Stronger or weaker limb on top for glass bow?
« on: December 19, 2009, 12:27:00 AM »
I cannot remember if on a glass bow if the weaker limb should be on the top or bottom?  I think it is to be the top limb.

Top limb on all bows is weaker from what Ive heard and read about.

if you measure the deepest area on both limbs from the bow to the string...you should see about 1/8" more on the top limb since it's bending a little more.  I have seen bows made for 3 under that were even on both limbs though.
