carbon/foam core limbs
« on: December 05, 2010, 06:41:00 AM »
A question for those of you who may have experience: Are carbon/foam core limbs any more or less prone to twisting than wood core limbs?  Just wondering.  I recently acquired a set of carbon/foam core limbs from Mr. Morrison - and all I can say is they are awesome, and more than I ever expected! Thanks again Bob, I really lucked out.  The black limbs look great on your bacote/macassar ebony riser.

imho, man-made limb materials such as carbon, foam, ceramic, glass, etc, are less prone to being affected by the elements (temperature, humidity, stress) than natural organic materials (wood or grass) in terms of stabilized consistency ... and twisting.

You can't go wrong with a set of Morrisom carbon/foam limbs.

I prefer bamboo and black glass. Ymmv.
