I know bowtech was having problems with it on their allegiances, thats why they have changed the cam about 3 times since that bow came out. Im not sure about the gaurdian.

We have sold 5 Gaurdian's.and 3 Allegiance model bows so far this season.We havn't had any problems with either model.This is the first that I have heard of any "Cam Lean",BowTech has not told us anything about any problems? Only problem we are having is getting the Gaurdians in!!!

I've been shooting the Guardian (29", 71lb) since early December and haven't had any problems with it.

I've had my Guardian about 6 weeks now and just for the fun of it this year I'm keeping tract of the number of shots threw it and the Commander I also have. Last night I put my 1000th threw the Guardian and can say that there is no problem at all with "Cam Lean" on these bows. Bowtech has their new CenterTrac Binary Cam on these two bows and it eliminates any possibility of cam lean. Take a close look at the cable set up and you'll see what I mean. They are both wonderful shooting bows. Don't be worried about getting one. Do it and enjoy!

This is a bad rumor made up to throw some doubt on the greatest new bows of the year. ALL bows have in the past had some lean at full draw. To eliminate possible problems or should I say lessen lean Bowtech made some changes and improvements in several things, like moving the cables closer to the arrow. So when they put out they did this to lessen lean people start accusing them of having problems. Len has sold most every Guardian he's had come in the shop, I don't know how many... but more than a few. NO problems, no problems with mine or the two friends I know that have them. RUMOR Central is just gearing up to try and UNSELL a Bowtech here or there so that someone might buy the competitors bow.
