Guys.. I just got an email from the seller....
"These limbs have NOT been sanded. They are all as original as when they were build in Grayling MI. The only thing that was done to them was to proffessionally degloss them. There is still some gloss on them but more of a satin finish on them now. Bear has always put a real glossy finish on their limbs and bows not making them conducive to be used in hunting"
Best,
Cody
