No reason you could not hunt with it. I will be taking it to Texas Shoot out javelina hunt in Feb.
It has a rather high gloss finish, but not too much. I should still be able to get close to javelina.

I would think the carbon fiber would be stiff enough or strong enough without the extra torsion bar.

Festivus · January 20, 2010, 05:33:00 PM

But the bar makes it cool

. I like it alot. Too bad hoyt can't take some lessons from these guys in how to design a riser.

Is that going to make a 64" bow with their shorter limbs? Bob

Cherokee Scout · January 20, 2010, 06:25:00 PM

Yes, I have a set of shortest limbs (58" on 14" riser) and this bow is 62" with the short limbs.

OK, who dipped it for you?

Unless Johns been holding out on me, there is no carbon fiber riser from A&H.

Cool look though.

Cherokee Scout · January 20, 2010, 06:32:00 PM

Mike, you are right, A&H does not make a carbon riser. I had their riser copied by a group in China.
I can get these risers made for about $59 plus shipping They weigh only about 1/2 pound.
How many would you like?

Folks.........this is a joke, this is an A&H riser, camo dipped by Lonnie at camodip.net.

wingnut · January 20, 2010, 06:43:00 PM

well if thats what you are doing, shame on you.

That is about as low as I have ever heard. The fact that you are listing it as an A&H riser puts you in position for litigation.

trashwood · January 20, 2010, 06:58:00 PM

Maybe I am not in love. Is having another bowyers riser copied ethical?

Cherokee Scout · January 20, 2010, 07:02:00 PM

You are right again Mike.
This riser is in fact made by a Trad Gang Sponsor, A&H.
It was film dipped by another TradGang Sponsor Camodip.net.
Just having fun with a couple of great sponsors' products.
Trashwood........you can love again.
Everyone should have known that no such thing as a $59 carbon riser, even from China.
Everything listed is made in U.S.A.
It does look good doesn't it?
I will post some pictures of the limbs in a couple of days.

Blackhawk7204 · January 20, 2010, 07:05:00 PM

Here is another view of that riser.

That riser was a little difficult to dip but it came out real nice.

rastaman · January 20, 2010, 07:06:00 PM

Man oh man John...i was just about to post that you had to be tongue in cheek jerking our chains!

Pretty riser...i believe you dipped one of my metal A & H risers when you had sipsey river or someone you guys had partnered up with.
