I asked on another forum and got some very favorable reviews and great perspectives on the Max6s, but wondered if any of my Trad Gang friends had had a chance to get a set and "wring them out", yet.
As a result of the years that creeping up on me and the continued challenges I fight with Multiple Sclerosis, I know I need to start thinning my collection of really great bows. You will probably see a few popping up on the Classifieds within a month. I should never, ever consider buying another bow or any more archery equipment. But...
Since I heard of their announcement, I have been intrigued by the new limbs that Brandon has developed with Bob Morrison's input. My favorite hunting bow is a Cheyenne recurve that has accounted for a good number of game animals. The fit of the riser is better for me than any other bow I've used, and I am reluctant to take a chance on something new. But as the physical challenges grow, I am looking for a way to keep really good hunting performance even as I am forced to step down yet again in poundage. From all I have heard and seen so far, it may be that the Max6 limbs from Morrison could be an answer.
From experience, I seem to prefer a bolt down style limb over ILF, and it looks like there would be two possibilities here. I could send in my favorite riser to have it re-worked to handle the new limb, or look at one of the new MTX risers that have been developed. In a perfect world, I would simply have the new limbs fitted to my old riser, but I'm not sure that is a possibility.
I hope to speak with Brandon soon, but was trying to learn what I can first and ask the very best questions I can. If any of you have experience with the Max6, I would certainly appreciate any opinions or input!
Thanks so much, Daryl
