I bought the heli m, I'm really happy with the bow love the way it shoots but i did put a focus grip on it. i like the wood one but i felt it had alot of torque in the grip. Way better with new grip. (for me) Also try the z7 magnum. that is a great bow and was my 2nd choice shoots like the helim but maybe a little more stable. give it a shot.

I shot both and went from a Hoyt to the Mathews for the simple fact you described of the smoothness feeling.  The Mathews had less vibration and seemed quieter.  Both are great bows & you will be happier with either.  Having had a Hoyt  the Mathews felt like I was getting a better upgrade for my money. The new Hoyt felt a lot like my old one.  Mike

thats odd, cause the vector 32 was much smoother then any bow for 2012 as tested by outdoor life, with machines.. not by "feel" I love mine.

If I was in the market for a new bow, I'd shoot as many as I could and choose the one I liked best.  Tops on my list to shoot, based on specs, would be the PSE DNA.
