Compare Bear t/d A & B handles
« on: October 08, 2008, 10:20:00 PM »
What would be the difference, if any, in arrow speed, penetration and bow quietness comparing an A handle with #3 limbs and a B handle with #1 limbs; both bows would be 60" AMO and both same poundage @ 27". What difference should I expect? Pros and Cons?
    Thanks,

Conventional 'wisdom' will tell you the B with #1 will be slightly faster than the A with #3, but the A with #3 will be a real smooth drawing bow.  I don't know if anyone has actually done the chrono testing though.

The B riser is a very stable platform to launch an arrow from and I like the longer bows anyway.

What I'm very interested to try though are #4 longbow limbs on an A riser.    :readit:  heehee
