Who here is shooting a Bivouac Backland(ilf) bow? The bowyer is Jim Belcher. This would be my first ILF bow. The Backland is a 15" riser and I'm considering recurve limbs. My draw length is 28". Looking for opinions.

In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I was looking for info about them too awhile back but couldn't find any reviews. What I have heard has all be good. People also say that the backland riser is really well suited to use longbow limbs with too.

[attachment=2,msg2952390]I bought one late October.  Love it so far. I got the longbow limbs with some old Walls camo under clear glass.  Looks great to me. Shoots really nice.  Jim and Georgia do a fine job. Great communication and really helpful answering questions. I've been running a kwickie quiver and the standard simple hard plunger that comes with the riser. Shelf is tapped for rest and elevated rest as well. Only thing I dislike is the Berger holes are not crowned and recessed so you can't run the plunger from the push archery website. Factory plunger is good and can easily shoot off the crowned shelf or put on an elevated or flipper rest. [attachment=1,msg2952390][attachment=3,msg2952390]

Do a search for the DAS DX5 since they are the same riser. May be more people familiar with the 3Rivers riser. I just picked up a DX5 used to try with some DAS longbow limbs since my other ILF risers seem to have too much angle in the pads. Hoping this has less angle for the longbow limbs. Really liking the adjustability of the metal ILF risers so far.
