Hello to All,
I have a simple question: how tight do you go when attaching your limbs to a takedown recurve.

I do it 'snug' - whatever that means.  Obviously, too much is too much and not enought is the same.

Thoughts/comments appreciated.

I spin until the screw binds.  Can't say the foot pounds.  Like you said, snug.

one finger turning till the wrench stops..

i do the same. i might  take 1/4 a turn after it stops to be sure its good and snug.

Yeah, don't get to carried away. I got a friend that tightens to much and it will crack the fiberglass where the bolts go through.

1/4 turn after "snug" is plenty tight----
