65#'s

[creekchub]

think i read where you can order a bow with 65# limbs it this true?

[Bretz56]

I have not heard of it, but I am no know it all,lol!!!! Was someone maybe saying you could get 65#'s out of a 60 lb bow?

As I underestand, Barnsdale can pretty much make any limb poundage you want. Just call them up with the measurements. As far as Elite is concerned I really can not see them offering a 65# limb option, there just is not enough of a market there.

I may not have the exact numbers right, but I believe you can take a 60# limb and adjust it from 50 to about 64lbs. Or take a 70# limb and adjust it from 60 to about 74lbs. If you order direct from Elite, they'll set the #'s where you want it.

I read that too and would be interested in a 65 lb bow. I usually don't crank my bow all the way up to 70 lbs buy I would shoot a 65 lb bow at or near it's max which I've always heard is better.

I would be interested in 65lbs too. Would it be an extra cost?

I asked Elite Brad the same question and here is his reply

"Hi Mike,

We don't offer any special limbs. What we do is to back the limbs down. We can't do a 55-65 lb bow. We can either build a 60 lb and back it down to 55 or a 70 lb and back it down to 65.

Thanks for the interest
Brad"

you can always buy an extra set of limbs from Barnesdale in the weight you want.
