We do not use a foam core. Our synthetic core is not the usual material used for synthetic cores.

Our hyperflex material is used in all our TXG, HEX4-H and HEX5-H limbs. It has prooven to many archers that it is very very stable.

We are confident enough that our core material is temperature stable enough, that we have sprayed our limbs Black, and some Matt black at that.

The amaythist is a very dark colour too, and we still get observations from our customers that the limbs dont change thought the day, dont need "warming up" and they can leave there bow half in the shade, and half out.

Most other target limbs are mainly white. Now we are not sure if thats because white is a crisp clear cut image to portray or is it that it reflects heat better?

Cant think of any other change that would add to inconsistancy. Our ML2 had our Hyperflex core which in many cases still being shot, and some shot hard.

But true, wood cores can be very cost effective, and a highly effective core material.
