Pronghorn Series IV takedown
« on: October 04, 2015, 01:43:00 PM »
To those of you that have shot/owned one of Herb's Series IV all glass limbed takedowns what can you tell me about them? And compared to his regular td's?

Thanks in advance.

I  had one.It was bomb proof looking.It did shoot pretty fast and was very stable with the strong limbs.It might have had a little more handshock than the regular limb?Its been years since I had it.I think the limb may be a little heavier than a wood cored or bamboo cored limb.Not sure though?It was a solid feeling bow when shot.Thier pretty rare.

I'm guessing you are asking about the t/d longbow and not the t/d (Ferret) recurve.

   I pretty much agree with Steelhead, the all glass limbs in the longbow limbs seem to have a bit more hand shock than Elm, Bamboo or Foam core.
   I personally prefer the Bamboo core limbs.All are good bows.

Yes, the TD longbow. That is what I was wondering if the all glass would be shocked because of the increased weight.

Any more comments?

Agree with the above posts, shot my buddies from Wyoming in Africa and I had Herb's bamboo limb model with me. Both got the job done.

The all glass limb will have a little more thump in the hand. This happens because the limb is much heavier that say a boo core. I have almost all the configs herb makes or have had. The all glass handles the heavy arrow the best of the lot in my experience.

Have any of you had any problems with the micarta handles on these all glass limbed TD longbows?

I have never heard of trouble with the handles.
