I always thought these styles looked really cool.
I wouldnt mind picking up a crossbow when I get a job for coyote hunting..

I shot one like that at the ATA show a few years back.  It was SWEET!!!  I was really tempted to get one to hunt antelope in WY with.  If I could only figure out how to get one without taking a third mortgage on the house :o
Jeesh really that spendy eh? Wouldn't justify hunting coyotes with then lol.
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.

With that short ATA and fat grip I almost thought it was a Mathews. :chuckle:

HAHAHA!
Now thats funny right there I dont care who you are!


I played around with a Liberty a few years back. I could stack arrows with it at 20 yards but it was also VERY easy to get a flyer if I wanted to... I wouldnt call it forgiving, and I dont think anyone will be stacking arrows with it at 100 yards any time soon :chuckle:

I'm sure if they only made a double hole peep for it everyone would be stacking arrows at 100 yards with it  ;)
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

The double peep thing doesn't work right?  It looks way goofy to me.

I mean in theory it "works" but you have no anchor point so you aren't going to be very consistent..

Just watch the video - the thing is awesome :chuckle:

I've been asked dozens of times to make one.  Not going to happen.  If it costs me business  :dunno: so be it.  I expect there will be Youtubers that talk about how freakin' awesome it is.  Just like most internet experts.  But, we aren't much into the gimmick game just to make money.  If I thought it was better we would make it.  I have a hard enough time rationalizing selling pink, red and green peep sights which are horrible IMO.  But at least the foundation of our Super-Deuce 38 peep is proven reliable.

WRONG!!
If you peep color matches your wrist sling you are guaranteed to be more accurate!
Who cares if your bright colored peep puts of a horrible glare!  :chuckle:

Have shot, sold, and set up a few of the Liberty's. agree on the forgiveness, not very good! And very jumpy at the shot. Nothing more then a gimmicky bow. No longer carry them for that reason. Double peep does work. Have shot a double set- up for the last 3 years on novelty 3-d courses. On on a Z7, lately on my Chill. Use a 3/16" RAD with a Tommy Hogg for 0-100 yards, then above it set a 1/4" RAD starting from 110-200 yards. Takes some practice learning how to drop the anchor and still stay fairly secure, but can keep the shots in the heart/ lung on a McKenzie goat 75% of the time at 200 yards. Wins a few s $'s when a few of us are shooting for money!
That Sword is more important than the Shield!

Lol, I'm not saying I haven't talked about setting one up haha
I can get 150 out of a target setup which isn't always enough for the distance shoots...
I couldn't imagine hunting with 2 peeps on my string though lol
