Heavy Tall Tines
« on: April 29, 2014, 06:17:00 PM »
I was wondering what the heaviest limbs are out there that's been made for a Tall Tines recurve? I have a set of 65# and 64# limbs but want to get a set of 70-75 pound limbs and didn't know if there were any out there. If you have a set in that weight range do you like them or dislike them. My 65# limbs are on a long riser and makes a 62" bow and they feel great, I'm just looking to shoot the heaviest limbs I can comfortable. Thanks

Logan,
I think the best answer would reside right here:

Check with Mike Mitten he has a couple up there pretty heavy plus this one he uses for training:

 

My heaviest is 59# @ 28" and is still sitting at the post office. Hopefully I can pick it up tomorrow.

I've seen those limbs of Mikes before and heard the story behind them. If I remember right Brian was messing with Mike on the marked weight on those limbs, but I guess you won't know unless you try to pull them back!! LOL

Those limbs should be good for warm up prior to a hunt.
