Sweet looking get-up right there! How's the balance of the bow with the limbs outweighing the riser?

Awesome!
Is it September yet?!

Levi, the balance is other-worldly good.  Holding and carrying it places the balance right in the throat of the grip where it belongs.  It's an awfully sweet-feeling bow, both to hold and to shoot.  The ACS generally feels different to most folks who've shot a bunch of bows.  This one will take that different feeling a notch or two farther.  I can honestly say I've never shot any bow ever that feels like it, and I mean that in a good way!

John good luck with this new design. I am sure it will be quite a performer. If it performs as well as you and your staff stand behind your bows it can't loose. Your customer service can't be beat. You went way above and beyond for me on one of your bows. I know I won't forget it.

Good luck and thanks again.

John is there going to be a chance in the future of using this type of riser in your one piece bows?

Thanks

Sweet. Should do very well with light riser lovers. If it deadens the shot more than the original acs you won't know you loosed the arrow. I bet you guys never sleep at night, just lay in bed and brainstorm great ideas. Great job from a great folks.

You know, I thought when I found this site that it would help in my decision making process for a new bow. I'm like a pinball now, what with everybody showing off their new bows from whatever maker (each one more beautiful than the last)and now this. I've been to the website quite a bit and read all of John's posts. Sounds like you guys really have things figured out.
 Keep it up and I may never be able to decide!!

Hey Rod,
One of these days I hope to sit down with you and do a little more brainstorming.  I think you'd like the combination offered by the ACX and options it presents for the future.

John,

Is the new riser offered in a low wrist version or what options are available?

Thanks,

Doug

Doug, the version we decided to come out with is the lowest-wrist model we build.  It has a nice locator area in the throat of the grip but the grip is pretty "low".

I am an A&H fan, this riser is very interesting.
Any plans for high wrist style?
I love the grip on my Apogee.

John, eventually we'll offer this ACX version in all of our risers depending on the reception this one receives.  Each version requires a lot of tooling, molds, time, and expense.  So moving on to the next model will be a function of how this is received by our customers.  As I mentioned earlier I can't wait until we start building this in the 16" RC version because that's my personal favorite.
