Title: Getting a new Liberty bow, getting excited!!!
Post by: sightsee on March 04, 2017, 01:09:00 AM
I've been a real tight wad for several years now and it's paying off quite nicely. Time to reward myself with something that won't wipe out my bank account and bring a smile to my face.... OK - I'm hyperventilating for my new Liberty longbow, Chief model in a 62", 52 lbs @ 29" draw. Should be perfect on cold blacktail late season hunt in Oregon.

The antisipation of a new bow coming is part of the fun .
Congratulations .

I just picked up a mint contender for a buddy who is new to trad. I was blown away with that bow when I shot it. I think you will be happy to say the least.

I got a Liberty Rouge in a trade here, great shooting bow!!!  52# @ 28" 64" Like a dummy I sold it wanting something else.  Wish I would have hung onto that one.

Well just to wet your appetite a little more... 64" 50#@28" all mrytle.

Wonderful bow. If I could do over, I would probably have it made as a 52-53 lb.

But, I guess I wanted it for a late season whitetail bow and I shot completely through a decent sized buck this past season. So it is fine as it is.

A Chief is one of my favorite models. Very quick and well behaved. I have a 64-inch and draw 28 inches.

I have his English and Chief.  Superior craftsmanship makes them very shootable.  Plus you get to deal with a gentleman of the sport- Allen

Liberty bows are super nice shooters!  

1st time I ever shot one belonged to a friend..  Shot at 30+ yards, and nailed dead center... I was convinced..   Have owned several since then...  Great bows...

I have the Edge, love it!
Been eyeing the Chief real hard, might have to start saving the dollars for one.

You're going to love your bow!  The Chief is a terrific shooting bow.  I have a 62" Chief myself.  What woods did you go with?  

Best Regards, Chase

I got my new Chief model from Liberty bows and I just love everything about it. I've only shot just last evening but I see no point in shooting a 64" now that I have a 62" pulling 50 lbs at 28". It's a relaxing, smooth shooting bow. Plus I just love the profile of it with the myrtle veneers in the limbs. And it fits so nicely in the back seat too.
