66"s of beautiful Yew, brown glass back and belly, and a gorgeous Myrtle riser, 57@27. I wasn't expecting this masterpiece until late in the year, but Nate snuck it in on me and almost gave me a heart attack when I unwrapped it! I'll get some more pics and put them and my shooting impressions in a dedicated thread over the next couple of days...once I get my pulse rate under control that is!      :clapper:  

Bet I know where that Yew came from!    ;)  

Spanky, now you must be the owner of the more Sunset HIlls than anyone else?

Spanky,

It was hard for me to contain myself when we spoke Saturday.  I knew that you were going to be excited!  Nate and I were giggling in the background but I guess you couldn't hear us.  

Enjoy the heck outta them and hopefully we can shoot some arrows together in the future.

By the way, time to update your signature line.

Ray, I knew you had to be a co-conspirator in this deal! Shame on you for trying to give an old Hill guy a heart attack!     :thumbsup:

Spanky,

Nate is the artist - I'm just a poser!   I hope I to add another SH to my rack.  I get to see the other beauties at one stage or another and I have only one.  My next one will be a bit of a departure, perhaps but no spilling the beans.   :dunno:

Don't be holding your breath Kevin while you wait for one of Spanky's SH's to be on the trade blanket. Afraid you won't make it!  "[dntthnk]"

You got that right Kelly! It's in my will that my casket is to have a nice padded sleeve approx 66" long sewn into the lid for each of my Sunsets! I might let St. Peter hold one for a minute, but he's gotta give it back!   :readit:    :D

I'll tell ol St. Pete that if he can beat me in a shoot-off, he can have the one that doesn't have my name on it!  :goldtooth:  If that don't work, then I'll just wait and tackle Nate when he comes by, and give him one of his!   :biglaugh:
