Most bowyers will spend the little development time available to work on the latest and greatest new top of the line limb. We are doing that but spent a good amount of time this fall working to upgrade our basic RC limb.
Our original design Epic RC and Orion RC limb has been with us for a long time and over the years the limitations of the design have diminished sales. The new limb is an update design that looks a lot like our top of the line RC limbs but will maintain a price of $450. It is offered as a base limb with maple cores only and will be produced in five pound increments from 30 - 55.
We will offer it in medium and long limbs to start with shorts and XLs to come later.
Performance numbers are as follows:
Long limbs on our 17” ILF riser for energy storage efficiency and also for speed.
SE/PDF28 = 0.992
SE/PDF30 = 1.072
Draw/Force curve incremental poundage increases slightly between 29” and 30”, and only slightly more all the way out to 31”. Plenty smooth for a 30” draw.
AMO speed (9 grains per pound at 30” of draw) = 196.9 fps
Excellent torsional and vertical stability.
