Title: Stronger or weaker limb on top for glass bow?
Post by: Koko Bow on December 19, 2009, 12:27:00 AM
I cannot remember if on a glass bow if the weaker limb should be on the top or bottom?  I think it is to be the top limb.

if you measure the deepest area on both limbs from the bow to the string...you should see about 1/8" more on the top limb since it's bending a little more.  I have seen bows made for 3 under that were even on both limbs though.
