limb length on hybrids
« on: December 06, 2009, 05:43:00 PM »
Do Hybrid bows have equal length limbs or is the top limb longer like on some mild r-d longbows? I used to make a mild r-d bow and made my top limb 1" longer and tillered it about 1/16 to 1/8" more positive than the bottom limb. I'm thinking it could go either way. Thanks, Rob.

I'll go back and check my notes, but I believe all the ones I've owned had equal length limbs with the handle offset in the riser.

Well, that's not strictly true, the upper limb on my Massie Longhorn was 1/4" longer than the lower.
