Word has it they're every bit as good as the ones Kevin made.

My wife wanted a heavier set of limbs for her XR....this was right before Kevin sold the company to Chester and Ike. Well, Kevin had the boys make them and they turned out GREAT. Chester actually brought them from Bozeman to the Wiscinsin Traditional Archers banquet back in 2015.  I would have no reservation on them making a new set of limbs for your bow.

I had the privilege of shooting three RER bows custom made for a friend of mine by Chester. I shot them two days ago. This was my first experience with RER. They were OUTSTANDING! craftsmanship, finish, cast and grip comfort were all topnotch. I am currently saving my money to get one some day!

That's funny Bob. I have the same problem with your state. I usually spell it Illinoiz.

From everything that I heard from Kevin those guys are building the bows up to his high standards.

I shot a bunch of them at Montana Bowhunters Convention and they all looked and shot great. Some were down right beautiful. Im stopping by the shop on Thursday to make a decision...

Knowing Kevin's ethics as well as I do...he would never sell his fine company to anyone he wasn't confident could do as good a job as he did.

Have confidence in RER!

They are awesome shooters and still of great quality.

That is what I was thinking...although with the great LXR that I have I do not feel any need to own another RER

I set out a while ago to reduce my herd of 40 bows...And I am finally down to 42
