Title: My favorite bow delaminated!
Post by: donb on October 13, 2010, 11:16:00 PM
I have a very old Archery Traditions Patriot Recurve bow that has quite a bit of sentimental value. Unfortunately, while trying to remove a small twist in the upper limb, I ruined it and it delaminated. Anyone have any advice on how to get a set of replacement limbs? Owen Jeffrey? Archery Traditions? Used? Make my own? Suicide? O.K. just joking on that last one. Any help would be appreciated. The limbs were 52#@ 28.

If I remember right, Owen Jeffery made the patriot recurve and would be your best bet for new limbs.

Thanks but about 54# is the high end of what I can pull back.

don't waste your time with archery traditions. all they got in there any more is a few trade in trad bows, and a bunch of wheelie  bows.
like someone else said, contact owen jeffrey. his shop is in south carolina i believe. good luck
