Hill Bows...3-fingers Under??
« on: April 24, 2018, 11:15:14 PM »
Ok..this might be a dumb question...but how many of you guys shoot your Hill’s 3 fingers under? I have never owned or shot one...but am looking to pick one up.

Does it make the bow behave badly? Add any more handshock or vibration to the bow? Or do they act like any other bow when shot 3 under?

I've shot Hill Style bows for at least a decade three under and find them to shoot just as good three under as split, and better that way for me. Just as quiet when my whole form is correct. They are definitely fun to try, but be careful, you may get hooked!

Shooting a hill 3 under is perfectly fine.   It;s usually just a 1/8" higher nock point to adjust.

I shot at a buck once and the arrow went about 3 fingers under....the second arrow was in the boiler room though!

Sorry, couldn't resist. 

Seriously, get one and try it.   :archer: :coffee:
