ACS ILF limbs are here!!! Dryad bows

wingnut · January 13, 2011, 07:28:00 AM

Ok lets try and answer some of the questions.

When can I order? We should be ready to take orders in the next day or so. Gotta get some webpage work done and get a spreadsheet made for Connie of options.

What lengths? They will be offered in Medium, Long and XL at this time.

What price? The base price on the limbs will be $450 with the same options as our others. We are not offering the clear glass or veneers quite yet. Still have some work too do there.

Exclusive? Although this is not an exclusive license we will be the only ones offering ILF ACS limbs in the forseeable future.

Thank you both.

John.... an ACS recurve??

Now that would be a game changer for sure. Difficult to imagine. It'll be interesting to see how that pans out...

Well even though we need some stuff on the website, let's go ahead and open up for orders on the limbs.

Give me a call at 817-594-5578.

Thanks,

Mike

Congratulations on what sounds like a great partnership! That being said, I love the bamboo recurve limbs I bought from you–they're smooth and quiet on my Epic riser and look great, too. It's a real nice shooting bow.

This sounds like a great partnership indeed!!

Mike I assume the ACS limbs will be the same configuration with carbon on the back. Please correct my if I am wrong. Will you also have the option of Tonkin bamboo upgrade?

The medium limbs should make a 56" bow on the Morrison mini-13 riser. Has there been any testing of these limbs yet?

Thank you,

James

This sounds like a very good move for all archers. Congrats.

So, Mike...can a fella just buy ONE limb???

I don't have ILF risers and I'm thinking at my age if I become too irresistable to the opposite sex, it might just cause premature death, ... so if I might be able to just buy ONE limb... (I'd prefer "bottom" limb), it might just be all an ole goat can handle!

I tell you what... I've been tempted by the ILF concept as arthritis robs more shoulder function, and marrying up to these ACS limbs is quite a neat concept!

Kudos and best to both good companies!

The current limb is quad glass with AW and X weave core with upgrades too bamboo.

So will there be some test bows at the expo? And will they be at the ACS booth or is Dryad Bows going to be there?

John Havard · January 13, 2011, 04:25:00 PM

We'll all be sitting together at the A&H booth.

wingnut · January 13, 2011, 04:56:00 PM

Yep we hope to have around 7-8 sets of limbs to shoot at the expo. They could be headed home with folks too if they match the needs.

Gotta pay for the trip somehow. LOL

The ACS recurve limb has been whispered about for years. Sort of taking on the mythical porportions of a Unicorn. IF the ACS limb design transfers across to the recurve limb like it did the longbow limb, in terms of limb efficiency, the impact for the recurve hunter could be enormous. Very exciting news!

wingnut · January 14, 2011, 01:10:00 PM

Yep we are starting work very soon on the curve limb. Don't know for sure how long it will take to get it working and ready for market. Keep your eyes open.

Mike

xtrema312 · January 14, 2011, 08:23:00 PM

Are there going to be any Dryad limbs also? I have been wanting to try some with the ILF riser.

wingnut · January 15, 2011, 07:35:00 AM

I might throw in a few pair of Epic limbs for comparison if I have room. This is not our booth but rather A&H's and they have been kind enough to invite us to join them so I don't want to take up all the space.

Yeah. I asked OL about this several years ago. I am also glad to hear the news.
