as a F166 owner, im extremely happy with how the bow looks and shoots. honestly its unbeatable for its affordable price.

Is it still good till now?

Don't forget with an ILF riser (Junxing) you can adjust tiller and limb alignment not just draw weight. You can't do that with the sage.

Owner of far expensive bows
The junxing is unbeatable for the price
I only purchased the risers ( 2 of them for 200 euros)
And i put good limbs on it ( old but good border talisman limbs)
The result is a very high level rig, unauthorized for WA instinctive class but OK in France for « arc chasse » ( bow hunter) class

Question about the draw weight on the F166. I read articles online stating that limb weights are usually measured on a 25" riser, and to add an additional 1 lb per inch for risers shorter than 25". Because the F166 has a 21" riser, does the 35lb combo set really measure at 35lbs or is it closer to 39lbs? Also what is the range of lb adjustment available from adjusting tiller? Thanks!

[@monwanou1]

You can ad 1 lbs for each inch shorter
And finally you can adjust about 10 percent
So on a 21 inches riser you will have 39lbs draw weight with your 35 limbs, adjustable between 37 and 41 limbs

Good review, thank you.

What's your draw length?

Because metals handle vibration better than wood

Guy is getting on about the sanding of the bow ? As along as you can put food on the table

[@alexmcdonald3493]

I thought all llf risers were set up with the holes on the risers all being universal, your comments on using a sight seem strange

Samick sage is under 100 euros where i live...
