HTR now love it hands down most accurate hunting bow I've had in the last 8 years. I'm going to hold off on a new Mathews I like the longer ATA.

    the halon is a super sweet bow I didn't buy the no cam cause it was to much like my heli m and I only shoot a 30 ata bow so thats the mane reason I didn't buy the no cam I sold my creed to buy the halon cause I never used it I always grab for the heli m its been my favorite bow till I shot this new halon now I'm waiting to get back to town to pick mine up and I'm selling my heli m now lol ill post picks of my halon 5 in a couple days when I get back to pick it up.
