Title: Sneek peek of our new limbs for Bear T/D (pics fixed)
Post by: Blackhawk7204 on July 27, 2011, 07:28:00 PM
Here are a few photos of our prototype limbs for the Bear take down. After some testing and tweaking we will soon have them available.
They will be offered in both black glass or clear glass with exotic veneers. They will be fast flight ready.

I see all 3 riser lengths for sale from time to time on the bay. If they have limbs with the riser you can usually get it fairly cheep and then sell the limbs by themselves for a good price.  A friend of mine does this all the time and sometimes ends up with the riser for next to nothing.

Good looking limbs but the tips are too long and pointy.. Shorten them up a bit so they resemble a '62 Kodiak, not a Browning Explorer and I would like them even more.

Those are the standard limb tips Jim makes but I'm sure he can make them however you like.

Very nice!  I have an old Bear TD with two sets of limbs already, but have honestly been itching to get some zebra wood limbs to dress her up.  Looks like the possibility of some shopping is in my future   ;)  !

I saw those at Denton last week Jim - very cool!  As mentioned, reshaping the tips would be nice.  I have a '62 Kodiak - here are the tips.

60" on the "A" riser, 64" on the "B". These are the #3 limbs.

I shot a set of these limbs at Denton Hill. They really performed well for a light poundage set of limbs. I was quite impressed.
A bunch of us shot them and we all had positive thoughts of them. Good Work.

We gave John a list of our impressions.

Thank you / I shot actualy a model A riser with "N°3" 50 pounds old Fascor limbs that give me a 60 inches high bow / very interested by your new FF limbs / do you go from 5 pounds to 5 pounds for the poundage or it's possible by exemple to order  48 pounds limbs ?

Time to keep some money now !   :banghead:

Our limbs are made to order, so you can get any poundage you want.
