Uukha ILF limbs heavier draw weights

[nevadabugle]

So I think the Gobi, Selengas, Altais have been discontinued for a new hunting line. That may be why the selection is low. I was talking with the RMS guys over the weekend about it. Give them a call. I bet they can help you out.

I might do that. Cheers.

Go to alt services[ alternative sporting services] UK or EU they are probably the most competitive in pricing anywhere. But do not sell Nika archery in China short they are easily the equal of uukha, I have both brands.
At the end of the day it is not equipment that makes the archer and their is plenty of limbs on the market that are within 10% of uukha and cost a quarter of the price. Dont go throwing your money away on b/s.

Besides the Alternative Archery route the best prices I have seen on risers n limbs is Johns custom archery, ringbold Virginia .... Super fast delivery n " no " I'm not there buddy or have loot invested or a horse in there stable . Just facts once again no b/s . BTW if someone not shooting there bow of choice they just might be " HENPECKED" and not even know it .

He has an email, [email protected]. He also sells on tradtalk quit a bit. I 2nd the Nika n3s. I’ve had a most of the uukhas except the newest ones. The n3’s are similar in feel to the older ex1evo2’s from uukha but faster. I haven’t had them try to take my head off like the Selena’s either. I’ve only had them up to 54lbs( 42# longs on 19” p2p @ 31” draw, 2 turns out). They have 50lb mediums on a 25” riser. I’d bet you get 56-57lbs+ @ 28” on a satori. More, bolts down. I know Ryan Rothaar shot Nikas at 61lb in Africa, but I don’t recall his dl for sure but I think 28.

Keep in mind, Uukha's shoot like a limb 10 pounds heavier (as a very general rule). Also, the pound rating for Uukha's is given in the middle of their range, not the maximum, if I remember correctly. So, a 50 pound rated limb would actually be a 52-54 pound limb depending on riser. Put that limb on a 17" riser instead of a 19, and you have a 54-56 pound set-up that hits like most recurve limbs in the 65 pound range.

Are they noisy?
I got some 40# long Uukha limbs on the 19" Satori for my son. I just got finished making a string and putting on silencers etc and it has a noticeable after shot resonance. Looks like mainly the limb tips vibrating.

If you pluck the string you hear it twang for a second or so.
Do that with my Border and you get a thud and nothing else.

My uukhas aren't overly noisy....about the same as other limbs. The Nikas are a tiny bit quieter I think.

No, Uukhas are bizarrely quiet for how high performance they are. You likely need to increase your brace height. 8"+, maybe even up to 8.5".

Might try that. Brace is 7 ⅝" at the moment
