Both limbs are twisted! I got it at our local Harvest Festival for $35 it is a real sweet bow its 60lbs but draws and holds better then my 56lb TD recurve. How much would a new set of limbs cost from PSE? I knew something wasnt right when I strung it and the string stuck out way past the string grooves. Being me I shot it at close range and only went to half draw sure enough soon as I shot the string popped off. Hopefully PSE still makes limbs for the bow if anyone knows please reply. Thanks

They replaced a set of limbs for me on a second hand bow.

Just straighten them yourself, string the bow and while holding the string in place in the string groove twist it the opposite way of the twist. Do this a few times to each limb and than shoot it a bot, check and repeat the process. Do this a few times over a few day period and you will be all set. Shawn

You might try what Shawn suggested. I did this to my first bow back in 72 and it worked for that bow. If it doesn't work try PSE.

Dont know if I strug it wrong or what but everything is closed to lined up. I did what Shawn said and did try to twist the limb to where it should be. The groove is off just slightly hardly noticeable would it be safe to shoot it and see what happneds?

I have had a few bows with twisted limbs and I have worked the twists out of them the way Shawn explained.

The only thing I would add is DO NOT,unstring them. Work the limbs by twisting them back in place,shoot them a bit,etc. Then when you are done,hang the bow horizontaly by it's string when your not shooting it.   :thumbsup:
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!

I have a Talon and they don't make the limbs any more.
