Customer Reviews
This is an absolutely beautiful riser. Super sturdy, a bit heavy at first but you get used to it. A joy to shoot.
This is a good starting ILF riser if you wanted to take your target archerg up a notch. Not too cheap and basic but not too expensive.
It is made out of aluminum so it is heavier but you'll get used to it.
one thing to consider is that the bolts need retightening out of the box. Best way to do this is to buy a loctite or threadlocker then re **** and apply.
A few months ago I bought a red Kinetic Arios2 riser and I quite like it. My wife tried it a few times and decided she wanted one too. So we bought her a blue one.
My new bow set up "feels" better than my original non-ILF bow. I'm still a beginner so I can't say that my new riser has dramatically improved my shooting or if I'm just getting better as I learn to shoot. But the riser feels good, and things are on track. So, most importantly, no regrets; I think the price point of the riser helps with that.
I haven't had other ILF risers to compare against this one but I can say that this one feels good and helps me shoot straight.
Bow sizing based on archer's height for Olympic Recurve
Olympic Recurve bows typically range in overall size from 66" to 70". Below is a rough guideline for new archers getting started in the sport.
- 5'5" or shorter = 66" bow
- 5'6" to 5'9" = 68" bow
- 5'10" or taller = 70" bow
The Height of a modern Olympic Recurve bow is dictated by a combination of the riser size and the limb size. Combining long limbs with two different size risers will result in two different size bows. The typical Olympic riser size is either 23, 25" and 27".
Bow sizing based on archer's Draw Length for Traditional Takedown
Please note, traditional recurve draw length is typically shorter than compound. If transitioning always scale down at least half an inch for draw length.
For Adults
- 5'5" or shorter = 60" - 62" bow
- 5'6" to 5'9" = 62" - 66" bow
- 5'10" or taller = 66" - 68" plus, bow
These are rough guidelines for new archers so they get the most out of their new traditional equipment. For some takedown bows limb length is not a choice. After some experience you may find you like longer or shorter limbs.
The Height of traditional takedown bows will often be dictated by a combination of the riser size and the limb size. A 58" bow for example can be made up of any combination of limb and riser size that creates an overall length of 58".
Traditional Takedown bows can come in sizes anywhere from 52" all the way up to 70". Bows that are longer in length are typically used in tournament situations while bows shorter in total length are used for hunting.
Age and Experience guideline
- 14 years old or younger = poundage should be the as their age. Example 12 years old should be shooting 12# bow.
- 18 to 14 years old = 16# to 20# depending on body build and height
- Adult: Beginner = under 20#, Intermediate 22# to 28#, Advanced with experience = 30# and up.
