Thoughts on the new Bob Lee Shikari? Anyone going to buy one?

I’d like to but can’t justify it. The limbs specifically seem awesome
I was thinking they would probably sell more if they just made their limbs ILF as well instead of making their own version of it. Obviously people need to buy their riser then...but ILF people like to try new stuff. What do I know though. I can wait to get a nice custom riser and put some ilf limbs on it. Some great options out there now.It looks like Bob we got tired of border archery eating their lunch.
Does anyone run out and buy a HECS suit because John Dudley is getting paid to Hype them?
Sorry, That is an ugly bow. A guy can shoot an incredible Stalker stickbow ILF riser and top of the line Uukha limbs for a few hundred bucks less than that. Heck a aluminum Trad tech riser and top-of-the-line limbs would leave you $600 in your pocket over that bow.

Yeah the business model used to Lock you into using proprietary limbs from all of the different bowyers. it was a pain if you wanted to change weight or something.I was thinking they would probably sell more if they just made their limbs ILF as well instead of making their own version of it.

It sounds like a great bow, I’d like to shoot oneI really like super curves. I have a Timberghost G3SS and a Karibow Tuktu EX. Everything I have read from guys who own one or have shot one makes me feel like this is going to be an exceptional bow. I never buy fancy wood bows anymore. I prefer a heavy riser like G10 or phenolic. One of my super curves has carbon limbs and they are so torsionally stable. I think these new limbs from what everyone says are really smooth, quick and very quiet. I can see myself buying a Shikari. I believe it would make a fantastic hunting bow.
