    No pics on the phone... But I literally have no negatives. Light weight, very very quiet, fast, and very small which I like.

    What he said! Heli-M is a bad@SS bow IMO. I love mine.

    Here is a few pics.

    I'm not a direct owner of the bow, but my neighbor and my best friend are both HeliM owners and let me tell you, that bow just doesn't seem to have any flaws. I've shot that bow over and over. I'm a 28" draw and shoot 70#. My neighbor shoots 65# and 29" and it felt just as smooth as what I'm used to and my best friend shoots a 29.5" and 70# and it shoots the same.

    I'm probably going to be getting a HeliM in about 5-6 weeks. It just depends on how much I can get out of my Element, but my question to other Element shooters is why not go for the HeliM? The HeliM is smoother, faster, lighter and cheaper. I've been talking about going to Mathews for about 3 years and when I do, I know I'll never go back.

    I love mine, it is light, smooth, plenty fast, forgiving and accurate. I have had more "hoods" with it in the last three months than I have had with all my other bows combined. Had my longest of 45 yards last week. The only negative I can think of is that it may be just a little too lite. I had to change out my stokerized stab for a 10" B-stinger with some weight on the end to settle it down for 60+ yard shots. Since I put the stinger on there it has really settled that bow down. I love it......Blake

    I have had my bow since chistmas and absolutly love it. I went from an older PSE Nova to the Heli-m. I had the nova for 10 years or longer and never robin hooded. Got the Heli-m and did it with in the first 20 shots.

    Just awesome.

    I picked up the HeliM at my dealer. Man what a light bow.

    Now that that's settled; how about the specs on the PVC target stand????

    Don't go with 1 1/2 pvc, these newer bag targets are too heavy for it, go with 2" and that should help. I honestly don't remember what the dimensions are as I just went to home depot and picked up enough parts to do it. I think it is around 4 feet tall and 3 feet wide.....Blake
