New Bowtech Liberty!!
 
I ordered a new Liberty a few day ago (I can hardly wait!!) and now I get to outfit it with all new goodies. I'm curious what all you Liberty owners have on yours for rests, quivers,and stabilizers. I hear that me arrow rests wont adjust over far enough because of the riser thickness. I want to put on a new fall away rest, I had a NAP on my previous bow and had some problem with the rest falling fast enough in really cold weather, and am most interested in what to do about a rest. Also what quivers do you like. My other bow is a Mathews and I had a Mathews Arrow web quiver on it, and now I am open for suggestions.
Thats right another Mathews owner switching to Bowtech!!!
Thanks for your help!

Bear Guy,

You made a wise choice on the Liberty.......IMO the finest bow in it's class for 2004 (maybe to date?)
Here's how I have mine set-up.

Spot-Hogg "Real deal"
APA Ultimate "Twister" rest
Stealth 6" stabilizer
Tru-Peep "Super Hunter"
Loop around 2 tied in nock sets

I don't use a bow mounted quiver.......hate them.[:'(]

Shooting a Scott rhino release and probably Easton Axis 340's w/ 4" feathers and 100gr Rocket Sidewinders or NAP Scorpion heads.
If not the Axis then A/C/C 360's

Congratulations on the new bow. It is one sweet shooter. The Trophy Taker Shaky Hunter seems to be the most popular rest setup that I have noticed so far.

BearGuy-

As it turns out, I ended up with a 6" 10z. I thought Jerry made odd sizes, but it has to be either 4 or 6". I just got off the phone with him a few hours ago. I thought of getting a 5" primarily just to be different. But also, my bow balances pretty good w/o one, so I thought a little shorter and lighter may be better. It was a toss up between 4 and 6. But b/c the 6 was standard, it was a little cheaper than a custom.

Thanks for the reply.
I just picked up a new 6" stealth today at Cabela's. Now the only thing I need is my new bow!:D It should be here in a few days I guess!
Again Thanks

I got mine about a week and a half ago. I put a trophy taker rest on, and an Impact trio sight. The rest is great wisper quiet. The sight is the brightest sight I've ever seen. Its like staring into the sun!
For the quiver I chose a 5 arrow alpine soft-loc , very nice. I'm using a straight shot stabilizer right now, but am thinking of ordering a stealth.
Congrats on the new bow and have a blast with it.

We finally got a BowTech dealer in my area and I rushed in and ordered a new Liberty. After it arrived it didn't take long to set it up. Trophy Ridge Drop Zone rest, Trophy Ridge Guide Series Matrix Sight, String Loop, and Red Hawk peep sight. The smoothest bow I have ever shot. I just about Robin Hooded my carbon arrow so it was time to quit. Love that bow.

RE: New Bowtech Liberty!!
 
Thanks to everyone that replied. I got my new Liberty a few weeks ago and set it up with a Drop Zone rest (which I just love:)) 6" Stealth stabilizer, and Tru Glo sights. I still haven't picked up a quiver for it yet, waiting to pick out something. But I just love this bow. Great shooter, and a great feel in the hand. And everybody comments on how they can't believe how quiet it is.
Thanks again.

RE: New Bowtech Liberty!!
 
Glad to hear you like it but i think you should love it . I put the MZE arrow rest on my dually ,it was very easy to put on and set up ,I've had other drop away's but i think this is the best of the one's that I've had .
I'll tell you Jerry sure has sold a lot of his Stealth Stabilizer's on this forum ,I don't think I've gone a week without someone new that just picked up their new Stealth.I know you'll like the stabilizer it's the best I've used .
