I'll be waiting for his reply. I am really contemplating buying this bow. Are you happy with it? I don't tree stand hunt right now or plan on it and wonder it will be as forgiving as the Liberty. What do you think? Is it too short? Sorry for all the questions but I'm fairly new to all this and am trying to get all the info I can.
Greg.

The bad news:

I have not chronographed either of the two new Bowtechs yet.

The good news:

I will chronograph both of them tomorrow...weather permitting. I will try to throw a heavy aluminum on there along with my typical 430 grain Beman and a lighter Carbon Express if I can find one that is not damaged.

xtremetj, I was shooting a Mighty Mite and Justice side by side today. Both bows shot very tight groups for me. I now have to re-fletch some arrows. At 20 yds it was a slaughter. At 30 yds I could keep them in the 5 ring on a 5 spot target. Very impressive, given the short ATA. A little slower but, I liked the Justice better. So now I have to buy one.

I did have chance to shoot both the Liberty and the Might Mite through my chronograph today....and I came to one very good conclusion. I need a new chronograph. I don't know if it is the cold weather or what but I remember the same thing happening last year. The speeds were about 20 fps slower than what I expected them to be.

So, do I go with the typical style chrono that I have been using or should I invest in a radarchron as they are becoming more popular??
