Fastflight with Challenger Craft Limbs

[Big Red]

Currently have Samick Agulla with Challenger Craft 32lb limbs. Can these limbs take fastflight or do i need to upgrade .

[Shirt]

Yes they can.

Thanks for that

Yep, no problem used Fastflight with Winstar and Challenger Craft limbs.

General rule of thumb - new string material + old limbs = bad idea. Q.V, Fast flight on a wooden bow.

How old is "old"? I've got a 25 (or more) year old KG1 which could certainly take fastflight (hell, it could cope with *kevlar*, which was a tougher proposition). It's not really an "age" thing, so much as a "quality" issue. I suspect a fair number of "wooden" bows are well able to take fastflight as well (anything from Border, for example).

What I think you're trying to say is "don't use it on a training bow". I'd probably include the plastic or metal handled trainers in that category as well...

Just to back that up, I used 450 Plus on my old KG1 (not quite that old, I think) and it was fine. Border also supply all their traditional recurves and flatbows with flemish twist Fastflight strings, as I recall.

Yeah - that makes more sense. My bad ops:.

I have hoyt FX limbs , shot twics and a marksman Ikon riser , couple of years old . Bad idea using fast flite ? If so , what would be recommended as I was told not to use dacron ?

Did I miss something?? What's wrong with fastflight on that set up?
