Yep baseline on the riser is $300. Of course you can customize it as much as you want with exotic woods and phenolic options for a little more.

Not to shabby.  I like the it with the longbow limbs better than the recurve limbs.

Nice job Wingnut! The riser looks very sharp and clean, no insane metal clamps and edges. Very aesthetically pleasing!

Guys, we got to fondle it at the Rod J. clinic and she feels REAL SWEET in the hand, makes me wish I didn't already have a bow coming from somewhere else. And those static limbs were as quiet as the longbow limbs too.

Mike,
Any plans on a 17" riser for those of us needing a longer bow due to a longer draw length?

Man that is so sweet, and yep I'm very partial to the static recurve as well. Could not find on the website though. Will have another look. I really love ILF, gives such choices and versatility..and that riser would look good in my collection.

Doh!! OK found it. Lovely.

Yep we are already working on the 17" riser.  Shouldn't be too long but with a full work load and trying to design, things take time.

LOL
