I picked up my like new set of Morrison Cheyenne Max 1 D Limbs that I recently bought at The Archery Shop today. WOW is all I can think to say to describe these limbs. For 45#@28" limbs they hit like a ton of bricks, are very smooth, very fast, ultra quiet and are very accurate shooting with either 400 or 350 spine carbon arrows and 125 gr points.
The only question I have that I would like someone to answer for me is "What bow stringer do you use to string these limbs on your bow?" I have a stringer from October Mountain Products, but the limbs are so thick out near the tips that I'm not very comfortable using it.
Bob certainly came up with a winner when he designed these limbs! :)

Here's a link to the one I use at 3 Rivers.

Keith,
I've only put 30 shots or so through it thus far, but I already know the Cheyenne with the Max 1 limbs are the most stable and consistently accurate stickbow I've owned/shot to date.
Bill
Get the stringer that Bill suggested. Thats the one I use and love it.
I have a set on an IlF Phoenix and they are simply amazing as to how smooth and quick they are.
After a week of shooting my Cheyenne with the Max 1 limbs, I'm even more amazed at the vastly improved shooting qualities of these limbs. Wow is an understatement, IMHO.
Bill
Ohhhh Bill, you are gonna make Mrs. TJ very unhappy!
I traded for a pair in ILF. I usually don't shoot recurves...but I agree completely. They are sweet!
That is the only stringer I will use.
Best bow stringer out there is the one by selway limbsaver bowstringer .
And Max ones are awesome !!!!!

I have a set of 51# Max1 limbs for my Cheyenne and they are awesome! I've had the best results using a Black Widow stringer. Enjoy! Randy
Quandry: Cocobolo C Riser or Dymondwood B Riser. I have the Cocobolo C riser and I hope to pick up the Dymondwood B riser Saturday.
I prefer the looks of the Cocobolo C riser, but I think I'll prefer the length of the B riser. The D Max 1 limbs yields a 64" bow with the C riser and 62" with the B riser. For shooting, I think I'll prefer the B riser as that is the length of the recurves I've been shooting for the past 5 or 6 years. Below are some pics of the B riser:

I knew I had a Selway Limbsaver stringer and I found it on my workbench this morning as I was looking for something else. It worked like a champ on my bow at The Archery Shop today. I did have to put a longer string on the two end pieces for it to work on my 64" Morrson Cheyenne! :)

Below are pics of the C Riser:

I have a 28" draw, so which riser would you recommend for me to use with my D Max 1 limbs?
Bill
Bill, You could shoot a 13" if you want.
Bob
Bob,
I know I could shoot a 13", or A, riser, but I have a B and a C riser. And I actually prefer to shoot a 62" bow. In this case, the B riser and D Max 1 limbs would yield a 62" bow. Did I mention I love your Max 1 limbs? :)
Bill
The winner is the B riser. I like the way the bow shoots better with the B riser and Max 1 limbs than the C riser with the same limbs. Additionally, the grip on the B riser fits my hand better than does the grip on the C riser.
Bill
I love when a plan comes together! Congrats on getting back in the "game" and finding the answer to dialing in a great bow. :thumbsup:
Would LOVE to have a set of Max 1's for my faithful Cheyenne. Hope you have a great time with your new rig!
I'm waiting on a couple of frosts and then I'll be taking my Cheyenne hunting for deer! It is shooting great with Victory VAP V3 350 arrows with 125 gr up front.
I'm gonna have to locate my 145-150 gr field points. The new broadheads I bought are 150 gr Muzzy Fred Eichler 4-blade Phantoms.
Bill
There's not a whole lot of places that carry 145 gr field points! :( At least there's not any locally that I've been able to find.
Bill
Bill,
Check out Braveheart...he's got glue on and screw in 145's...

Thanks Doc!

Beautiful bow! Good luck this season!
