Thats really to bad. Ive heard a few of the newer Matthews are having cam malfunctions. I have been shooting the Carbon Element RKT by Hoyt and no problems.

the shop talked to mathews today and my bow is on its way with a new riser and cams. I should have it in a couple days. Hopefully its good to go this time.

If you have a problem again I would ask em to replace with z7 extreme.  Very good bow I think.  I have zero problems with mine and very happy.
MAGA!  Again..

I got my bow back the other day from mathews. Kinda disappointed. They put a new riser on the bow but left the bad cam on it when they sent it back! I'm glad my shop had a extra cam at my draw length so they switched it out. I got it all tuned in and shooting great now! I just hope it lasts for me this time. I shot it through a chronograph and its shooting 297fps with a 30in at  65lbs. I'm really happy with it now. I'm back to stackin arrows!

This really makes me reconsider wanting to get a helim. That was my first concern when I saw the weight cut but my shop said they havent had any issues with them. Ill probably just go with the extreme. Ive shot every single bow in the shop and the mathews just seem to be a much better fit and smoother draw for me than any other bow.

My buddy got a helim also just after i did and hasent had any problems with it. I dont know for sure but i kinda think the bow shop had a little to do with it. They keep messing with stuff all the time and i have a feeling that they helped contribute to some of my problems i had. I love the bow and am cant wait to get hunting with it.

I would have to agree with you. I have had my helim for a few months now and have had no problems. I love how it shoots. Good luck this season.
