I bought a new sight for my recurve bow and need to line up the center shot with my string.
Has anyone tried clamping a recurve in to a vise meant for compound bows?
Not a press but a vise where it holds the whole bow upright by the bottom limbs.
Is there enough range that it could hold a recurve bow fairly upright
If your just looking for the vise to be an extra pair of hands while you work on it, that should be fine. You just have to make sure there is something soft between the vise plates and the limbs or riser of the bow, and don't crank it down too hard so that you don't damage the bow.
