Has anyone shot the new short A&H CX limbs ? I think there are a few out there but I haven't heard any reports on how they perform .

i've got some on order...don't know yet when i will receive them.  i could be wrong & if John reads this he can clarify, the 58 inch don't perform as efficiently as the 64 inch but still perform quite well.  i've got a 14 & 16 inch riser & i'm actually going to use them on the 16 inch riser to make 60 inch limbs.
i can't wait to see how they work...

Peckerwood..........I ordered a set a couple of months ago and then decided a couple of weeks ago to get the 62" length instead and changed my order.
My hunting is only spot and stalk, so the shorter limb is of no advantage to me; but for tree stands, blinds and anyone wanting a shorter limb they would be great.
I know this is a useless response; but you weren't getting any better ones either!  :bigsmyl:

I have a set on order to make a 60" bow with my 16" riser. The delivery date was moved back so I am still waiting for them.

Peckerwood, the new short limbs store a bit less energy than the 64"-66" limbs, but they have just a slightly higher dynamic efficiency.  Rastaman is right - the tradeoff for 8"-10" shorter bow is a few feet per second.  As I have said before, most folks wouldn't notice but we want everyone to understand that fact since performance is our first, last, and middle name.  

David, I talked with the shop today and they have several sets of shorter limbs in the finish stage right now.  Hopefully yours won't be much farther out.
