Thanks much!  I've got to credit my son ( Squirrelbane here ) for the photography.  The kid's got an eye.    :)

I'd sure hate to get within your range if I was a critter that was on your list RC.

I could take a few lessons from you for sure.

Thanks again for sharing with us via your camera.

God bless, Mudd

A question for all you HH longbowmen.

I've never had the pleasure of shooting a HH, but I own and shoot a 65" BamaBow straight-limbed LB.  

For those of you who have shot both, how does shooting a HH compare with the BamaBow?

I have two Bamas, one 64" and one 68". I like them both and shoot them right along beside my Hills.

Thanks Mudd.

Thought that was the case, but there is no substitute for actual experience.

I just received a 68" 45# @ 28" David Miller "Old Tom" today. It is a used bow built in March 2010. It shoots well and is crafted nicely.

My first David Miller bow. I have had several other Howard Hill and Hill style bows by top builders. This is a nice bow. Here are photo's:

I really liked that bow the first time I saw it! That Myrtle riser is the bomb. My next Tembo is going to have a Myrtle riser. I hope to find some here in Oregon and have it sent it to make the riser out of. If I remember correctly, Myrtle wood is only found in a few places in the world and Oregon is one of them.
