Title: riser & limb lengths 3 pc TD
Post by: newtradgreenwood on October 29, 2009, 02:37:00 PM
Say I want a 60" longbow (or recurve) in a 3 piece takedown.  What are the pros and cons of a short riser/long limbs vs. long riser/short limbs ?

Sort riser has less sight window and long riser has more.

In our Orion both risers shoot the same.

With the short limbs you will hit draw peck and energy stored much faster and with the longer it will be smoother and more gradual.
