The Liberty is much better balanced than the older Patriots. I am gonna see how it balances when I put my sight and rest on because it balanced well with nothing at all. I will say that this bow doesn't need much weight in the stabilizer as it does balance very well with nothing on it, plus, the bow is deadly quiet and shock-free with just the Hush Kit. I am sure that some other guys will ring in on this post about stabilizer combinations that they use on theirs.

Buck Magnet, excellent choice! Thumbs up on the Muzzy 100gr. 3 blade, I've taken all my bulls with the muzzy and they all went down quick. One shot double lung can't go wrong!

Buck, good choices. Just curious, what poundage are you shooting this thing at? Seems that the 7595's would be overspined with anything under 70lbs. I could be off though
Nice setup Buck, I've got almost the same accessories:
Copper John Pro 5 pin (.019)
Trophy Ridge Drop-Zone
Fletcher Tru Peep
27" 7595 GoldTips
Also picked up a 3 piece modular Sims Stabilizer and 2 Sims Limbsaver screw in knobs for the stabilizer.
I slept with the bow last night, and not because my beloved wife threw me out for spending more than I should have! She's awesome.........
Buck, what kind of fletching you have on your arrows? I just orders 5" shield cut barred feathers. I figure the broadheaed control will be worth it, especially with full left helical.
Congrats on the setup Buck Magnet. I've just got my Liberty set up with my old accessories for now, but plan on experimenting with some new toys as soon as our season is over. I'm keeping my NAP 3000 rest but plan on switching to a Copper John Pro III, a smaller tru peep and a new stabilizer of some sort.
Bowman 2213,
I felt like the Liberty was just a little bit top heavy, especially compared to the Justice which balanced nearly perfect, IMO. But the longer ata of the Liberty just felt a little more comfortable to me & the very slight top heavy issue wasn't really a concern. I currently use an 8" NAP shock blocker that I had on my previous bow. I think it's a little too much for this bow, but my groups open up when I shoot without it so it'll stay on for now.
Good choices buck! my buddy uses the deadnut's and was not happy with it he had a lot of problem's with his pinsite's I'm not knocking your choice. He's the only one I've heard complain about it .This is why I have decided to go with the Spott Hogg Real Deal.and I'm going to use a Whisker Biscuit arrow rest anda Stealth 8" Stabilizer I'm going to get the Bow Tech 2pc quiver and Easton ST Axis 400's for Arrow's .Good luck with your set-up and let us know what yo u think.
