I agree completely. I have owned and shot bows by the big three, Mathews, Hoyt, and Bowtech. I was a die hard Mathews fan of over 15 yrs. when I went to get my son a bow last season. I ended up buying him a Bowtech Tomkat and while I was there I made the "mistake" of shooting the Guardian. Needless to say I was back trading off my Apex 7 the next day and I never looked back. Had it not been for my complete change of heart by wanting to go traditional this season, I would be heading to the woods with an 82nd.
