Title: ILF bow?
Post by: C. Johnson on March 18, 2018, 12:32:00 PM

Hey guys,

I'm just a fat, bald plumber, so please forgive my ignorance.  I honestly don't know this.

What is an ILF bow? What does ILF stand for?

Is it just a 3 piece take down with interchangeable limbs for different draw weights?

I didn't find a definition in the vocabulary section.

I currently only build one piece bows, but I've been considering coming up with a take down model and I don't know what difference there is (if any) between a 3 piece takedown and an ILF bow.

Thanks guys!

International Limb fitting

If you look at Lancaster Archery, they have a lot of stuff for them.

They have a few lbs weight adjustment and you can adjust each limb separately for tillering.

I made one ILF riser and one set of limbs.
