I have been watching Extremes on ebay and they have been selling in the $300.00 area. It has a 3 pin High Country sight and a PM hunter rest. I bought it new in 03. It is in excellant shape with a little wear around the grip. The draw length is 29" plus a loop which would make it about 29 1/2". I can have my pro shop make it what ever draw length you want. Also...........it is a 60 lb. bow. Turned all the way down, it pulls about about 62.5. Email me at [email protected] if interested.

Congrats! I had the same thing happen to me a couple weeks ago. I went to buy my son a bow, walked out with a new one for him, and a Guardian for me. I think you made a great choice. It is still hard for me to believe how dead in the hand this thing is at the shot. Keep us posted on how you are shooting with it.

My friend who has a bow shop, can't keep the Guardian in stock. They go out the door as fast as he gets them in. Another friends son just started an indoor range and a Techno Hunt. He sells PSE so I am sure I am going to have to take some crap when I show up with the Guardian. It all boils down to what you like and feel confortable with. Just like Chevy / Ford / Dodge etc. I tried an X Force. My Extreme and the X Force were both set at 58 lbs. If I had to guess, the X Force was set at 65+. It was fast and hit hard but I wouldn't be able to pull it back after sitting in a tree in cold weather for a couple of hours.
