Default BowMender bow press and Guardian

After looking at and shooting the Guardian the other day, I made notes and observations of the bow and one of my bow presses I had with me. I'd like to state that I wouldn't recommend using the BowMender bow press on the Guardian or Commander bows from BowTech.

I'll be working on a solution soon for a means to press the bow repeatedly instead of backing off the limb bolts for tuning adjustments

What do your presses look like, are they stationary or are they portable. I may be interested. Thanks

ash, they're among the best on the market... and that includes every brand out there. Highly portable so you can take them to your 3D meetsor on your out-of-state trips as well, and priced EXTREMELY reasonable...

Take a look at this...

Greg, you are exactly right they are IMHO the best out now...
Also, WWAGi was wondering if these newer bows with different risers would work in modern presses but you answered my question

I responded on AT wwag but great product and I great appreciate your working with me when I ordered it. I know you'll work it out as soon as your hands are on the Guardian.
