I currently have Bowtech Tribute and am looking to get a Guardian. With the speed specs basically the same are there any benefits to switching aside from having a new bow? This bow will predominantly be used for hunting only.

Thanks in advance.

i dont know much about them two bows but i would say no.....though there might be alittle diff in smothness and forgivness....i say shoot the newer one vs yours and if it is something you really like and justify spending the money..do it..i think the main diff will be having a new bow...good luck with your choice and happy hunting

While the Tribute is a great bow the Guardian is Quieter, less hand shock, and IMO is a more forgiving shooter. Personally I would choose the Guardian hands down. I am also hearing good things about the General, and I am anxious to put mine through the paces

I'll just echo Meanv2's opinion. I shot better with the Guardian than the Tribute. It was quieter with less kick, and felt better balanced. I was able to hold much tighter groups at distance.

Looks like I am in the minority here, but I have an '07 Tribute that is a dream to shoot. I really like the shorter ATA and the smoothness of the bow. It is dead in my hand and a pleasure to move around the treestand. I have shot the Guardian, it was a fine shooting bow. Just preferred the Tribute.

would have to say the tribute is a great bow and the guy at the store said there is not much differnce in the two
