Default 2004 BOWTECH PATRIOT VFT LIMBS #50-60

DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHAT OTHER LIMBS THIS BOW CAN USE IF I CAN'T FIND THE EXACT MODEL LIMBS???

I KNOW SOME LIMBS ARE INTERCHANGEABLE BETWEEN DIFFERENT MODELS.

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

I got my answer from Bowtech and it turns out that the only limbs that can be used for this bow is the 2004 Patriot VFT ones.

I could use the limbs from the sameyear Mighty Mite, Justice and Liberty but the deflection would not be the same. My string and cablelength would be effected. Not worth it for me.

I am still looking for Limbs 50-60 lb for this bow.

Go to http://www.barnsdalearchery.com/ and have a set custom made. Best limbs in the business. Won't cost that much more than factory limbs.

I have a 2004 Mighty Mite and a 2004 Patriot. Both are Single cam infinity VFT models with 70# limbs.
Because of health reasons I have to reduce to 60 #.
I wanted to reduce one bow initially but I wasn't sure which one so I emailed Bowtech and asked if the limbs on these two bows are the same. Their reply stated "ifyour patriot is asingle cam model they will both take the same limbs to make them 60# which would be 13", 71 deflection". This is an EXACT quote from their email.
I found a pair of 60# limbs on Archery Talk but haven't received them yet.
They're supposedly correct-we'll see.
Regarding Barnsdale Limbs- I called (906 774 1010). Send them your bow and for $150 plus return postage they will make and install their limbs. This sounds like a great deal. They have a great reputation. Factory limbs are $130 to $ 150 uninstalled from a Bowtech Dealer.
P.S.-you must set your bow to factory specs before you send it to them.

Another option is to sell yours and buy a used 60#bow.

Sorry for the rambling-too much time on my hands. (Recouperating from that health thing mentioned earlier.)
