Looks like you have plenty of info, but thought a little more would'nt hurt.  I shoot a Black Widow PSA recurve, 57lb@26",58" long. It chrono'ed 170 fps w/ a 477g arrow.  Last summer I bought a new A&H ACS longbow, 62", 57lb@26".  I bare shafted the same arrows I shoot out of my widow and they flew great.  When I chrono'ed the ACS bow, it only did 177 fps.  The ACS longbow is a very nice bow to shoot, however I don't think it performs nearly as well w/ a short draw length.  Hope I didn't bore ya too much, let me know if you have any questions.  Shane

Not meaning to hi-jack but,,,

SD,,, WOW, I thought there'd be a little more difference than that. From the numbers posted on several other ACS threads your speed was below the averages.
Nana ka maka;
ho`olohe ka pepeiao;
pa`a ka waha.

Observe with the eyes;
listen with the ears;
shut the mouth.

I thought so too, especially for a $1200 bow and all the hype.  Which is why it went on **** two weeks after I bought it. I'll stay w/ my Widow.

The UBM gathering at Jeff city on Feb 1-3 is not far from KC and there will be a few bowyers and lots of trad archers there. I recommend it. I go and its a six hour drive for me.
