Hey everybody, I'm new to this forum. I've been shooting compound archery for a couple years and would like to get into traditional archery. I have an old Browning Summit II that my wife bought for me years ago, but never really used. Has anybody "Warfed" one of these? I had never even...

Hi TradTalk, Longtime bowhunter and shooter, mostly compound but have been dabbling in trad for a few years. Found my way over from ArcheryTalk because I needed info on (s/q)warfing a bow. I have an early '90s era Golden Eagle Falcon Flame that blew a steel cable 15 years ago and has been...

So here's my take on a "poor mans 'high performance' ilf hunting bow." I started off with a Hoyt Excel 21" riser I picked up off of eBay for $150 and a set of das ILF carbon foam limbs (med, 51# @ my 29" draw) off of the classifieds here, again paid $150 for those. I sorta feel like I stole...

As some know, I do some leatherwork, making bracers, both bow and arrow quivers, knife sheaths....... I am starting my hand at mounted archery. Next month I will be riding in a two day mounted clinic and I decided to make a new quiver for the occasion. My current quiver just doesn't spread the...

Hey there guys i have a samick sage that i had the limb pockets fall off of. The screws holding the limb pockets on snapped when i was shooting and I am outside the warranty date for the bow so now I'm stuck with a bow without limb pockets. I was wondering if i could make this possibly fit an...

I've been very lucky in that, during my life, I've been able to visit some of the finest museums in the world. Whenever I visit, I'm always on the lookout for examples of archery equipment portrayed in works of art. Last week I was at the Hermitage museum in St Petersberg, Russia and while...

In the midst of buying, trying, selling and more recently "Gifting" bows away?...Robertfishes awesome amberboo/black glass shorts found themselves orphaned and riser-less once again as I thought..."This is Ridiculous"..and no way was I going to let them rot in a drawer. It seemed they preformed...

Just got a used black bear warf and it has truck bed liner on it, I'm wanting to do a camo pattern but I'm wondering what I should do. I'm going to strip it, but after that what process should I go through ? Priming? Sanding? I've been thinking about using some of the higher durability krylon...

My current project is to assemble a good inexpensive ILF takedown for informal target practice and hunting, with a wooden riser and a couple sets of "hybrid" longbow limbs -- one (say, 35 pounds) for target practice on form and one (say, 55 pounds) for hunting. Over all length 62-64". Your...

Had a set of XQ-1 limbs and a PSE warf that had 2 different camo patterns. Well, thought it needed a face lift. Here are some before pics. Here are the mid way. I still need to put a clear on them and may put a little green on them. The colors are dark earth brown and sand. Will post a final...

This project started years ago when I first became interested in recurves/longbows after years of shooting compounds. I stumbled across this site, gained a whole lot of knowledge from the good folks here. I also learned about "Warfs" and thought to myself that is a great idea and have been...

My first warf turned out great ..2007 xforce riser with das ilf pads..at 9gpp its doing 198fps at 30 in draw..with dryad recurve limbs..ends up like a 23 in riser with longs is 68 in bow..gonna try some medium long bow limbs on it to..super quiet at shot. This site all of a sudden won't let me...

I wonder if any of the forum members who make their own leather equipment (quivers, bracers, knife sheaths etc) could help with technical issue on decorating a molded knife sheath ... here's the story .. A few years ago I purchased an excellent book, Knives and Scabbards by Cowgill, De...

I have an Hoyt Raider w/intruder limbs. Can this bow be warfed? would like to make an ILF style long bow.

If you have a 25" ilf riser, would you put a straight edge from the edge of the limb pad where the limb rides to the other. Now measure the distance 90° to the straight edge to the deepest part of your grip. Please post riser ID, grip used, and if grip is low, medium or high. It would be...
