I don't even care about the review, I am just glad to see you back! I was keeping an eye on your Facebook and was getting concerned with no activity. You take it easy and take time to heal properly. I always enjoy your content, so I ain't going anywhere.
I'm glad to see your health improving and enjoy your reviews. However, I have no problem using the limb bolts to fine tune the bow, which is the recommended method. It also helps to adjust tiller. For me, the grip is not the key point in selecting my bow; I use an after-market Jager 3 grip, which I really like.
Looks like W&W finally made a decent default grip. Personally I don't like plastic grips and much prefer wood grips. Changed my ATF-X grip to a R-Core wood grip, which is more Hoyt like and scores increased immediately.
I never care about the grip. I just put a grip that I like on the riser I choose. The grip is really the only thing that doesn’t matter one single bit, since it is the only easily replaceable part. Shot feel is by far more important imo.
Ive got a Kaya K7... Love the grip. Love the riser. The paintwork is awful... In many places the paint is not keyed to the carbon. Does it matter to me... No not really. I might respray the riser eventually. Ive owned it 8 years!
"And what they have is a little plate like"... what Hoyt had already back in 1985. Plus I bet that grip is interchangeable with Hoyt ones. Also, who still strings their bow round their leg like it's 1985?
@@HywelOwen surprisingly close to 50/50 longbows to other flavors. According to my observation stringers are mostly used by those who don't have either enough strength or height for their bow
@@almkuzmin Push-pull is a little less likely to damage the bow (limbs are more likely to become twisted) than the wrap around the leg method. I know that many of the top shooters use push-pull, but doing so in the rain or when you don't really know what you're doing is a recipe for your face (or eye) having a meeting with a fast moving limb. Not worth it. I use an Avalon strap-type stringer, which make adding/subtracting string twists to get the correct brace height pretty easy. Stringing Uukha limbs (very tiny limb tips) is a real adventure without a stringer. As an instructor, I want to set a good example, which is another reason to use a stringer. Also, if you damage your limbs or riser by stringing it wrong, you may void your warrantee.
@@alanrudolph8880 I string Uukhas for a weaker clubmate nearly three times a week. I agree it's a bit tricky to do. As for the stringer - there's always a chance to meet such an idiot who can break limbs even with a stringer (:
Don’t adjust your limb bolts of your ilf system that you already have and what it is intended for. Buy new limbs, says the archery shop owner😂 don’t change gears, just buy a car got every gear you need😂

Ide like to see a comparison between the 2023 exceed and this riser
Nice looking riser
Nice video
Steven you don't get grips from R-Core? I would find that very surprising.
Hello,
i want to buy me the ATF-DX riser but before i buy it i want some measurements of the Grip.
Can you give me some measurements please?
Can someone tell me the width of this riser as Im waiting for mine to arrive and want to buy a beiter plunger but dont know witch size to get.
Hey Steve could you do a verdict vs Bowtech Reckoning G2 36
$5 allum.. and 1200.. labor.. lol.. no way !!!! thyen it can break easily? chit! better be gold plated!

You won't beleive but lots of people still do (: I'd say bow stringers are relatively rarely met
@@almkuzmin Do you hang around a lot of longbows?
