2 pc ACS CX - Feedback!!!
« on: December 09, 2011, 03:13:00 PM »
OK, I have been looking closely at this bow.  I know they are new but a few of you must have one already.  Any feedback would be appreciated.  I know speed is not everything but with only a 26" draw and shooting bows at about 50# I am looking for all the performance I can get.  Give me your thoughts.
Thanks
ALDO

Oops!  I didn't see your reference to two piece.  No experience with that one.   :dunno:

Aldo, I don't own one but I am just about the same specs as you .... I draw 25.5" & like around 50 pounds myself. I'm heading to the K-Zoo expo at the end of january and i'm hoping the A&H guys bring a 56'" 1 piece or 2 piece with their new carbon fiber takedown system. From everything I have read, guys like us with short draw lengths make up some speed and power with the ACS limb design.

I just bought a set of the Dryad/ACS ILF Legend limbs from Dryad on black friday but haven't been able to shoot them yet as I am awaiting a string.

I shot a early prototype bow from ACS (I live apx. 1 mile from their shop). If I remmeber correctly it was 64" (might have been 62"), high 40lb range. Larry set it up with a 750gr. arrow. The bow shot very nice, and shot the heavy arrow with authority!

I am on their web site right now filling out an order form for this new 2 piece, looks awesome!!! I think I will drive over and pay them a visit and see if I can get a hold of one to help decide what length.

Nobody has any first hand experience with these yet?

I dont have any experience with the 2 piece but do with the performance of the ACS CX and you will be impressed with that.

Aldo,

Talked with Larry at the K-Zoo expo and he told me they had only produced a handful of the 2 pieces so far and that they were on 60"+ bows. So I don't think there are many of them out there yet. He didn't have any 2 pieces at the show but from what I understand it is the same basic design as Black Widow, Big Jim, Cari-Bow and others use.

I went to the show with the intention of trying and possibly buying a 56". All Larry had were two 1piece bows both of which were 60". I liked the 60" bows so much I ordered one when I got home with the woods I liked and my draw weight. I didn't end up going with the 2 piece option though.
