Interesting yes. Informative, not so sure. Why was the Limbsaver on the opposite end as the Bowjax? Were the two devices placed the same distance from the loop? He had a caliper but you don't know, a few 32nds could make a huge difference. You can't see what he is measuring because his hands are in the way. It looks to me like the Limbsaver is closer to the loop than the Bowjax.

I wouldn't make any purchasing decisons based on that random clip from YouTube.

I would also add that you have a bow limb fixed in a vice at two ends, pulled in the middle and released. This is not how a bow limb works and these are not the same forces acting on a bow limb when the bow is shot. Even if the Bowjax really ourperfomed the Limbsaver in this test it is completely irrelevant.
