Bow Limbs

GH Ceramic Carbon Ellipse Limbs

These limbs will shoot an arrow at the same speed as a set of limbs that are 2 lbs. stronger.
The 's' shape of the draw force curve gives a greater feeling of smoothness to the shooting action.

Wish List

A bow with magnetic field sensor stabilisation, so I can hold it steady. (Finally the arrow rest is available. One step closer.)
A sight with self-centering target lock, so I can aim steady.
A self correcting arrow that hits the center of the target no matter how you let it go, except that would be cheating.
A brain implant, so I can concentrate like a Gold Medal winning archer.
