Default In Pursuit of LIBERTY!!!

Well I finally got around to shooting the Bowtech Liberty yesterday after just drawing it back the other day. It was everything I expected it to be. A great feeling Bow. It draws nice and smooth and has a very solid back wall. Very minimal handshock, but what hand shock that comes from the bow disapates extremely fast. I still have a few other bows I want to shoot but right now the Liberty is at the top of my list. For a bow that is only 33 1/4" ata it sure shoots like a 36"+ ata bow. Ialso plan on shooting the Pro 40 with the freedom cam that my local shop has just to compare but that Liberty deffinitly lived up to my expectations. But now lies the problem of cashflow[:'(] So I might have to wait a little bit to get mine but I know it will be well worth it in the end. By the way How much is the Liberty going for in your area? They want around $658 at my local shop.

That price sounds pretty good!!! If I were you, I'd bust out that credit card right now!![8D] You've been a good boy,,, you know that you deserve the comfort and quiet shooting qualities of that Liberty[:-] It'll only take about 7 years to pay it off,, and by then you'll be ready for something new again[>:]

im not sure which one it was, either the extreme VFT or Patriot, or some other one. But, anyways, the store i work at is going to start carrying Bowtech after being a mathews and hoyt dealer. A guy had ordered a 90 pound bow to go to Africa, but he screwed his shoulder up, so now its for sell. They didnt tell me the pounage, and just told me to draw it back. I pulled it back and guessed it to be around 75-80 pounds. I about died when they told me it was on 87 pounds. It was the smoothest drawing bow ive ever felt. For me being an avid mathews fan, i may be breaking away to a Bowtech this season!

That would be the BowTech Extreme Samson VFT! That is a SERIOUS BOW!!!!!!!!! 80#-90#-100# draw weights. That bow will put down anything that walks, swims, crawls, or flies on this earth.....

Guys, you should have been at the shop yesterday while he was shooting that thing. He kept making these weird moaning sounds. [] I actually had to leave the range to leave him alone with the bow for a while.


I told him to tell the wife she had to sell off her car. Did you suggest that to her Chad?

Yeah Chris she didn't like the talk of selling her car. I might be going back down to the shop tonight if I get my truck back from the shop today. Not to buy it unfortunately but I think I want to shoot the Pro 40 they have down there just out of curiosity. If I want to buy the Liberty I'm gonna have to wait a while just don't have the cash flow now[:'(][:'(][:'(] Hey I heard those same sounds coming from your mouth muzzyman when you were shooting that new Hoyt, so much so I thought you found a new girlfriend Man I can't stop thinking about that Liberty though. It has to be the best shooting bow I have ever had in my hands!!!!!!

I don't impress real easy when it comes to bow. I will say that after shooting the liberty I was very impressed. If I had extra money laying around for a bow I would probably have one right now. It was very smooth on the draw, shock free and handled very well. Overall it's one impressive bow, and All this is coming from a Darton man!

We understand, and don't hold it against you.
The Liberty sure is one sweet shooter.
