Stability regardless of temperature. Consistency and smoothness of draw. Olympic shooters have been using them in their limbs for quite some time.

I have recently bought a bow with foam core limbs.
It is 65#, same as my old Bear Take down ( mag riser)
The Bear liked 2117's the new bow 2219's.
I suspect it's a bit quicker, lol.

I talked to Bob Morrison about the foam core limbs he is building He told me they are faster, quieter, smoother, and more forgiving. I will find out for myself in a few months.

I watched an olympic hopeful practicing with a bow that had the foam core. I was floored by how flat that 41lb. bow shot his arrows at the long shot. I wonder what the fps he was getting. I want a Hill style with the stuff.
