You lucky dog, I too have bought a Switchbak, its on layaway and being left handed I am still waiting for Mathews to ship the new left hand bows out. I have got to shoot a right handed Swithcback and all I can say is WOW, WOW WOW I dare you to close your eyes and shoot it. You almost don't know if the bow if the bow shot or not. Its that smooth, felt bettet than any bow I have ever shot. I can't wait for mine.

I'm pretty pumped.This is the first new bow I have ever bought.
I shot the SB last weekend,along with some top end parkers,the Hoyt Ultra Tec and the X-tech,PSE Primos and the Reflex Grizzly.
All were good bows I shot the Mathews last and I was just amazed I went WOW!.I wasn't sold yet though I wanted to shoot some of the new Bow-Techs,I shot one called Old glory and Patriot.Then I shot the SB still like the Mathews,went to a pro shop in GreatFalls and shot some Martins and tried the hoyts again.

It came down to the Hoyt and the Mathews,I just chose the SB cause of the fit and man it is quiet.
I put some time in looking cause I will shoot this bow for probaly the next 5-6 years.
