I have wanted a Hill bow for a while... long before the giant thread got started.  And I was all ready to order one when that thread popped up.  Now I am so overwhelmed with choices that I can't decide what I want.  So far the only decisions I have made are that I want a 68-70" bow around 65#@28".  Materials, grip style and string follow, etc are all still big question marks for me.

A case when too much information can be daunting I suppose.

Mitch,
Don't be overwhelmed...that thread is full of good info and, at the same time,  a lot of personal preference.  Sounds like you are on track with the two major components - draw weight and length.

The rest is your preference.  Performance across all of the materials (models) is not a key factor - many guys will tell you that they cannot tell one from the other.  You cannot make a mistake there.

IMO, If there is any problem you may encounter it'll probably be in developing an appetite for another "flavor" -pick one that flips your switch...
