    With season closing or closed in most areas can we get some updated info on the creed xs? How do you like it after hunting with it all season? I am actually in the market now trying to decide if I should buy now or wait until the fully lost xs comes out. That's if it even does. You thoughts on if you think they will bring back the fully lost in the creed xs

    I shot the creed xs today. It wasn't do me. At the end of the draw cycle it got stiff then dumped into the back wall. It's shot pretty good but I didn't like that draw cycle at all. The chillr on the other hand is the best bow I've shot in a long time. I will have one.

    I haven't shot the ChillR...but the regular one and I liked it a lot. I didn't care all the much for the Creed XS..just too short for me. I like a 30" to 32" ATA bows best. To me the best bow Mathews has ever made is the Heli-m. Now I love that bow for a single cam.

    I've never shot the helim. But everyone that I've talked to days the same as you. Best mathews ever. Anyways, I wasn't a fan of the creed xs. To short and I didn't like the draw cycle at all. But alot of people seem to like it. It just goes to show that you can't pick a bow by what everyone else likes. You must shoot them for yourself.

    Exactly...lol. I'm not a Mathews guy, but if I bought one it would be the Heli-m since their still making it. My hunting buddy has one and its so smooth. Easy to shoot and the Helim cam on it has a great draw cycle. I say get what you like best...for me, its PSE & Hoyt. But as far as Mathews...I truly believe "for me" The Heli-m is one sweet bow.

    Are you suggesting that the '14 Mathews are better than the new Hoyts? Or the other way around?
