Title: New 15" ILF riser from Black Creek Bows
Post by: Blackhawk7204 on February 13, 2012, 06:31:00 PM
Here are some photos of a prototype ILF riser made by Black Creek Bows. This is a prototype 15" riser I built for myself, the production model may be a little different.

Nice looking riser! Good luck with your new design .

I'm very pleased to se you have a little lower grip. There is a market for low-wrist ILF risers, if someone will just make some. I would LOVE to have a 17" ILF riser with the same grip as my Pronghorn LB.
When you start making them, let me know!

The grip can be made low, med or high wrist. This one is just a little lower than the medium grip.

We can make you one in 17" with whatever grip you like.

Wow, that is some very nice work.

All those people who said ILF hunting risers would never amount to much, or that it wouldn't even work on short handles, sure were mistaken.

Good thing follks like Blackhawk didn't listen.    :thumbsup:

Jim,

what's the limb's increase in poundage compared to a 25" riser?

I don't currently have any ILF limbs that are marked for a 25" riser but the limbs I have are 45# on a 17" SKY metal riser and are #49# on this 15" riser. I will have access to some that are marked for the long risers in a week or 2.

there are 3 more risers besides the one pictured that are being finished right now and should be at Tannehill this weekend.
I will try and get some photos posted later.
