What's this all about then ...?


What does the collective wisdom think this is all about then? Inno riser too light for its own good, not balanced properly, or what?

It's an interesting variation on adding weight to a riser. Similar effect to a backweight, but with the weight in the line of the riser.

The thing about a light riser is you can put extra weight where you want it. Which it appears this guy has done.

This Guy?!?!

It would appear that they cut holes in bows to make them lighter then allow archers to add the weight that would be there if they hadn't have removed the weight in the first place. You will aslo notice that the weights are directly underneath the pressure button and as such should help eliviate torque from around the turning motion of the bow around the pressure button/arrowrest... get that right and you are half way there.

There is a difference between a damped mass and the solid mass that a heavier riser is.

Just remembered where I have seen some thing like that before. In the early seventies Marksman produced a recurve with internal encapsulated mercury filled dampers at the base of the limbs in a wooden riser bow.

I'll give it a try.
