Advantage Archery 208 735 9878 - ask for Caleb. In Idaho so it will take some shipping but he has people send him bows from all over the place to work on. Excellent service and a great guy to deal with. Tell him Trent gave you his number.

maybe you wanna get a hold of Barnsdale Archery,Dave builds some of the best limbs in the world for any brand bow. and to be honest i would have him build 45-55 lb. limbs and yes he will put them on your bow too.cell > 906 282 8327

Any Hoyt dealer should be able to do this. Keep in mind that if you swap cams to (which may be needed) you probably need new strings/cables. However for just a limb swap you may not need anything other than new limbs. Swapping them out takes about 20-30 minutes on a bow press.

Full Draw Archery Huntsville ala. Been there for years and a very big Hoyt dealer.
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

I don't know. I'm in the same boat so to speak. Looking like I may be better off just selling it off and purchasing a new one...

ken that will be last option for me. i absolutely love these 2 bows and shoot em well. i'm not interested in the past parallel limb bows in the least. i used to have to have the latest and greatest bows and sold/bought a new one every year. till i bought the hoyt katera in 2008 i believe then the alphaburner in 09 or 10. i'm not really sure whether i need to swap cams or just limbs to tell the truth.
thanks for all the replies,
Big Ed

Should just be a limb swap.
Any tech w a good press should be able to do it.
The issue would be getting the lighter limbs.
A Hoyt dealer might have some out of production limbs stashed, maybe even new ones. Worth a call.
