Abstract
Various archery bows with abutting limb support are shown. One bow includes a riser that has a handle portion and first and second riser portions extending from the handle portion. The first riser portion has multiple limb contact surfaces that are spaced apart. The bow also has a first limb with a proximal end portion that has multiple external surfaces that abut and are articulable relative to the limb contact surfaces. This first limb is free-floating against the first riser portion. A second limb and a bowstring are connected to the bow as well. Tension in the bowstring is transferred to the first and second limbs. Limbs such as the first limb store energy across more of the length of the limb, have less concentrated stresses, and can be supported and dampened close to the proximal end of the limb.
