Wanted to give a quick shout out to Hill country bows. I was at a archery shop in Charm (mostly compound and crossbow oriented) I noticed a really sharp looking recurve hanging on one of the hooks. It turned out to be a Hill country take down. I was impressed with the wood selection and the fine craftsmanship. Drew it back and was surprised at how smooth it was. Didn't get to shoot it but I am sure it would have been a performer. If you are in the market for a new recurve give Roman at Hill country a try you won't be disappointed.
