Default Thanks to Rick James (Matt) and Rob

Well as you can tell by my signature I am not a fan boy, but actually quite the opposite. I shot a buddies guardian and decided to sell my switchback xt and buy one from their shop. I went to the shop to purchase one and he sold his last one a few hours before. This would not be a problem except the Ga deer season was less than 2 weeks away. I went on to to AT just to check the classifieds and sure enough Matt had just posted the guardian listed below. I cannot log on at work due to web restictions so I e-mailed Rob to see if he could reach Matt. Now keep in mind these guys have no idea who a lurker like myself is. Lets just say a couple days later she arrived and we immediatly dressed her up. Matt had her in time/tune and we paper tuned, ran her through the chrono, and walk back tuned (I am still learning this)during the last couple days. She is shooting bulletsat 70lbs with a29.5" draw, gold tip 5575's @ 27 3/4", and 100gr heads= 307 FPS. She is wearing a Spot Hogg real deal with .19 pins and wrapped, stone mountain dakota string, limb driver and a meta peep. Tonight I put a rage, a montec g-5 and a shuttle t into the same space from 35 yards. Again I can't thank Rob and Matt enough.









Per Rob and man law here are the pics. As you can tell I am horrible with the pics so if someone wants to fix the sizes, please be my guest.

Yeah, these guys are great. I just bought a bow from hunsucker. Had it shipped to another buddy's house on the forum. He's fixing it all up for me. The guys on this forum are the best!

I think I'll have my hands on that bow tomorrow night if Ben brings it up for Poorguy's Archery's special touch.

Michael,
I think you'll find that there are a BUNCH of CLASS-ACT guys on here, no doubt about it, and they're the kind of guys that you WANT to be around and WANT to associate with.
