I recently picked up a warfed Hoyt Raider riser (21"). I am considering putting some high performance limbs on it and wanted some opinions from people who have done similar. I want it to pull low to mid 40's at my 32" draw. I want it for 3D and hunting. I want performance (speed), stability, quietness, and smoothness at the end of my draw cycle. I have looked at border's web site, great info but their max recommended draw lengths seem to fall short of mine. I was also looking at Uukha. I have also come across the Morrison max 4, and Dryad ACS RC, but don't have much info on them. Can anyone with experience with any of these limbs point me in a good direction.

You can't go wrong with dryad xl limbs. The acs are the best but even the lower end limbs are sweet.

Aren't Border's limbs rated on a 17 or 19-inch riser. Might work on a 21-inch riser.

You are going to have a really hard time doing better than Sebastian Flute and or Win and Win when it comes to performance versus investment.

You also have to understand that high performance doesn't mean the same thing to everybody and you rarely get the best of all the things you mentioned in the same limb.

With a 32" draw, dang near any limb will be a 'high performance' limb.

I'd search more for long enough arrows if I were you! (LOL)

Only people with a 32 inch draw and experience with the limbs you suggest can answer your question.

Borders are rated on a 25 inch.

Border website leaves a lot to be desired. You're better off contacting Sid directly. I'd be very surprised if he couldn't make you comfortable with a 32 inch draw. Sid answers a lot of questions on TT. If you contact him directly, it may take a while, but he'll answer.

Hex 7.5's rewrote the book on smoothness. Sid had a pair of limbs that gained 2.4 pounds in 24 to 28 inches. Mine are in that ball park, but my draw is longer.

I would think you would be better served with a 25" riser or 27" one. 32" is a long ways. why not exploit your advantage....ron

I am shooting Uukha for the last year and are completely sold on them, I have a 17 inch riser and medium limbs for a 60 inch bow and draw almost 31 inches and have a very smooth draw. There are a lot of good laminated limbs but Uukha is a different engineered product.
