I'll keep that in mind SC, but I don't see it happening. I feel I have the best of both bow types (for me) right now & plan on sticking w/em both from here on out.

I have em both shooting so close together that I can easily swap between the two w/out any adjustments whatsoever. Never had that before & loving it! 'Thumper' & 'Hoochie Momma' have both found permanent homes.

You got an ACS or old style ?

I shot some more this afternoon. Did pretty well but honestly, I just love my 3 piece TD longbows and am going to probably sell this SAII and ..... gasp, might just order a Morrison ACS

I was in a pretty bad car wreck on Tuesday
I hope you're feeling better stealthy!

What's the difference between the regular ACS and the ACS CX?

Bob, the CX is one of OL's latest tweeks on his ACS limb. The CX limbs are carbon lams over an actionboo core, with no glass. As far as I'm concerned the increase in efficiency & energy storage aren't the main benefits of the CX limb. The shooting characteristics that ppl love about the ACS are enhanced by this new advancement & I consider that the biggest plus. I've never shot any other bow like it.

I did !!

VERY happy camper right now. I sold the SAII with both sets of limbs to a guy as giddy to get it as I am to get the Adcock.

Bocote (I luv that stuff) riser, cocobolo strip, double carbon limbs, 64" (same as my current Adcock) brown glass instead of black (I've often wanted a combo like that) and 58# .... I bet that puppy will flat shoot a 525 grain carbon !!

I'll post pics when I get it, sometime next week.

I hear ya SC, I'm a fool over bocote too. That's why I had my last BW made of the stuff. Awesome bow. Anyhow, be waiting to see pics of your latest sweetheart, I'll bet it shoots like a dream...
