question for ACS shooters....

[cnorth]

Are the 3 piece quiet and vibration free? Is the shelf cut past center..

[wingnut]

Our ACS ILF bows are very quiet and our shelves are cut 3/16 past center.  

We are also offering a bolt-down ACS longbow after the first of the year on our new Orion riser.  It is also cut 3/16 past.

The A&H ACSs are cut 3/16 past center.  They're very quiet.  Don't know what you mean by vibration free.  All bow limbs vibrate at the end of the shot.  My ACSs transmit less hand shock than any other bow I've owned, and I've owned a lot of them.

What Orion said. No better bow out there that I know of.

I own one and it has very little to none for hand shock. I have arthritis in my hands and all my joints and my ACS CX feels very good in the hand after the shot. If you get a chance to try one you won't be disappointed.

I had one and loved it. Very quiet, quick, and no shock.  All bows have a little feel in the hand on the shot, but the ACS is about as good as it gets with no real thrust or limb wobble sensation.  The only bow to shoot as soft in the hand and as quiet for me has been the Hill Country Wildcat.

I find that my A&H ACS-CX 3-piece take-down longbow is both a very fast high performance bow, and at the same time it treats the owner to wonderful "manners" as well.  It is repeatedly accurate, quiet, with no hand shock, and can be made virtually vibration free.  If you mount a 6 or 8 strand SBD string with their installed acrylic string silencers and shoot an arrow that weighs over 9 gpp, the bow is almost silent with no residual buzz at all.  It is a joy to shoot.

Thanks all for the replies...

I think that the ACS closed the performance gap between the longbow and the recurve.  My ASC-CX bows shoot pound-for-pound, grain-per-pound with my Widow PMA.  I swap arrows between bows.  What has been said above by others already stands.  They are a great high performance bow.  High engineering and manufacturing in a primitive weapon.  That said, there are many bows.  I shoot my ACS bows almost as much as my Hills -- almost.

Can only elaborate on the ACS w/RC riser.

***Great!***

I have two Dryad Risers with ACS limbs. They are great. No hand shock. Fast as all get out.

Quiet,fast,no hand shock,shoots where you look.  The guys at A&H are great to deal with....DB
