I'd like to hear about the differences in the two ACS longbow limbs that Dryad is offering. I know the obvious material differences, but what about the speed, noise, stability, durability, etc... I'm thinking about jumping into the world of ILF with a set of these, and a metal riser (not sure which one yet). Thanks for any info...Mike
Mike,
The 4G and CG limbs are as you said the same but with different materials. As a result the CG (carbon/glass) limb is 6-7 fps faster then the all glass limb. This amount to about adding 1 1/2 inch of draw length in performance.

Thanks Mike, any difference in noise levels between the two? What length is recommended on say a 17" riser with a draw right around 30"?
While you're answering questions Mike :) I'd like to know how the different length risers effect the weight of a bow?
It's mentioned on your website something about +8 pounds (can't remember exactly) for certain risers. For the slower people like me :D could you please explain this further?
Cheers
Chris
We haven't noticed any difference in noise between the two limbs. Both are quiet.
I have a 30 1/2 inch draw and shoot longs on my 17" riser. John shoots the same setup on a Dalaa 17". So I would recommend longs.
We try and rate our limbs and risers so that people in the ILF world can calculate the wieght gain or loss.
Our limbs are rated on a standard 19" riser and our risers create a 3-4 pound gain on our limbs.
If you are using limbs rated on a 25" riser they gain 8 pounds on ours.
Mike
Mike, thanks for the info.
Thanks Mike!
