how much to shorten limb?
« on: September 26, 2008, 03:30:40 pm »
when making the lower limb shorter do you shorten it by however much you're placing the arrow pass above center?  For example, if my arrow pass is 1 1/2" above center would I shorten it 1 1/2"? ???

Possum, mark the center of your bow, go 1 1/2" above center and make a mark and go 2 1/2" below the center and make a mark. Between the 2 marks is your 4" handle. The bottom limb will be just a bit shorter than the top.      Pat
