limb noise
I've never had a limb crack before and was just wondering if it will always make a noise as you draw if it is cracking or is it sometimes only visible? and what should be looked for and where do they usually crack? do they crack where the bolt is or is it common for them to crack at the fork right below the cam or wheel?

RE: limb noise
Some times you can hear a creak when drawing sometimes you wont hear anything.
I have seen them cracked right down the middle from limb bolt to Y at the cam on others I have seen them crack across the limb at the limb pocket.
AlsoI have seen feathering along the edge of the limbs.

RE: limb noise
Is it making a cracking noise when you draw? Maybe it isn't the limb. A dry rocker/limb pocket can do this. Maybe it's time for a good tear down and lube job. Break out the white lithium grease.
