- The fifth video segment helps to bring some understanding to the wide range of limb options.
In this segment, Coach Elton gives some recommendations on what to consider when shopping for limbs, describes some of the different properties in modern limb manufacture, and helps you to understand how riser length and draw length affect the final draw weight an archer will have for their set up.

Thank you for your channel. You are a gifted speaker, and you have organized the material so that it is easy to follow, and you focus on the essentials with reasonable recommendations.
Great videos! I've decided to stick with mid level gear and put the arrows through it.....I realized it's been the shooter holding me back!
...these are really good videos...every word is useful information...no babbling on and on... just what you need to know, and why you need to know it...
Excellent video my friend. But, one of the problems with archery is the availability to try different limbs, risers and setups. That said, we all must endure the journey.
I got my shirt order and was touched that you included the note and stickers. Thank you so much!
Great content, Barebow Archery needs more love.
Really enjoying your videos. Really helping me understand the equipment and work on form. Keep them coming.
More set up vids would be good
Very informative and helpful. Hope you make more content like this. Thanks!
Good solid content... thanks for the tips.
Thank you for the great content, explained perfectly!
Well done !
Thank you Coach now as you can tell from the following statement I am a new one I had since starting archery limbs made out of bamboo/fibre materials and as I increased my poundage I now use maple wood/fibre. And there is a difference more stiff, more powerful at the same poundage and a nice snappy strong shot.
Coach! 🫡
Thank You
Maybe worth pointing out that there are target and hunting limbs.
In the early part of my archery journey I did not like the intense graphics on target limbs and bought less decorated hunting limbs not understanding that those were rated on shorter hunting risers.
This was interesting. Newbie question: Why not a riser which is isn't 23-27", but maybe only 5-10"? I'm asking, since knowing a little about wooden bows tells me that there are certain advantages to a bow with a working grip. Thanks.
The optimal balance has gravitated towards a 25” riser for decades for a reason. It gives an efficient amount of working limb geometry while offering numerous weight tuning point options along the length of the riser.
From a competitive stance, going below this length generally is a sacrifice in tuning options; this is why I say often that shorter risers like a 23” are reserved for smaller stature archers who can’t handle a 25” in a stable manner.
As always, you are free to experiment with whatever you like. But as I’ve stated repeatedly before, what I teach is based on the cumulative experience and experimentation of top archers in competitive Barebow. You can be assured that if there was a better approach to setup, they would have all gravitated towards it over the years. Following in their proven footsteps is the fastest way for a beginner to become proficient at competitive Barebow.
@@barebowbasics Thank you very much for your thorough reply. That makes a lot of sense. I'm more interested in traditional bows without all the tuning options you mention. So, thanks to your explanation I now see why a rather long riser in this type of archery makes a lot of sense, while the same might not be the case with a traditional bow.
My point on is about 50 yards with a 36# barebow recurve. As I get older and drop to a 32# pound bow I am 79. How much will my point on change.
Unfortunately, there are simply too many variables involved to predict this, from arrow weight and point weight, to archers draw length, anchor placement and shot execution technique/grip pressure balance. The only way you will know is if you give it a try…
Where to put the limb savers on the limbs?
This is a personal preference decision. Most archers tend to put it on the limb fade; the further past the end of the limb fade, the greater the dampening effect.
So what about the scores when using different limbs?
What about them? They are up to the archer; a different set of limbs is not going to magically give an archer a higher score. This is a truth that many people don’t want to accept.
