Title: Anyone Make Limbs For an Old Herter's Takedown Recurve? (Pictures Added)
Post by: GrayRhino on September 15, 2010, 04:41:00 PM
I have a 1976 Herter's Model 62 Magnum takedown (62 in.) and I would like to get a new set of limbs made for it.

This is a sweet, compact, bow with metal riser and limbs effortlessly slip into a pocket on the riser requiring no hardware to assemble.  
 

Do you know of anyone that can make a new set of limbs for me?

I think Mike McCready could/would do it. Contact Mad Dog Archery.

Contacted Mike but he cannot make the limbs.  Anyone else have an idea?

I know it's a long shot, but here's what I have.  The limbs are great, just too heavy at my 32 inch draw length.  I'd like some around 40@28.
