If your Defender has the red oval in the BowTech logo, I'd bet it has the new reversed slide and cable changes. This is where I first spotted the difference when I brought home the wife's new Defender. When the Equalizer camed bows are cabled the "new way" they seem to show less cable rod torque. I looked at an early Defender in 60/28 inch draw and it did have some lean. My wife's Defender has VERY little and if you weren't looking FOR it hard,, you'd never see it!
