I shot the buffalo atba dealer and was waiting on a Tiburon to come in. The buffalo was smooth and I draw 31 inch however for the money I would get a ******** ilf. Just my 2 pennys

There are a lot of good ILF combo's,personal choice for me.I like the metal riser ILF,you can change grips if you want to fit your shooting.I have a 17" Morrison ILF metal riser with a few different limb sets.Some like the wood riser ILF,so many to choose from.I also have a Hoyt Buffalo,great bow also.It uses Hoyt Formula system,similar to an ILF but different.With an ILF you have a ton more limb choices.

Look at the Hoyt Excel Riser with black max wood or carbon limbs for a great intro to ILF. Really nice shooting bows, easy to tune up and simple as anything to get great arrow flight. I use a $2 hoyt pro hunter stick on rest and I can shoot just about anything out of it.

At the price, you can't beat it. Had a Hoyt dorado with an ILF conversion and this bow shoots better and is cheaper new.

I have a LONG 30-31 inch draw and shoot the 23" riser with 45# carbon limbs in medium for a 64" bow. It's the only bow I have now and I do all my hunting with it.

If I were to pick between the two I would go for the Tiburon.   That is just a cool looking rig. If you wanted upgraded limbs you will have fewer choices but Border makes aftermarket formula limbs. Sky used to make formula limbs to but they must have quit.
