Default 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! 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.

Jeff
