Default 08 Bowtech Guardain vs. General

Just looking for some opinions. I have shot the General and have been unable to locate a Guardian to shoot (None of the bow shops in my area have any more). I really liked the General. I was wondering how much of a difference there is in the feel (draw cycle, after shot shock, etc.) and noise. I like everything about the Guardian but am reluctant to pull the trigger on one not knowing the difference. Thanks!

Someones Experiences with the Guardian maybe completely different than what you will feel. So my suggestion to you if find one out there and shoot it for yourself man. Best advice I can give you...Good Luck!

Between the General & the Guardian I'd pick the Guardian. I like the little extra A to A and if the General has the Speed modsinstalled, the Draw on the Guardian is smoother IMHO.

I just shot my Captain today and it is really an Awesome shooter.

Between the two, unless your a big fan of short ATA's, I'd choose the Guardian although the General is one incredible short bow.

I was wondering if Bowtech could actually improve on them, I was impressed when the 09's did improve on them. One thing you can count on, you won't go wrong with any of them.
