Re: marks on limbs
They look like stress marks in the Bow's finish to me. They'll be fine

Re: marks on limbs
I agree with Perry. Where are they situated on the bow limb?

Re: marks on limbs
On the on the belly underside of the limbs above the riser - does the location matter?
Re: marks on limbs
Also is there anyway to remove them?

That is a common place to see these stress marks. The marks are in the finish and not in the glass so no concern that your bow will break. If the marks get real bad the finish may let moisture in.curve wrote:On the on the belly underside of the limbs above the riser - does the location matter?
The only way would be to remove the old finish and respray the bow. How old is the bow as this isn't something that should happen to a reasonably new bow?curve wrote:Also is there anyway to remove them?
