3 Weeks! I won't even have it paid for in three weeks. Or maybe I will.

It's hard enough to throw down the money for a new bow, but I think Craig does offer a pretty fair value.

I'll probably buy another sometime after this one. Pretty quick turnaround time.

..........and five weeks later! Man, what a looker. Craig used some fantastic looking yew lams.  I'd barely even heard of wenge(for the riser). It's a really dark brownish/black wood he used.

I'm not gonna try to shoot it today 'cause of this elbow flarin' up, but I've been doing some stretches that I read about on here and they are helping quite a bit.

Here's some pics, but I could not get them to do the bow justice. Hope they post ok.....I'm just gonna' stay up all night and admire it...Thanks for lookin'...Peace

WooHoo! IA you've got a keeper there! That is one gorgeous bow. I had a Half-Breed with an ebony riser and it looked just like this one. Sold mine to Tom M here on TG because it was a little too heavy since I've put on a few years.....   :(  

Congrats man, you did real good. Craig is a jewel to deal with isn't he?

You're right Danny. That bow is almost identical to the one you sent me. Thanks again, I've put a bunch of arrows through it in the short time I've had it and it will continue to get a lot of use.

Randy, if your bow shoots half as well as mine you will be well pleased.

Love that classy look Hill bows have, real sleek. I wish I could shoot one, lord I tried, just not for me. But congrats on the bow, it is a very sweet looking bow.

Very nice! I only have one Hill bow--Wesley Special-I also have a Northern Mist or two--I love the way the Wesley shoots--might have to try one of those Halfbreeds one day.

Heck, Craig messed up and put that shelf on the wrong side   :eek:  That is one beautiful bow.  You're really going to enjoy that one.
