Title: bowtech guardian
Post by: hntrspud on May 21, 2014, 06:41:58 PM: There is one for sale on cl that was a backup, Haas winners choice strings and was tuned by Riverside last year. I read about the limbs possibly having issues. Has anyone owned one, and or what can you say about them? Good or bad.

Post by: hntrspud on May 23, 2014, 11:39:46 AM: Thats just fine. It has the pins in the limbs either way so I am good on that. Now hopefully I like the way it fits and shoots. :tup:
