Bowtech Commander
Hey can anyone give me any insight on the Bowtech Commander. I will use it for deer out of a treestand and occasional grounblind hunting. I was looking into the Guardian but I found a great deal on a commander and would like your guys' opinion on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.

RE: Bowtech Commander
I pretty much agree with Dan, I have both and really like both. I purchased them last year and still have them! If you knew me,
that says a lot! Both are set up at 29" and 70-71 lbs. The commander is a little smoother on the draw. It woiuld depend on your
height and how the bow fits you too. If you have a tall blind, 80 inches or so, either would work, short blind, the guardian would
be a better bet.

37 ATA isnotlong.37 ATA was very short a few years ago before parallel limbsand the new styles came out. Don't believe the hype with the shorter bows as it is a marketing trend. In a few years everyone will need a longer bow for some reason.
I shoot a 37 ATA bow andthtink it definatley makes a difference in accuracy over a shorter bow.Now maybe in a blind the shorter bow makes a difference. I have no idea as I have never bow hunted in a man made blind.
Besides thestability advantage of the longer bows there isthe string angle and peep sight issues you can run intowhen you shoot a short bow.
