Another ILF ?

[SAM E. STEPHENS]

I have a few now , nice cause you can adjust them and switch limbs around. What has sold me on them is you can buy limbs super cheap used and new. I set one up with a screw-in flipper rest and shoot plastic vanes also. I want a set of longbow limbs to try out next....

Also I like ( with my cheap rigs ) they shoot great and take a beating and it don't hurt my feelings. Been bounced around in boats and out in the mud duck hunting. Carried around on my motorcycle on trips and beat around and so far so good...

The limbs are nice. You should keep the Excel but I'm thinking you'll want to upgrade in the near future.

Lancaster Archery has quite a lineup of risers and limbs. Great way to mix/match a set up of your choice. Their friendly TechXPerts can answer any questions.

ILF bows (risers & limb combinations) enjoy one huge advantage over bolt-down bows - the ability to mix and match limbs and risers.  Just remember that ILF is by definition and necessity a compromise.  If you design a riser and a limb that will work with everything the combination (brand X riser and brand Y limbs) may or may not be an optimized combination.  Deal with knowledgeable folks and you will be quite satisfied.

Agree totally with John, anyone can set up an ILF rig but getting the best performance out of it can be tricky mixing components.

I have  an excel and like it. Can't speak for the carbon limbs but the SF Premium+ glass/wood limbs are good performers, 187 at 11ish gpp (probably helped quite a bit by  my 31 inch draw length)

Ranger 3, good pick on the Excel and SF Premium limbs........ solid choice! I think it's the best value in ILF risers. I bought mine for 150 several years ago. It has great geometry and everything you need in a riser.

Over the years it has worn limbs from 24-48 lbs. it's been shot off the shelf and elevated rests. It's killed deer, shot 3 d tournaments and gone bowfishing.

It is now serving as a backup to competition rig.

Great bow! You will love it!

What John said.. Mix and match until you find what floats your boat. There is always a market for ILF limbs, so you will never get hurt trying any limb you want, if that limb it doesn't do it for you sell it and try another. Same with the risers.
