Title: Fedora bow question
Post by: sam barrett on March 03, 2012, 02:37:00 PM
I have a question for you Fedora experts out there.  I am wanting to buy a new Fedora Xcellerator longbow.  My question is:  Should I spend the extra money on the "premium" 7 laminate limbs or save money and go with the standard 3 laminate (I believe) limb?  I currently have a 3 piece Fedora Xtreme longbow with the premium limb and it draws very smoothly.  I did shoot a Fedora recurve one time and I think it only had the standard limb and it seemed great too.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.   Thanks, Sam

Just remember that with more laminations at a given weight you are getting less wood and more glue in the core.  I prefer more wood and less glue generally speaking.
