well she looks just like any Mathews switchback i guess, except this bow whispered to me that itsa a real killer lmao ;D. i have deemed her "The Beast"  i want to give ash hudson a big thanks for taking over 4 hours with me yesterday . he set up 6 different bows for me until we came in at a 27 1/2 inch draw 60# bow. getting weaker in my older age  . i got a Ripcord rest ,Toxonics 3 pin sight, sims string leeches, sims limb savers, string loop , peep sight, sims s-coil stabilizer, wristband and i think it was an alpine quiver is what he said  heres some pics.    |

You drank the Kool Aid?  ;D That looks super nice Rick!! From your other thread it sounds like shes a tack driver and very smooth. Congrats on the newest addition to the family.  |

my buddys is set at 60# and ill be the first to say its sick compared to my tribute at 70. a switchback at 60# has to be the smoothest bow on the market. its just crazy! almost unbelievable.
AND ID LIKE TO WELCOME YOU TO "TEAM RIPCORD"!

after spending 6 hours looking at bows and shooting them. i didn't want to stay any longer and do that. he tuned it up using levels and some protractors . i could have stayed but it was nearing 7:30 pm by that time and i was starving. i'll paper shoot it and if theres any big problems i'll take it back to him if its anything i cant do myself. it was by my choice not to stay any longer. his spaghetti dinner(his wife brought at 5 pm ) had been sitting in the microwave in the shop , if i got any hungrier i would have had to buy it from him lol.

i shot some broadheads tonight with it and they were shooting fine. i won't get a chance to shoot it through paper until tomorrow or monday. i can kill a deer with it i know at 30 yards easy the way it sits , maybe 40. i want to feel comfortable at 50 though before season . |
