I just purchased a bow that was made by Bob Morrison using OL Adcocks ACS limb design. I never even knew there was such a thing.. Its 58" 57 @ 28" - I swear its one of the best bows I have ever shot. Does anyone have any information on these bows? I don't think there were very many of them made.
For a short time, Bob and OL had a partnership that allowed Bob to make ACS limbs. I think the idea was to help cut down on the wait time it took to get an ACS bow from OL.
I have one that Bob made for himself. It is Macassar ebony and 51# @ 26". It has "A&H ACS Custom Built by: Morrison Archery" on it.
I bought it at Baltimore one spring, and gave it back to Bob that July at ATAR so that he could put canebrake skins on it. Awesome bow!

Killy, mine has the same markings except mine is 57 @ 28. Man it smokes an arrow. I think I may have Bob build me an ILF with the exact same grip... with the foam limbs....just as a back up. :D

Sounds like the perfect bow. Bet no one wants to sell one.
Did you see add listed on this site. Not sure if it is a Morrison but it is a 58 incher. Maybe you can trade that bow bolt shrew?
Well I can varify that slayer1 was shooting it well. He was shooting it here last week in the shop and was lucky not to robin hood some of his arrows.
Killy, that's a nice looking bow. Where did you find that beautiful tree? Nice character.
Slayer1 I wish i hadnt read how sweet that bow is. I almost bought that bow. Just a little heavy for me. Enjoy it brother! :banghead:
Killdeer,
That is a wonderful picture of you. =0)
