Sweet!     :thumbsup:

I like that lowered plunger hole.  I used to shoot my das with a shelf/plunger combo but I always had to build the shelf up a bit with abs.  

How short of a recurve can you make with this riser?

Fido,

ILF means International Limb Fitting system and is a (even though not defined) standard that most manufacturers use to make their risers and limbs interchangable. So you could use a riser from X-company and put on limbs from Y-company.

Hey Bob,

cool looking riser.

What is the cost and can it be shot off the shelf?

I have no idea about the cost, yet, but it can be shot off the shelf. It's pretty much like all the other risers with a flat shelf. You can use felt pads from Wal-Mart and put one on the shelf in conjunction with a low berger button. Or you can use two felt pads.
The picture shows, how to fix the pads. I found that pic at the Pirate's forum.

Yup,  I used to use a shelf/plunger combo.  The shelf was tougher than the flipper and the plunger allowed for more fine tuning and aided in release errors.  I shot my 1st generation das bows like that.

Yes it can be shot off the shelf,The lower hole is for a plunger for off the shelf, I'm not sure if you can it but the shelf is radiused. Riser without A grip is $395.00. I have low and med grips comping from Jager, They will cost $35.00 or you can use any Hoyt grip.

I still hadn't figured out who makes that riser. I like the looks of it.
