Abstract: Embodiments of a limb retainer system to secure bow limbs to a riser on an archery bow. The limb retainer system includes a first part and a second part that are disposed, respectively, on a front and a back of the riser to position the limb elements to retain a shooting string under tension. In one embodiment, the first part secure the limb elements in position on the riser. The second part is configured to rotate relative to the first part, thereby allowing an end user to adjust the tension of the bowstring. This configuration offer a robust, cost effective design that prevents unwanted movement of the bow limbs and preserves adjustment necessary for adequate tuning of the archery bow.
