Kids Take Down Recurve 15lb with quiver arrows glove and guard.
Would like to trade for old Aussie made timber fishing lures.

Wanted Old Aussie Made Timber Fishing Lures, Made before 2000. Cash paid or can trade for Trad Equipment. Photos are examples of the type of lures I’m chasing.

Will trade a leather back quiver for the right old Australian lures.

WTB Old Australian Fishing Lures, Do you have Australian made fishing lures that are 20 years old or more that you are not using or just want to sell? Please let me know I have started collecting old Australian Lures and need to add to the ones I already have. Send me some photos and we can discuss ...

Looks to be an unusual place to crack? Not sure if it's the timber drying out and checking in the dryer climate in Katherine or if it's stress related?

Sorry Gazza the riser is near Katherine in the Territory, l sold it to a guy a few months ago with no crack & just noticed it in the last week. He contacted me not knowing what to do so I'm trying to help him.

Hi guys does any one do riser repairs? This is a bow I sold a few months ago & has in the last few days developed a check or crack in the riser.
Any help would be appreciated by the owner.

Any other opinions?
Remember they're like backsides we've all got one.
And I think it's good to hear diverse opinions.

My thoughts, that is considering their only guidelines.

Yes David I have seen the same thing happen several times also as well as a couple of people string walking & a few gap shooters to boot.Good thing that sort of thing doesn't bother me. Sorry Grahame I didn't expect you to do any research, just thought with all the links to organisations you pos...

Kendaric you may want to look at the Centre shot on the recurve bows.

Evening Bjorn, I'm glad your daughter is enjoying her little bow. In regards to Ilf,Das Etc recurve limb attachment systems wether they be trad or not is a matter of opinion. As to what makes something trad or not I really don't think there's an easy answer to that question.The fact that they have b...

Daryl I am fully aware of the carriage bow & I have seen others using steel sleeve systems. Which is why i chose my words carefully. Both systems I mentioned are modern improvements on older systems as are the improvements of the other limb attachment methods I mentioned, the difference is some ...

Grahame that's still not answering the question.
That aside I guess it's the same thing that allows a bow bolt or a carbon fibre sleeve system on a two piece long bow.
I'm pretty sure both systems weren't around pre compound, if that really is the cut off date for being traditional.

Thanks Grahame, but that doesn't answer the question? I chose the Ilf limb attachment as an example only. There are others such as Das, Hoyt, Predator & possibly others I don't know about. As to what makes something Traditional in an archery sense, well that seems to be a matter of opinion. Some...

Thanks Daryl, I was thinking along similar lines but I wanted the input from other people who know a lot more about these types of bows than I do.

What is the main problem people have with the Deflex Reflex Longbow / Semi Recurve / Hybrid ? Is it the terminology used to describe it or is it that people shoot it in the Longbow category at Trad Shoots? What is the main problem people have with the ILF limb attachment bows ? Is it the fact that t...

Sorry, Grahame I was just surprised to see that considering the fuss a lot of people make about any type of aiming.

Grahame I noticed those rules also allowed for gap shooting & strong walking would this be OK as well?

Grahame does that mean Cubs & Juniors all compete with adults & shoot off the same peg?
I know some people like to win at all costs but beating 6 year olds that's crazy!

Darryl what's the problem with non fibreglass bows?

This from the Longbow description. The longbow can be of takedown construction but two piece only. Three piece construction is not permitted. Three piece construction, ILF etc., will be considered as hybrid bows and should be placed in that division accordingly. This from the recurve description, Th...

Plunger rest I don't agree with but I like that Ilf three piece take down bows are treated the same as any other three piece take down bow.

Don't feel to bad Kendaric I didn't know that document existed either, it is interesting to read though.
Seems bows with ILF take down limbs are now ok, plunger rest on recurve but not hybrid seems strange. Actually I'm surprised they are ok on any of them.
