3 Piece Bow questions
« on: October 30, 2010, 06:42:00 PM »
I'm designing a riser for a 3 piece build and was wondering how long is the mounting pad usually for the limbs?
This will be for a longbow.

I build a 16" riser and use a 4" limb pad.

My riser is 16" also but designed it with a 4.5" pad.
How many locator pins do you guys use for each limb?
Thanks

I build a 16" riser with 4" pads with two locators one above and one below.
