Howard Hill Award
« on: August 21, 2012, 02:15:00 PM »
Hi,
I am in the middle of packing all my archery gear up before I relocate to Canada, and found this in my tackle box...

 

 

What went into the center? It fits a quarter in it nicely...

 

Any information would be most appreciated!

Many thanks   :wavey:

It was actually given to me by Craig Ekin, after a visit to Howard Hill Archery. He was such a gracious host, a fine gentleman indeed.

back in the 70s if you shot a quarter out of the air, witnessed, you could send it in to HHA and they would mount it in the arrowhead for a momento.

I don't think a B-ball will fit in the arrow head Todd.  :p

Longbow1415,I assume you're familiar with the new federal regulations banning the import/export of Bubinga wood in Canada? I'd send you a copy of them but it's a really long,drawn out,mind numbing document. Probaly best for all involved parties to just send the award to me.  :saywhat:    :D  

That's a great piece! I'd love to have one. Now you have to go shoot a quarter and mount it in the award.
