Ric,

"Somewhere between forty and falling apart; got a bum knee, a bad back and a teenager's heart."
  And potentially the wisdon to know when to say when.  (As all of us 50 and over should have).

I like your signature and love the looks of your new bow.  

Good luck and great shooting.  Let us know how she pulls.

That's a beauty! I really like the looks of the Chechen riser. That's one of the woods you don't see very often on a Hill. Love it man, congrats and enjoy!

Many of you know that "Ric O'Shay" is my bud. He is the first to see my new bows and I'm the first to see his. What you might not know is that (Ric),Danny to me, is the shooter in this group of two. I go to 3-D shoots with him to carry his gear, so he won't hurt himself. I carry the gear, he carries the trophies and belt buckles that he wins. Well, things just got worse. He has had this new, beautiful Hill "Wesley Special" less than 24 hours and is shooting 5 arrow groups at 20 plus yards with all arrows touching. I know, cause I was there. He removes all the arrows, with one hand, at the same time. That is just not right. You know how bad that is for my ego. About the time I think I'm gaining on him, he goes and buys another tack driver. Guess I'll just have to practice more and whine less. Until then, anyone got a wheel barrow? I'm afraid he is going to ask me to start carrying his winnings, as well as his gear.

I feel for ya buddy!

"He removes all the arrows, with one hand, at the same time" - Now that just aint right!

I must jump on the band wagon here and say some more good things about Craig.
Top notch fellow and humble as the day is long.
Fantastic craftsmanship and is a true living legend in our beloved sport.
