Title: Martin Lynx - warfable?
Post by: Str8Arrow on May 07, 2009, 10:16:00 PM
I was hoping someone might be able to tell me if a 1980 Martin Lynx compound is able to be warfed without too much trouble. Anybody know?

Martin makes limbs for it.

I didn't know if the compound riser was the same as the recurve riser.

I know there is a Martin Lynx recurve but I would check with Martin to see if the limbs will work on your riser. The Martin Lynx recurve is a newer model (last 10 years) I think?
The important part of a warfable riser is the limb angle. Put the riser by a recurve riser and see if they are close.
I also recommand you get in touch with Bob Gordon. There is more to building a warf than screwing some limbs on to a riser.

I had a Martin Lynx compound many years ago. I called Martin about getting limbs for it and they said they would fit. Back then they were only $179.
