Nubo, I have a Liberty ordered. Got a trophy taker I plan to put on. Your post was very interesting, but wouldn't it have to be attached below, not above. On the down cable, it would just take the slack out of the rope. Am I screwed up on this? On a different subject I wonder if my Spot Hogg real deal will adjust enough to the left. It was almost as far as it would go when I had it on the LX. I have a Hogg it. I think it might work. Might have to switch them. I guess this should have been on different posts. Thanks

Lefse.......The Spot-Hogg "Real Deal" on my Liberty is sitting with the pins right on centershot and I still have about 3/8" of left adjustment left. Unless you have some real whacky arrow tune you should have no problem at all with the "Real Deal".

Lefse! I go up for the simple reason is that on the down stroke it pulls the string on the down stroke past the rest. If the string is above you get a rolling effect. And I don't think you'll get the same from pulling from the bottom. It's the rolling motion that makes this set-up work the best.I'm not saying that it doesn't work from the bottom ,this is just the way I set mine up and it work's flawlessly.

I had some pretty funky arrow flight when I first up set my TT. A few things I found were, timing and nock pinch, I put a couple of tied on nocks inside my loop and haven't had any problems at all. By the way are you shooting cockfeather up? When I started shooting c/up it really made a big diff. It takes some time to get it timed right but IMO it's well worth it.

Nubo, I was checking this on the LX. The down cable only moves about 1 1/2 inch. So it would only pull it down to even with the rest. But it evidently works on the Liberty with cable guard. Thanks for the reply.

Lefse when I draw my bow it only moves about the 1"1/2as yours does but when it's even with the arrow rest that is when the flipper comes up.T rust me this does work.When I just read your first post I had to check it and you are correct .

P.S. I have my trophy taker on my Golden Eagle Splitfire.I'm not putting one on my new BT Pat D/C because I like to try all kind's of new equipment not because I don't like it ,because I do swear by the Trophy Taker they're a great drop away.

Nubo, I can see that that could work on your bow with a sliding cable guard. On my LX that has roller guard, cables don't move back, just down. Unless I am really missing something, it would just put slack in it to pull it down to even with the rest. Will see if it will work that way on the Liberty. Ordered the Liberty Dec 19th. Wonder how long it took these other guys to get theirs. I was told middle to last part of January. Lefse
