After taking the last 4 hunting seasons off the urge to get back into the woods was very strong this past fall. Knowing I didn't want to hunt the modern firearm season anymore I decided to bowhunt next fall.
Shopping for left handed bows sucks. With the downturn in the economy shops are not able to stock the number they used to. I shot a Mathews DXT and a Mission Buckmasters and really liked both of them. I shot a Hoyt Super Hawk and a mid-range Bowtech which both were nice, but didn't feel as good as the Mathews.
To make a long story shorter. I bought a used Mathews Switchback. The bow is in great shape and came with Vapor Trail strings and a Mathews 5 arrow quiver. I ordered the sight and arrow rest Friday and picked up a case and a dozen arrows. Still need to decided on a stabilizer, a release (D-loop) and some broadheads.
2005 Mathews Switchback 28in 70lb
Spott Hogg Seven Deadly Pins wrapped
Whisker Bisquit Sure Shot
Gold Tip XT Hunter 7595
Blacks Creek Guide Gear case
Stabilizer?
Release?
I wish it was done now. I'm ready to start shooting it!
I'll post some pics once it's complete.
Watch out

I shot F4S's Mathew while I was there. Mind you its been a Long long time since I loosed an arrow but that was one very sweet shooting rig. I could become a cult member very easily myself.
