Title: How many hunt with an ILF set up??
Post by: ron w on April 12, 2017, 09:10:00 PM
Just curious how many folks hunt with an ILF bow. I sometimes use my Zipper ILF set up to head to the woods. The bear I got in Quebec on Bear Quest #9 was killed with my Zipper with Dryad Limbs. Different risers and limbs can make just about a thing you can imagine to hunt with. So what's out there........?????

I hunt with a Sky riser and SF limbs around 45#.
I use a 13", 17" riser,  recently discovered I shoot a 25" riser best of all.  Love the versatility.

Morrison 17" all phenolic riser, and Border mediums, 6.5 Hex limbs....set at 54#'s.
With all the bows I've had, this out performs everything...compact, smooth, silent, FAST!

Been using ILF's since the Titan riser came out.

My spring turkey and fall hunting rig will be an ILF'd (by jonhdo) Dorado riser with Uukha limbs.

I still bring out my RER but for the most part my TT Titan is my hunting rig.  For me it's just way more accurate for me to shoot.  I'm sure its the elevated rest that sets it apart for me.

In 2012 I killed a buck with my Sky TDX 15" and win win limbs at 54#, it was the quietest bow I had owned. Don't have it anymore like my Bear A mag better.

I do, too! 19" Morrison that I purchased from Ron W.  Limbs, well I have a few options. Currently using some foam core carbon target recurve limbs with some Onestringer limb covers.  Low 40# weight.

I have used one in the past and successfully taken deer but I never could get it quiet enough to suit me. I decided to just use it occasionally for target. Matter of fact I don't think I have shot it in over a year.

I have a new to me set of Zipper Z4 ILF limbs coming. Can't wait to try them out. Just have to decide which riser to put them on.

I have a few different ILF risers and 4 sets of limbs which gives me many different combinations for hunting and carp shooting.

My primary this year will be my beautiful 17" Morrison riser with SF Elite plus limbs or my Dryad longbow limbs...or my new 19" Dryad riser with WW Inno limbs.

I would post pics, but alas...can't post them here from your computer.

I recently picked up a 15" Morrison wood riser and paired it with SF Premium plus limbs. It got it's first test shooting tonight, but it feels like a smooth set up. I just need to get more knowledgeable at tuning.

I received my new to me Zipper ILF Z4 limbs....they are impressive. Quick and carbon ping that some limbs have. Put them on a 17" Zipper riser to make a 64" bow.
