WTB limbs for a Yamaha yth 58" (take-down recurve)

#1 Post by fieldpoint » Tue Jul 06, 2010 9:46 pm

I am hoping someone out there has a set of 50lb limbs for the above bow which I purchased about 1980,, or a complete bow, as my present set of limbs are a bit knocked around.
Cheers

Morning Brian.

What model is your Yamaha? YTH seems odd but I am only familiar with their target models. There are two types of limb fittings for Yamaha's and I understand they are not interchangeable. eg 'YTSL', 'YTSL II' and 'EX' take the type 1 limb fittings whilst those from the 'EX Alpha' onwards take the type 2 limb fittings.

You may find it difficult to find limbs as they tend to be a bit rare.

Hello Grahame, trust you are well. did you know Lakeside are having a traditional shoot 17 and 18 July?

My Yamaha is labelled "yth" on the bottom limb, as you see in attached photo. I believe it stands for 'take-down hunter',,,,, which it has done!!!
The limbs slot into riser and are 'tool free'.

I will be away this weekend.
Catch you around.
