ILF question
« on: December 09, 2013, 10:18:00 AM »
I'm playing around with a ILF bow for the first time. It's a 19" border riser, the nock point seems to like 5/8-3/4" high with 1/16" positive tiller. shoots good but that high nock point bugs me. All my other bows are 1/4-3/8". My question is, can i adjust tiller in any direction to drop nock point? And I shoot split. Thanks, Shane

The beauty of ILF.....you can try anything you want. See if it makes a difference for you.
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

Increase positive tiller and you will need a lower nock point.
shoot straight shoot often

When I shot split-finger, my ILF was positive  1/4" with a 1/2" nock point.  But, play around a bit and find what works best for you.
