Title: Today I hit a new low. (half a bow)
Post by: Predator Man on February 12, 2010, 12:14:00 PM
Today I purchased half a bow.  Yes half a bow.  I purchased a riser off the classifides for a bow I have no limbs for. I also do not have any plans to purchase limbs in the near future as I just purchased a new bow and im broke.  What am I going to do with half a bow?  :knothead:

Nice!!! It'll be worth waiting for. Between the Predators and the ACS bows I can assume you like speed. Are acs's your new favorite??

There equal..  I will have to break out the chrony this spring to make the final decision on the fastest but yes in order of importance for me is speed, accuracy, silence. Silence comes last because I can make anything quiet even if its not quiet out of the box.  They both have their place.  They are both super quiet, dead in the hand and super fast. They are 2 different animals for sure. Its like apples to oranges trying to choose between a 66" longbow and a 60" recurve. The lightness of the acs will be nice for hill country hunts.

HA HA

What kind of FPS can I expect my riser to propel those at?  Speed of smell?   Maybe I can duck tape a couple tree branches to the top and bottom and tie some bailing twine to them for a string till I can afford some limbs.
