All good, but I LOVE Tall Tines. Both shoot great, so its up to you. You will kill tons of game with either, which do you prefer yourself looking at them?

I have both with the Hill Country being the Wildcat with longbow limbs the TT being a recurve. I know two totally different bows! Workmanship on both is great both are quiet and the speed seems good. So I really am not much help, would not hurt to go shoot the Hill Country if they are in driving distance. You would not be making a bad choice with either one.

I can't give an opinion on the Hill Country as I haven't shot one. That said, I've owned lots of bows over the years and shot almost everyones bow that comes through my camp. I currently own 2 Tall Tines and can honestly say I've never shot a nicer shooting recurve.

Ive owned a wildcat and my buddy has a TT(for sale on here). The wildcat was nice, and i prefered the grip better then the TT, but neither were the "one" for me.  Both were good quality and really well made!

As stated above, both are very nice bows but not for everyone. I am thinking of selling my TT, although it is a great shooting bow it is not my go to bow. I haven't had the Hill Country long enough to decide although I am really liking it seems to shoot better every time I take it out. Do yourself a favor go and check out the Hill Country bows, would be worth the trip even if you decide they are not for you. At least you would know.

two really different bow grips.  I have shot both and between the two i prefer the grip on the Hill Country.  I cannot say one bad thing about the TT, but for me the grip did not work.  The hill country grip is excellent and is very similar to my habu's which so far has the best grip i have found.  The habu is just impossible to get and the HC is half the price.

BTW my new Bobcat should be here soon.....hopefully!!

I have a custom grip on my TT curve that mirrors the grip I saw on another members TT (thanks George) that I liked alot that differs from the standard grip.Grips are very personal.This grip is amazing for me and the bow is a superb shooter.Very accurate and stable.64 inch bow.
I have never shot a Hill country so cant compare the 2 bows.
