Not sure about everyone else but I think that is cool as hell.

It would make dragging game easier after a hunt if you could break it in two like you did and pack it away.

Great idea, awesome concept.  This will really give people a large versatility, for limbs swap out and traveling with it.  Great idea Randy. :archer2:

I like it.

I've always bought vehicles that would perform multiple functions. When my boys were young, we had a couple minivans that could be configured for travel, carpooling, shopping, camping, hunting, etc. I now have a basic 4 door pickup. Neither vehicle type turns any heads, but they did/do literally everything a vehicle can do except win races, lol.

I used to carry a Swiss Army knife. I now use a multi-tool almost daily. Neither one of those knife types get oohed and aaahed over like the beauties made and shown in the knife forum. But they perform the tasks for which they are designed very well.

Randy's new innovation will allow me to use the very same riser, with the very same grip, in every possible situation I desire - now, and into the future. I love to do pack-in hunts and prefer a 2pc for the ease. This bow covers it. I like shooting longbows and recurves. This bow covers it. As I get older and have the opportunity to travel to more shoots, I may want to drop weight a little for 3D's and maybe shoot multiple classes. This bow covers it. - All with the same exact grip in every situation. I see this multi-tool riser as being another way to help me become an overall better shooter by never needing to switch bows, just limbs, if so desired.

Bonus advantage: I see so many beautiful bows created by wonderful craftsmen, but simply don't choose to own multiple bows with different grips and feels. Now, if I want to hunt with both longbow and recurve, and drop a few pounds for both classes in 3D, I can get 4 gorgeous sets of limbs to use on the same riser and have the added convenience of a quick, simple breakdown for travel. I can experience ultimate utility in a bow AND turn some heads - unlike my minivan.  :biglaugh:

It's going to be shipped to a repeat customer on Monday. 
He was on the list for another bow and this one is close to his specs and he took a liking to it. Knowing him as well as I do it's safe to say I'm 99% sure it's sold! Lol

Thank you everyone for the kind words!!

Ive studied this for a few days and think its pretty damn neat.  2pc for field breakdown and 3pc if you damage and need to replace a limb. 

Swiss Army Bow!  And gorgeous.

 Very interesting.  Versatile, portable and can handle a great northern quick mount quiver. I prefer 3 piece td's but intrigued by 2 piece . Any loss in strength from having 3 points of attachment?

No sir. Absolutely not. I basically build a standard 3 piece bow with a 3/4" g10 ibeam. Then once that is done I fit the riser for a carbon fiber and fiberglass sleeve. I have never seen nor heard of this system failing if properly reinforced. (Standard is 1/4" g10)
Also, the weakest point of any bow will almost always be the shelf, with a 3/4" g10 ibeam this riser is without a doubt stronger than a typical riser.
There are no alignment issues either due to very tight tolerances in both the limb bolts/pins, and the sleeve handle and tennon.
I am completely confident and satisfied with this system and after months of testing I see nothing I would change.

Randy, that is brilliant. I think it's safe to say that when I get the funds together to buy my Primal Tech "Apex" ( :saywhat: ), it's going to be a 4-piece...

Thanks for the detailed response Randy.  I'm impressed with the aesthetics of your bows and look forward to shooting your pass around bow.
