Title: Question for ILF or Dalaa owners
Post by: Ulysseys on January 24, 2012, 06:34:00 AM
Has anyone noticed a big accuracy increase when switching to a metal riser/ilf set up or dalaa?  There are lots of nice options coming out and I'm wondering if there is a true benefit.

I wouldn't swear that you will be more accurate with a metal riser (utilizing a rest/plunger can help for sure), but the feel is much more solid to me.

Once a bow is perfectly tuned, no. It still all boils down to the shooter. In terms of tunability and forgiveness, yes.  The ability to tune a bow to an arrow is better in my opinion than tuning an arrow to a bow.

I've had metal risers since the 60's. The fact that ILF target shooters use only metal risers should tell you something. I think they are easier to tune and are more accurate as a general rule.

I wish I was a good enough shooter to tell you one way or the other........   :biglaugh:  I just like the look and feel of wood better.
