TGhost G10 Riser with Gen2 Static Limbs
« on: August 08, 2016, 07:35:00 PM »
Been thinking about some more aggressive static limbs for a while now and this is my first iteration. Lots of preload with some aggressive hooks. Also, my risers are pretty small compared to most takedowns, 11" and 13", 1.5" wide at the limb pads so they tend to be fairly light in mass weight. Decided to try some G10. This one is all G10 and the 11" riser weighs in at just over 1.5#, about .5# heavier than an 11" Bocote riser with .75" of linen phenolic I just compared it to. Tweaked the deflex and riser design just a tad too. The added mass is really nice. Really happy with the performance gains in the limbs too.
I'll try to post some unstrung and strung pics later.

Very beautiful. But I like the smoke longbow more. Do you still make them?

A few more pics, strung and unstrung. Hope to try it out on a Arkansas black bear in a few weeks. Got permission to hunt some new property this year, start baiting in 3 weeks and opening day is 9/24, can't wait.

Wow! Your bows always get me drooling. Bet that's a SOB to string though.

Thanks for all the compliments everybody!

Sorry Biathlonman, guess since I'm not really taking any custom orders for now, I am a bit of a tease. Just wanted to get some thoughts from the Gang on the new design.

Don't be surprised if you see a stock bow now and then as I have time.

It may look hard to string but it's not at all. The limbs are very torsionally stable. I use a standard Selway stringer with the deep cup on the bottom and rubber pad on top and it's just as easy as any other recurve.
