Gotta love the bow that stands by you.  How do you like the 64" length? do you feel anything different from shooting the longer lengths?

Brian...I have had Hill bows in 66 and 68 lengths as well and I like the 64 best...I only draw 26  and I hunt in tree stands some so it works good!

BOHO.... I live near Hattiesburg, this pic is in Bentonia in Yazoo Couty on some family land...

I also hunt with Wesley special here in central Mississippi. Mine is 68 inches 53# @ 30. I have tried several other longbows through the years but never really like the way they shot. The Howard Hill is by far my favorite. The length has never been an issue yet. I would like to try a mild r/d like a Abbott or Mohawk just don't no anybody around here that has one to try.

Gotta love them Hills. I like it when my bow gets "aged" from use. It fits my wore out old self.

Mississippi bow hunter,
I shoot two Northern Mist Sheltons and a HHA Tembo all 66" long (n-to-n). I also have a 54# ,62" Mowhawk. I shoot them all the same way.
The Mohawk is fastest.
I enjoy all four!!
