I just got my Zipper ILF Extreme riser and I just love it. First of all dealing with Bill is beyond compare. I can't put to words the service you get backed up by a product you'll love. Earlier this year I had a chance to pick up a couple of Zipper SXT recurves and I jumped when I saw he was making ILF risers. Long story short is this, if you ever shot an Zipper, the ILF feels and shoots exactly the same. I paired this riser with a set of Sebastian Flute Carbon/Wood long limbs rated 36@28 which on my scale came out to 44@28. Dead quiet, real smooth, 100% Happy    :goldtooth:  
I'm going to try her out with a pair of Tradtech Black Max Carbon/Wood limbs and the real fun will be when I try her out with a pair of Sky Carbon/Wood longbow limbs.
I love this riser so much, I'm saving up and hope to convince Bill to make me a pair of ILF limbs with Zebrawood veneers.

I'm just getting into ILF with a metal Morrison. I was looking at Mr. Dunn's post with his new ILF risers, and I liked what I saw.I have a standard Zipper now and love it. May have to get a riser from him....just cause they are pretty.....lol!

Bill and his wife were quite patient in dealing with me at the IBO Trad World's. I was quite suprised that he wasn't sold out. On the practise range over the two days, numerous guys would frequently commenting that you need to try this one.

Wonderful people...nice bow with upper end perfomance.

Bill is always working to improve his bows and develope new products. Which limbs did you like best and why?

If I closed my eyes I wouldn't be able to know the difference between the SB Flute and the TT Black Max limbs. They felt the same on the draw and release and both were real quiet.

I also spent time with Bill and his wife at the IBO's. Awesome people!!!!!

Fell in love with a maccasar/zebra wood/foam core limbs IFL set up. I was looking for something in the low 50's at 31".The closet he had was 58 or 59 at 31". Man that bow was so smooth. Felt more like a bow in the low 50's.

Looks like I'll be calling him this week!!!!!

I take it the new riser is working for you.  :goldtooth:  Was the quiver lay up what you had in mind?

I enjoyed talking with both David and Scott last weekend.Always nice to meet good folks.One of these days I would like to get to shake Peters hand aswell.

The quiver is cool. It's one of those items you just love to look at, over and over. And yes sir it is perfect.

Always a pleasure and it was a nice way to cool my sting over my broken bow.

They just returned back from vacation and sent me an email over a week ago that they will take care of it. The issue is going to be whether or not I send the whole bow back or not.

Gents,
For those of you who haven't done business with Bill, let me tell you what it's like.

When Bill first buzzed about building ILF risers I knew I wanted one. Several emails later and I had one on order. But as things happen in our daily lives I was forced to put those plans on hold to pay for some auto repair. Not once was this an issue with Bill. We worked out a couple of resolutions and because I didn't want to hold him up, I asked him to convert my deposit towards a quiver instead. Well as the wind changes direction I got myself in a better place and Bill let me know about the risers he finished up. One glance at Sugar and I knew I wanted her. Long story, happy ending. I appreciate how much of a gentleman you are Bill, Thanks Again.
