Abstract
In certain embodiments the limb pocket of an archery bow includes at least one rocker positioned between the limb pocket and the bow limbs. The rocker is designed to rest or loosely fit in a groove in the limb pocket, and is arranged between the groove and fulcrum points on the limb. The rocker has a length with an upper face which defines one or two limb channels; with each channel engaging the butt end of a limb. In certain embodiments, the rocker sidewalls flex as the limb pocket is assembled to apply a clamping force to the limbs.
