Bow Consulting!

Howard Hill Archery (  http://www.howardhillarchery.com  ) is the place to start. They have a good selection of bows in stock, or, if you prefer, can build you a bow quickly.

It will be important to get a bow that is correct for your draw length. A good rule is to use a 66" bow for a 26" draw, a 68" bow for a 28" draw, and a 70" bow for a 30" draw. You will probably draw a Hill style bow with a straight or dished grip an inch or two shorter than you do your Black Widow.

Let us know if we can be of help to you.

I'm not sure what you are asking.  Can you rephrase the question? Or ask it in German?

Welcome brother. There is a Hill bow maker over your way also I do believe. I can not remember the name. I think Peter O'strecler (unsure ) has one and commented on it.

Also you bet you know more English than I know Austrian. Good job brother and welcome

Excellent! Be sure to post some pictures of the bow, when you receive it.
