Good limbs and good company Sam but in reality, the limbs are no better or worse than any of the top draw options. They suit some people and not others. My experience has been all good though so far. Very smooth to draw, stiff but not too stiff to be forgiving and seem very consistent. They shoot good groups and tune quite easily, but again, others may have different findings. They look good on a gunmetal Zenit too

"LOL" I thought that was over the top enough for most to know it was a joke. You musta missed the "smiley". I was jerkin' Sam's chain about all of the Border bashing of late. "Sick of hearing about Border", "Border Poll" Close the border et al....L M A O When I noticed his thread "Tell me about your Dryad" below "Tell me about your Border...." I couldn't resist.
I'm sure I'd be completely happy with either bow, and have to smile at how some folks get bent out of shape comparing limbs and such. I can't shoot well enough to tell the difference on my target paper.

LOL, Mike is my best friend. I sure don't want to bring any rash of trouble down on him cause I like his limbs. .
Mike finally got tired of hearing me whine for an ilf longbow limb. He and Jason finally went to work and produced my favorite hunting limb ever. The glass/bamboo epic long bow limb. On the right riser it is by far the most limb for your $$$ to put meat in the freezer.
Then a long came the ACS series. If you shoot longbow limbs on an ilf riser, you need to try these. Extraordinary!

I have had Mikes products before and they are top notch.....my last longbow was awesome and I couldn't pry it out of Rob Ingrams hands so I just gave it to him.....yup a 1000+ dollar bow..but you can't replace the look on his face with money.
He is so over the top happy with that bow (so was I too btw) but I just had to let him have it.
Service is also one of the best I have seen.....Mike has helped me out a few times through some shady deals that I got caught up in too.
Thanks Mike..Jer

I picked up a set of ACS 4G limbs about a year ago on the trading blanket here. They immediately impressed me and became my go to hunting limb. I tolled around with getting a set of the ACS RC limbs, and shied away from them as they were big hooks.... and we all know how much I love them (LOL). However, saw a deal on a set used, and decided it was worth trying, I shot them and absolutely loved them. Easy to tune, and loved the feel and they didn't sound like a 12 gauge going off. Then I ordered the ACS CG limbs after hearing everyone say how much better they were than the 4g's that I loved. WOW... they were right. Best ILF LB limb I have ever shot. FAST, quiet and forgiving, unbelievable performance that is only outdone by the SUPERIOR customer service that Dryad has. I have recently picked up a Dryad Epic riser used, funny how just as I was going to call Mike to order one, this one popped on the trading blanket. Fit and finish are very good, just haven't had the opportunity to shoot with it yet. I would but I have a house full of south Texans here visiting for a couple of weeks. Gotta love in-laws.

I have a set of the ACS longbow limbs. Without a doubt, these are the finest limbs that I have ever owned. I've tried just about every limb out there, except the most expensive top of the line limbs, but I don't see how they could be better. I bought these limbs from Mike just for 3D shooting. They are only 40 pounds, and about 38 at my draw length. I paired them with a 15" slim wood riser from Bob Morrison. The string that Mike supplied was a 12 strand Flemish twist. That bow is absolutely amazing. It is dead quiet, and rock solid at the shot. It's fast too, even with 11/32 wood arrows and 125 grain tips. When I shoot my lightweight carbons out of it, I have to be careful not to shoot over the target.
To be honest, I was very skeptical about all the hype associated with these limbs, and figured that some of the accolades were coming from Mike's buddies. Boy was I wrong! If I ever decide to buy more, they will be Dryads. And no, I'm not on his payroll either! LOL!

Most likely be down there for a few weeks over the Christmas holidays if the wife isn't deployed somewhere. I would love to meet up with all you guys from Texas and do some hunting.
