For an all around Hunting bow, between those 2, I'd pick the Guardian hands down.

A general rule of thumb that I was taught was "Long ATA for a long draw, short ATA for short draw". I would say if your draw length is 29" or more then go with the Commander, if it is less then go with the Guardian. I don't think you can go wrong with either choice though.

I hunt with a Commander.

the guardian is a better hunting bow, the commander is just too long to hunt with imo. but its whatever you like

I have never shot the Commander but I do owna Guardian and love it.

ok, thanks, im not to sure what my drawlength is honestly. i need to go to my local shop and have them measure what i'm shooting now. also, is a longer axle to axle going to stabilze my shot more? and which bow is quieter?

childers

and which is lighter?

The Guardian is lighter, measure your arm span finger tip to finger tip and divide by 2.5 That will give you a very good starting place for your correct Draw length.

In owning a Pro Shop for years, the one thing I saw on a consistent basis was guys shooting a Draw length which was too long.

yeah i believe my current drawlength is about 1/2 an inch long.
