Title: Zipper limb/riser question
Post by: Missing Impossible on April 10, 2013, 06:39:00 PM
Will Extreme limbs fit the standard riser?  

Thanks,

Mike

Mike, yes they will fit. There is a 3lb gain from
standard to extreme.

Yes.  The limbs are the same, the risers are different.  There is a 3# draw weight difference, heavier on an extreme riser.  For example 50# limbs on a standard riser should come in at 53# on an extreme riser.  I've had some Zipper limbs that have the draw weight marked for an extreme riser, some marked for a standard riser and some limbs marked for both types of risers.

Thank you both for the replies!  I recently acquired a 1991 Bob Thompson Standard LH bow but the limbs were too heavy for me.  My RH friend wanted the limbs and now I found a RH Extreme bow that has the limbs I need and the riser he wants.  This may work out!

Thanks again for the fast replies!
