Bassboy1645 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I shot my friends Bowtech Gaurdian....I cant even hardly stand to look at my bow now....It twangs soo loud and the arrows lob out at a slow 290 something fps. It looks ancient too. The first arrow I launched, I didnt even know I shot I saw the arrow in the block and gasped HOLY ****!!But my PSE was my first bow and that was when I was 13 so I think its time to shell out the bucks this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 ... and it'll take a lot of bucks to be shelled out to acquire a Guardian! However, I think it's worth every penny! I really, really, really want one, but timing's not good for me right now- baby on the way, deck and landscaping work to spend $$$ on this summer, elk hunting trip to pay for this Fall. I am hoping to get one by next year at this time though!P.S. Did I mention I REALLY want one?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey lee Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Scoot, are you sure you really want one???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooter Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 That seems to be the word from my bow hunting nut buds that the Guardian is indeed something special. So until my money tree buds I'll stay away from them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassboy1645 Posted April 12, 2007 Author Share Posted April 12, 2007 DONT PICK IT UP AND DEFINETLY DONT SHOOT IT!!!!! YOU WONT WANT TO GO BACK!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigM Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I've been looking at the Guardian and the Vectrix. Shot them both and can't decide which way to go. Leaning toward the Hoyt Vectrix though. Can't go wrong with either I guess, but it's a tough decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surewood Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I will be picking up the Vectrix tomorrow, the big difference that swayed me was the Vectrix was a little cheaper and I like the way Hoyts look, gotta have that to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Craig and surewood, I'm with you guys- I really think the Vectix and Guardian/Commander are the cream of the crop right now. I've shot a dump-load of bows in the past couple months and I liked those two FAR better than any other bow I shot. surewood, I thought I remembered them being the same price? Regardless, they're a lot of $$$. I remember about five years ago thinking "A bow just can't get any better than this." Boy, was I wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Archery really is an addiction isn't it? I too am amazed at what manufacturers can accomplish each year. Heck, even in the accessories department. Some home runs hit this year that is for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassboy1645 Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 CAN A BOW EVEN GET ANY BETTER?!??!?! Perhaps that will influence my mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlm Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I have my last years Tribute for sale which is the best bow ever produced (I know Mathews guys want to argue this). I am getting the Guardian!!!!!! Bowtech will be leading the pack again this year it looks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
