Several manufacturers produce limbs for compound bows, with some of the most well-known brands including Mathews, Hoyt, Bowtech, and PSE. These companies design and engineer limbs using advanced materials like carbon and fiberglass to enhance performance and durability. Additionally, custom limb makers may also produce specialized limbs for specific needs or preferences.
A compound bow consists of a riser, limbs, cams, strings, cables, and a grip. The riser is the central part where the limbs are attached. Limbs store and release energy when the bow is drawn.
