Would like to know some of your opinions. I like most on here has moved thru the years from bow to bow. Starting with a bear whitetail hunter, pullies and all, to browning excellerator plus, to PSE Mohave, to my current 04 bowtech liberty VFT.

I went from really long ATA bows, long brace hieght, that were very forgiving, to my current favorite a releatively shorter ATA bow, that I find to be not so forgiving but shock free.

I shoot the liberty fine but find it less forgiving than my 44" ATA bows, but much better feel.

Should I consider going with a newer faster bow like the drenelin, or Allegience, or guardian? Or will I hate the unforgiveness even more with a more heavily reflexed bow?

Do you think the allegience would be a whole lot less forgiving that a liberty VFT?

Stop by the shop. I've got quite a few that will be much more 'forgiving' that you can shoot.

My understanding would be that the Guardian should be significantly more forgiving than either the Allegiance, Drenalin or Liberty VFT. It is touted as having a more forgivingrisergeometrysimilarto those older, longer bows of years past.

Maybe a stupid question but here goes. What do you guys mean by "forgiving". I keep hearing people say this with the longer brace hights but I'm not sure what its all about. I had a Jennings Onestar that was like 47"ata and I now shoot an 05 allegiance the is like 33" ata that I love. The allegiance has a shorter brace hight and shoots much more consitant and accurate.

wow, I just went to Len's and shot the Guardian. I shoudl have shot the commander while there. But it will be my next purchase. Len showed me a cool things, like the cams are lined up perfectly.

Mark - not to take anything away from Bowtech, but have you tried any Mathews bows?

Roskoe:

I have samples of the Drenalin, SB and SBXT in the shop for customers to try against anything else. If he wants to do a side-by-side comparison, that's no problem.

Len, you really need to move to Western NY

Yep, shot my brothers switchback. Seems like a fine bow, but just little hard for me to hold one target. Just didn't feel right for me.
