metal riser bows. your opinion

[Bill Carlsen]

I suppose that those of  you who have Harleys or other bikes don't mind them being metal....or your favorite knife....or your favorite broadhaead. I've had and shot metal risers since the 60's and for me they are better with the same limbs than a wood risered bow in terms of how well they shoot. As for being cold in cold weather, that was problematic until I got a DAS. The grips have eliminated that concern for me. As for performance I truly believe that although the metal riser on my DAS is superior engineering, I have found that the better the limb I put on that riser the better the bow will shoot. Metal risers have many positives going for them in the performance domain, but, again, two different quality limbs on my DAS riser gives me two bows that are not equal.

ARCHERY IS ARCHERY....but down south it rains a bunch with Lightening and when you combine a metal riser,

If boring means I can shoot more and not bother with spending time tillering bows then I am all for boring.

Transitional? Hardly !!! I've been shooting for over 50 years and I like my Quinn the best of all the bows I've owned. It's got the perfect grip for me and is a great shooter. !!
