Title: ILF limb question.
Post by: rbcorbitt on April 11, 2013, 08:39:00 PM
I keep thinking I have this whole ILF thing figured out, and then I'm humbled, yet again.

15" Morrsion riser coupled with Morrison B longbow limbs will give what length bow?

Also, limbs rated 51# @ 25".  My draw is 29 1/4".  Approximately what will be weight at my lenght?

Thanks!

I would add that with one of Bobs bows at 56"s you will gain 3# per inch past 28"s and maybe 29"s but 4#s or more past that. I would guess 64-65#s. Shawn

I think you might be pushing it for draw though and I understand correctly Bobs riser's and limbs pretty much stay the same weight + or - 1# but if your pulling to 29" then of course a weight gain specially since they are rated for a 25" draw..I was looking at some of his LB limbs A and B lengths that were rated for a 26" draw and he recommended against it for my 27" draw and 15" riser

I would probably back the bolts out maximum at your draw length on that short of bow.It will probably feel best thier for you.

Yep you do have a very long draw for that bow.  You should give Bob a call and get his input before you end up eating the limbs.
