Bit weird, like most Italian artforms, I must admit. When I saw the thing I had to dig a little up about it. Been some interest on some U.K. sites, first time I've seen anything over here though. Main reason for its being used seems to be ILF capability. Don't use large feathers or vanes with it, some talk about clearance with them. Nothing else I've heard or read yet.

I kinda like it, like the way it is a continuos arc from limb to limb, from what i can see it looks like it may have a little flex in the riser, but i bet it shoots sweet with those dampers/spacers.
It's had good reviews and it's popular amongst target archers, cheap as well in comparison to a Hoyt. It looks well engineered and If they did a 21" i might be tempted, with a set of top end border limbs at 62" it would be an F1 of a barebow. |

it would be good for hunting i spose cos it is light but most recurves are light any way bit weird for i'm into more simple things | ||

Custom Built Archery used to stock them I looked at it when I went for looking for a new bow a few years ago I thought that they shot quite well actually and a bit different | ||

Looks like one for really really rich people to me.
I think I will stay with my bendy stick.

to be honest as a riser it shot really well and wasnt to expensive when u put it at the side of some of the Hoyts and is individual but to be hoenst I'm glad that I bought my nemesis.
Although I do like Dawns KG1 as well

I have one of these (in fact I had two 23" ones at one stage but sold one - wanted new limbs!). Nice riser to be honest and very sweet to shoot - very quiet. Shot one barebow for a couple of local comps and didnt have any clearance problems with 3" feathers on allys. The arrow rest assembly has about 4mm "up-down" adjustment. Something to watch for in case anybody is tempted by a used one - when first produced there were two different versions - one was specific for barebow as the target version had two "bumps" in the sight window and was declared illegal for barebow by FITA. I believe production was rationalised and now theres just one version without the bumps. Opinion - well like most risers it can shoot better than me! Little bit of flex - arent Hoyt using that as a selling point now? Heard some stories about loose bolts etc - never happened to me in two years of use. I reckon its good value for money -provided you leave the bolts alone its no more complicated than any other target riser with a ZT rest. Oh, thats the other thing - if you dont like the ZT rests then its not for you ; cant see how you would fit anything else! |
