I'm with you!Anchor tabs trust me we will all have soma saker tabs by the end of the year (I really belive this I think mines THAT good !)
Cool another convert if this carries on can we have our own section ?? lolI'm with you!
Shot mine for the first time on Sunday (with OBs tab material). Sweet!!!!! :cake:
You really are a Gadget Freak aren't you Mike?:cheerful:I'm with you!

Can't agree with that one, just to be different, lol. Just couldn't get on with them at all.Anchor tabs trust me we will all have soma saker tabs by the end of the year (I really belive this I think mines THAT good !)
And your point is? :cheerful:You really are a Gadget Freak aren't you Mike?:cheerful:
I just hope that these new limb fittings are more 'universal' than the current (supposedly) universal international limb fittings. If they were to be, it would mean that bow and limb manufacturers would have to stop trying to carve out their own little niche of a (relatively) small global market, and co-operate over specifications for a bit. Personally, I think it'll be a long time coming...:cheerful:Just got my crystal ball out, and it says that the days of the international limb fittings are numbered. It won't be long before recurve limb pockets and limbs are designed the same way compound limbs and pockets are now. With good size pivots in them and strong enough to allow the adjustment of tiller and weight with the bow strung. A half round section on the limb, fitting onto machined half round recess in the riser will ensure accurate location of the limb and a strong weight adjustment bolt at the other end of a longer limb pocket will do the rest.
the only notable exceptions I know of being Nishizawa and Perris. Materials have changed, but the basic form, proportions and geometry have remained virtually constant. So much so that we tend to think that this is, with its minor variations, the best possible, or even only possible shape - I bet it isn't!
I could never afford a Nishi - they were ?900+ in 1988, when the top line Hoyt's and Yamaha's were around ?300, but a lot of my Swedish friends swore by them and regarded them as the only bow worth bothering with. They were certainly the most precisely engineered, beautifully finished bows I've ever seen, and still are.Shoots a dream. Nishi probably made the best limbs ever.
Where can I find some pictures?
Ta Al. Interesting reading.search on here
there was a thread about them a while back i think.
