I went to Rocky Mountain Specialty Gear today to try out some heavy arrows for a friend.

It was a mistake. I walked out with an ACS CX, 52#@28", 64" long, 7-1/8 Brace height.

I had to do it, since I had a dozen bare shafts that  I could tune to fit it. Logical, right?  

The shafts are Axis ST 300s. With a 2.5" 2016 footer, bare shafts cut to 30.5", I get a back of broadhead length of 30.25".  With the Dauntless 265 grain heads, 100 grain threerivers brass inserts and a 1/2" setscrew to complete the adapter they weigh in at 750 grains exactly.

The arrows fly like lasers with 3 2-1/8 shield cut fletches.  

Now all I have to do is learn to shoot it.

Love this addiction!!!!

Makes perfect sense to me. I just bough back a recurve that I had traded off. My wife says "how many bows can you shoot at one time?" Told her I wasn't actually sure, but when I reached my limit, I'd let her know!!! Enjoy the new bow. Mike

Eminently practical.
I envy you the uncluttered clarity of your mind.

You gotta do what you gotta do     ....makes sense to me.    

That's awesome don, it was good to see you at RMSG today, have fun with the new bow, it's a good one.

I'm glad you could be there for your friend,uncluttered clarity and all!

I got out of RMSG today for less than $50; I think that is a new record for me! They sure have lots of nice bows, though.

Sounds like a sensible purchase to me.

I know how you feel, I have it bad as well. And the worse thing is, I am not sure there is a cure.

That'll teach ya to go shop for your friends  

Thank you all for your support.

It crossed my mind that the world might not agree - glad to see I was mistaken!

"The world" would NOT... but you are in good company, here!    

What no broadheads for the arrows ?! You need to go back and finnish shopping.

One of the greatest crimes against humanity is a set of arrows with no bow to launch them from.  Way to work yourself out of a jam.    

Money is specificaly made for buying bows and arrows.

God bless you, Steve

I wish I could think of something witty to say here, but I can't.

Learning to shoot this bow is a humbling experience!
