So I wanted a 66" aluminum riser ILF recurve to string walk with. So I got a Hoyt Excel riser and slapped a brand new set of PSE Jackal, limbs that were never sold at the shop I work at, and I must say it is a solid shooter. Doesn't look too shabby either. It's 50# at my 31" draw

I now shoot an Excel. I love it. It is the best buy for the money of any I have owned.
I agree, especially for longer draw archers lookin for a 23" riser. Plus the flat black finish is perfect for hunting, very durable.
