limb rebound

Post by halfczech »

This will be my first yr hunting with my Vortex. My question is after you release the arrow how far forward do the limbs go? Wondering about how much space is needed in front of my bow for free limb travel?

That's a very good question...i honestly don't know. :?
My guess would be a few inches past the furtherest point at rest. I make sure i give myself at least a foot of clearance around my limbs when choosing a stand set up. Haven't had any surprises yet!! :shock:

Thank you for the repleys. Boo your utube video seems to answer my question. The limbs do not appear to travel past the point of where they end up at rest.
