thank you everybody for the positive comments.  I stink as a photographer and the pictures do not do it justice.  When my aging mother saw it she said it should  be hung on the wall as art.  That coming from a nonhunter.  His craftsmanship is as good or better than any I have ever, repeat ever seen and I truly feel he is one of the best kept secres in bow building.  I have been shooting it for a week and it is my "go to" bow without question. I was not aware I could get some of the groups I have been getting till I started shooting a Hill Country. Thanks again eveybody,, I hope Roman gets the recognition he deserves,

Not only is your Hill Country a looker, she appears to be quite lethal.

Congrats!!!!

Great shooting Matt. I saw it Saturday before last, before the last coats of matte finish were applied. She was purty then, but STUNNING now.

Since you talked Roman into making the changes on the grip, he's doing all the Wildcats like that now. I love it! Even more of a shooter now.

He's currently building me a 56" recurve, one piece, that I have the prototype of now. This one is 42# and smokes a heavy arrow. Mine will be 50-53#, and I can't wait to get my mitts on it.

That's a fine looking bow.  Looks like a psax riser with longbow limbs..hmmmm...idea!  Can he make a set of longbow limbs for my widow riser?

I am sure he can make just about anything!  He also makes finely crafted furniture as well.  I have already spoken to him about making a set of longer recurve limbs for tournaments and he said it would be no problem, all he will need is the riser so he can match them up.  That will be the hard part, letting go of it long enough for him to complete the limbs!  I am taking it afield for the next four days to see if I cant get a little blood in her eye.  Roman calls her "black death"  we shall see.  Kenny I would also like to buy  one of his short recurves in a one piece, he had one with a coco riser there that I was drooling on not long ago.  I have shot eight or ten of his bows now of different configurations and they are all quiet and fast.

Fountain, I asked Roman about your Widow limbs. The answer is no. Sorry. His press is set up to do Hill Country limbs. I'm sure Widow wouldn't build Hill Country limbs either.

You can reach Roman at 330-674-9609. Leave a message and he'll call you back. Or you can call me directly at 330-730-6478, I can take your order as well as send you any pictures I might have.

The new website is in progress   :pray:

Very nice bow!!  Congratulations!  I have a Wildcat and love it.

Kenny isn't lying about that 42# prototype short recurve he has.  That thing SMOKES a heavy arrow.

At 42# it would be pure joy to shoot all day.
