It is probably named by the customer,I've seen some other ones two.Craig made a Half Breed for a customer and named it"Autmun Whisper" where he usally writes Half Breed on the limb.I had a 5-lam Wesley with a name of "Razorback" wrote on the limb.Craig will do that if the customer requests it.

Craig has a reflex/deflex longbow that he builds on request. It is not listed on his web site and it is not named  "Sweet Thing II". It is called the "Badger". I expect the name "Sweet Thing II" was requested by the original buyer. You might contact Craig at HH Archery for info. I believe "Mudd" here on TG would also be able to help you. If I'm not mistaken he recently sold one.

What Bill said....If it is a Hill R/D bow, it is surely a Badger. Not cataloged and not listed on the website.

ya it is a Badger, thanks guys i call Craig and his son explained it to me and the "Sweet Thang II" is just a name the customer added to it, it looks like a sweet enough piece and i can get it for under $325 so i may grab it, he said they only make about 20 of them a year and this one is from 1998

Armand,

I think I "stumbled" across that same bow.  Thought about buying it but want to try a few other bows first.  I say, buy it and let the rest of us know how it shoots!
