« on: April 03, 2018, 01:03:26 PM »
I have a bow that I made the riser 1/8 more narrow then the the stack calc. so taking the SWAG, I'm thinking 6.25 lb loss in draw weight is there a average per inch weight gain figure for shortening a limb ??

I think it is about 5# for 1 inch off each limb for my R/D bows...
