Recurve Limbs

These are probably the hardest archery products to differentiate between with vast differences in price.  Recurve bow limbs all look very similar.  Even to a trained eye it is sometimes hard to spot the differences.  If you are looking at our recurve limb selection and scratching your head, take comfort in the fact that you are not alone. 

There are two important rules you should consider: 

RULE 1: If you are a beginner, buy cheap! Not bottom of the barrel cheap, but if you are eyeing up some top-level limbs for your first bow – Don’t!  If you shoot regularly, within 6 months you will be wanting a heavier set.  Splash out on a fancy riser, by all means.  You don’t grow out of a riser. But you do grow out of your limbs. 

RULE 2: Do not buy heavy limbs straight away thinking you will grow into them.  These are not school trousers! Technique is king. Do not compromise technique by drawing too much weight. Keep it smooth. But once your draw weight has stabilised, then the benefits of top-level limbs are vast. They are smoother, faster, more stable and more forgiving.
