Title: Snake Skins
Post by: Rick Stevens on October 19, 2017, 01:48:00 PM

Technical question::
When you add a snake skin to the limb does it contribute to increasing the draw weight??

No. The minute amount of extra physical weight might slow the bow a bit but you'll never notice it.

I'm curious about the fabric of the synthetic skins.  What are they made out of?

No, not at all
Piking it 2" total will add 4-6 lb.
