SF Carbon Foam Limbs

[JohnK]

You could always look at the third page here. They're not SF limbs, but they're pretty good nonetheless, and very well priced

someone did tell me (but i bet they could have been wrong) that SF limbs are WinWIn ones with different logos

Is that correct ? anyone know ?

Not that I am swapping away from my trusted oldie borders, but new archers in the club are asking what medium price setup to go for

They are made by W&W and have "Made in Korea" on them. They are similar to Everest Pros, I think, though not identical. Mine are nice, though I miss my Synergys (which snapped). They seemed smoother.

We are having a bit of a clear out, as JohnK so kindly tried to point out. So keep an eye out. We might have something some one is interested in.
They are mostly the different sizes. We have been clearing them out for some time now.


LouLou SAC: We do have some ML2's of that spec. But they are not the SF you looking for. We dont sell Korean Limbs here (sorry that sounded like, Im looking for a Banana!, Well Ive got and Orange is that of any help...)

What are the border ML limbs made of??

Are they about the same as hoyt 300's or better?

How much would postage cost?

Does anyone have a picture?

They are A sythetic core limb, XP10 Carbon with Glass.
I'll leave the performance alone, and let other coment on that one.
They are new.

This shouldn't go down as limbs failing in normal use, as no-one normally dry-fires limbs.

It's a funny thing, but I've heard of quite a few pair of limbs going in the UK (Colin Geenes' CarbonPlus, G3, and something funny with his 900CX apparently (Check with Chris B), then that pair at BUTC which led to comments about some other SHCs breaking...) whereas in 6 years in France I have only heard of 2 breakages, Thibault Montagne's XQ-1s which I can assure you made a loud bang, and a pair of Synerzy which delaminated in a major tournament in 2006 (I think).

Do you shoot really thin strings over here or something?! For comparison we tend to use about 16-18 strand D-75thin.

Well i've gone and done it i bought a pair from Bow Sports because custom Bows didn't have the one's i want in stock.

Thanks everyone for all your help

Yep, both David's and Maciek's SF-SHCs have gone in exactly the same way within one month. In both cases the top limb delaminated at full draw when the back layer fractured across the limb.
However I've been using mine for 18 months now since I stopped being a novice, shooting ~500 arrows a week all that time and have never had any hint of a problem from them. I really like them.
Both of my team-mate's limbs were bought at the beginning of the indoor season from Alternative, so it's probable that it was a faulty batch. Probably best avoid ones bought at that time.
