hoytshooter09 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Yes with today's materials they are pretty even I like split because u can add limb saver to it making it quieter solid limbs do have the weak point at the v but not so much of a problem these days .

abrown Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I read an article a while back, A WHILE back, when Hoyt was the only one doing split limbs. Their reasoning behind split vs. solid limbs was durablity. They took two bows identical, except for the limbs. Then started dry firing them to see which one busted first. The split limb bow outlasted the solid limb bow with no problem, took like 5 shots with the solid limb to crack em, dry fired the split limb quit a bit more. They had a scientific reason for it, something to do with the center of the limbs. It would make sense, cause there's only a few companies still with the solid limbs, majority are split limbs.

hoytshooter09 Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Hoyt does there 1,000 dry fire test on all there bows pretty impressive they can with stand that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted August 19, 2013 Report Share Posted August 19, 2013 i'm pretty sure very very few shooters could ever shoot well enough to tell the difference or see any benefit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
