Approximately how much weight will I gain...

(1/5) > >>

ssrhythm:
What poundage gain can you expect per inch of bow length reduction?  I can not find my TBB with that info in it...my house is a wreck and in need of a major spring cleaning!

Russ:
ohhhh... i cant remember for sure... but I believe for every inch you pike, it gains 5#. Just make sure you don't lose the 5# retillering! that's what happened to me  ;)

bradsmith2010:
you can tie a nock where you gonna pike and see,,

PEARL DRUMS:
Very little on most bows. 1-3# per inch per limb. Generally you have to scratch a bit on the limb you shortened to get the tiller back in tune, that takes away a majority of your gain.

George Tsoukalas:
About 5# which may be offset by more set. Jawge
