Dryad Epic 13 with Legend ACS-CG In my previous entry, I had taken a closer look at a ILF longbow with a metal riser. In my opinion, metal risers are superb for their durability and no-nonsense approach to holding together a pair of limbs. While I do like a metal riser, I also like wood risers for their wonderful aesthetics and warm feel. One can really appreciate a wooden riser if out hunting on a cold autumn morning. While the grip on a metal riser helps insulate the hands, it is noticeably colder than wood. Additionally, wood has natural dampening characteristics and is usually lighter than metal for a given riser length. I will be taking a more in-depth look at Dryad's Epic 13 ILF riser paired with a set of extra-long Legend ACS-CG longbow limbs in this entry. The complete longbow with limb dampers and string silencers Dryad currently offers wooden ILF risers in three different lengths: 13", 15", and 17". The riser I am reviewing here...
