The Guardian does not respond the same as most bows when backing out the limb bolts. It takes near 2 full turns on both limbs to equal roughly1 pound of draw weight.

TFOX... fair is fair, you don't like it, that's fine. One thing I would question though is you estimated what poundage you were shooting after backing out the limb bolts a little. You really need to pull a bow on a scale and KNOW for sure what it's pulling. Things get tagged wrong all the time. Bows are different etc etc etc. It's possible you were pulling less or 10 pounds more.

You are absolutely right,that is why I stated it the way I did.I am not a newbie and have pulled thousands of bows so the draw cycle is what I was feeling of and not necessarily the poundage.It did feel smoother than other Bowtechs I have pulled but not as smoothe as the Hoys.

And if it was off by 10 pounds over the tag,I would not be considering that bow anyway.

Again,I am not bashing the bow and I really wantd to like the bow becaues I love the design but the grip really disapointed me.They really need to square the back off a little so one can get a more consistant grip.
