Title: Limbsations
Post by: MnFn on June 24, 2025, 06:58:00 AM
Otto's copperhead skins on his Black Widows really got my attention.  I like them a lot.

Does anybody here have experience with the Limbsations in the copperhead motif?
Do they look real and are they durable?

I think copperhead skins would look great on my PFT.

The Copperhead and Timber Rattler are both realistic.  I think they are durable.

The Rick Barbee snakeskin patterns are very good. I've used both the regular and grey copperhead limbstations. Easy to apply, easy to remove, very durable.

Do these have any effect on tuning?

The only problem I've had with Limbsations is they are cut on a taper. Some of the bows I've done, the way I wanted to install them, the tapers were not quite wide enough for the bow limb. I dont know why they cant make them the same width end-to-end. That would solve a lot of fitment issues. Other than that, they are a good product.

I did a bow a few years ago with limbsations as Onestringer has been a Sponsor here forever(All the arrows I own, and have owned for years, are Onstringers). Plus, they are great quality and customer service.

Anyhow, I like them a lot.

They're available non-tapered, just make that request when ordering - no extra charge. I always get mine 2" wide, parallel, and trim them once installed.

Yes, just order them un trimmed. I love their wraps also, especially the reflective ones.  :readit:

I'll do that from now on.

They have some really great designs. On their limbsations and wraps.
