I wasn't sure what to expect from this 17-inch ILF traditional recurve, especially since it's the shortest ILF riser I've ever shot.
In this review, I unbox, tune, and shoot the Adam Archery traditional ILF riser and limb combination to see how it performs in real-world shooting. This is one of the very few bows I've ever shot that didn't hit my bow arm.
The bow wasn't perfect, and I cover the things I think could be improved as well. While shooting off the shelf, I eventually had to stop because my fletching was contacting my hand, limiting the amount of shooting I could do from the fletching cutting my hand.
