I wanted to buy it but I went with the bowtech rpm 360.  I wanted the shorter brace height.  And 100.7 ft lbs of KE.  This does look slick though.

What poundage and arrow are you shooting to get 100.7 pounds of ke

[DIYARCHERYJUNKIE]

im not.  It's what the company advertises.  I would assume they advertise the 360 speed and 100.7 lbs of ke based off 5 grains per inch at 70#...      I did see a you tube where the guy shoots 72 # 28.5 inch draw and 409 grains of arrow out of the 360 through a chrono and got 333 fps.  so my hunting sticks with bh fletches insert and knock should be around 450 grains.  I shoot an inch less than the video 27.5.  So just by considering the stats I should be around 300 fps.  Not sure how I would determine KE though or how much would be lost by getting my gear to hunting weight.

I really want to shoot one.  My peeps told me its s real shooter.

Nice, I think D-Rock just likes the name of the draw modules, "Rockmods".

I am super happy with my z7extreme and just can't get myself to pull the trigger on a dual cam split limb bow. But if they keep getting better like the Chill I might have to upgrade.  A couple more years and the technology will be worth the switch.  This one is getting pretty close though.

[D-Rock425]

I like it even better now.

I haven't shot one yet, but I hear that the "rockmods" make the back wall "rock solid".  The original chill had a squishy or spongy back wall and this one is supposed to be really solid, like a "rock".

Wow, that's only 20% shy of the .22 Long Rifle standard velocity   Smokin"!
