Post by: wasapt on February 18, 2008, 12:38:00 AM
Curious who shoots a metal riser and how you like it. I'm thinking of getting the Dalaa.

I have a Hoyt Rambo Quarf and just bought a Black Bear Warf riser. Just need to find some limbs for it. I have own a DAS master riser, a Quinn, a Black Bear Quarf and a Bear Minuteman. Gave the Bear to my brother-in-law, when he showed an interested in archery, sold the Black Bear Quarf, traded the DAS and sold the Quinn to a good friend who needed a good bow. I am currently looking for a lefty A&H metal riser if anyone has one to sell. The grip on the Hoyt and Quinn is very similar and I really like that style of grip.  The Quinn bows are really hard to beat.  The performance will match or exceed most big name bows out there, fit and finish is great and the Quinn's are really great people to deal with.

Black Swan, A&H, DAS, Hoyt, Quinn, etc. I still own the Swans and all the bows have been shooters.

My Quinn shoots great.  I tried the DAS and the TITAN. I liked them both, but my budget said Quinn.

I have shot a Jefferey QT takedown for about 20 years now. I also have and shot a Bear 76'3er, a Bear Minuteman, and a Bear Custom T/D (mag riser) that I need a set of limbs for.

Metal risers remind me of my target dayze and these dayze I avoid any metal bows like the plague - gimme wood, real PURTY 'n' WARM wood.  :D

I have an old Black Widow take down, probably early to mid-50's era. Still a sweet shooter.

Have a Quinn, agree that you won't find any better for the money.  Not many a whole lot better period.  Still prefer wood most of the time, it just tickles my fancy better.  I shoot the Quinn to show out.

I shoot a 17 in. Dalaa and a DAS Elite with Winex limbs.I have sold my pretty wood bows.I shoot them because I am more accurate with them than anything else I have tried.The riser is nearly indestructable and if you do something stupid and break a limb you can have another set in a week.

I shoot a PSE Coyote. I know its only a 250 dollar bow. But i've been shooting a bunch of different makes over the past few months, trying to find my next bow for a graduation gift for myself, and have yet to find a bow that shot as smooth and quiet. Great bow for the money in my opinion.

Quinn Stallion. I agree with all that has been said about them already. Great bow and great price.
