RE: Next archery purchase...
Buckeye - This is strictly a hunting bow. Granted, I may shoot a little 3D with it here and there, but mainly it will be a hunting bow.
Jm - I shoot the Guardian nearly every day at work, no amount of shooting has convinced me that it is any better than my Allegiance. It has the "cool" new technology, but my Allegiance shoots just as well.
Tx - These are brand new factory strings. The previous set I put probably 1,500+ shot through and we had an extra set at work, so I swapped them out. They probably have roughly 200 shots on them. I'm not necessarily replacing them because they'll shoot any better, I just want a different color.
