That's the plan. I dont feel the pressure to be good at it. Its a wonderful feeling knowing that I'm just shooting for fun. Plus now I have to learn a whole different tuning method, tune arrow, not bow.
You can still tune a trad bow. Moving strike plate, nock point, tiller, brace height, and on an ilf rig an adjustable rest. These are all ways to manipulate the tune of the bow to the arrow.
I heard that ILF bows are loud due to the design of limbs pockets. Any experiences? I would like to hunt with the bow someday.
I'm currently shooting an ilf longbow and it is as quiet or more quiet than most recurves I've shot and my one-piece longbow that I hunt with.
You would be wise to find somebody near to where you live that is experienced with single string bows. If you go ILF you can get a Samick Discover for around $350-400 for a complete bow. I would recommend ILF if you are planning to string walk too.
At your height and draw length, medium limbs will give you the best of performance and smoothness when matched with a 17" or 19" riser.
