    Someone posted this picture from a PBR magazine. I can't confirm or deny the validity of this picture.

    looking at that I can't figure out how it would work as the riser appears to be solid... weird.

    how long before Elite comes out with their version? :)

    Well, to me, it looks as though there are pivot points on the riser, as if the ends of the riser would sweep back at full draw......?????? Strange, but I'm sure they are not going to market something that dont work..

    As for the rumored specs......If that is what it does, I'll take an Allegiance!:noidea:

    Ok, just talked to Bowtech last night. They said the Guardian and Commander are going to cause a big stir in the industry.

    The new system completely eliminates any cam lean. But that's not the big thing. The big thing is the pivot points are totally different. With the riser designed the way it is, it shoots and aims like a big bow. It has something to do with the pivot point being behind the grip instead of in front of the grip like typical systems.

    No bow press needed to change the strings and cables.

    Supposedly they tune incredibly easy. The average archer will see dramatic improvements in accuracy according to BT.

    I know I can't wait till they show up so I can start testing them.

    Oh here are some specs direct from Bowtech
    Commander
    37-1/4" Axle
    7-1/2" brace
    draw lengths 27-32"
    IBO 318

    Guardian
    33-3/7" Axle
    7-1/4" brace
    draw lenghts 25-30"
    IBO 329

    Oh and get this a new Constitution
    41" axle
    8-1/4" brace
    320 IBO:rockon:

    New cams on the tribute and allegiance. The Allegiance riser is a bit lighter this year.

    Oh and Side Plate Grips :peace: . Target colors will be Chrome, Black Chrome and Marble. Boy I really liked the Blue and Red last year but they said it was too hard to produce.

    Well I guess that is a relative term given this movie here...and they shoot recurves...a bow is only as good as the man shooting it, regardless of FPS, brace height, doodads and widgets.

    It's about 4:30 mins in length and if you can do that bro with your Diamond join the olympics, oh and note the distances in meters too:laugh: :rockon:
