I would have to come up with an amount of cardboard to tape to the limb. I doubt it would be much, maybe a square inch or so. If I tapered the last eight inches down from 1/2" to 1/4" that would be one sq. in. If I tapered 16" the same that would be two sq. in. Not but who knows.

I'm steaming limbs so I had a bit of time. ;D I used DS tape to hold two pieces of 1/32 plywood to the tips. They added 1 sq. in. to each limb. Total weight of ply and tape 34 grains. Five shots with and five without. Averages with 185.6, without 186.66. Not a lot of difference but it's there.
