I spoke to Jason last week, he told me since, I posted the pics of my bow, he's been getting a lot of calls about the caremlized bamboo. And I just got off the phone with Craig, he told me that the orders are coming in as well for the Carmelized Bamboo Hills.

This year is going to be good for Ekins, with the Robin Hood bow and guys wanting new bows with the carmelized limbs.

Drool!

That's another awesome looking Hill you've posted there Rob.

God bless,Mudd

PS: Thank you Pavan for your offer of help and thank you also Rob!

My "Robin Hood" isn't at any risk of being lost though. I am way ahead of my payment schedule with Craig, it's just me that was whining...lol

I wanted a Tembo as I haven't had one yet. Plus, it will be one to stay as I'm dedicating it to my son when he gets old enough to shoot it. All he talks about is shooting bows with his Papa!   :D

Can't say more or I'll be giving away the excitement of getting it.   :)

Darren that's a great looking bow, what is the riser wood ? CocoBolo? That's what I got on my Wesley and ordered dark Shedua on my B5.

Man, you guys are re-infecting me with the bug    :banghead:

I want a new one, but my best friend and I are trying to get the $$$ together to open a fly shop, so it'll have to wait. I decided if we get it up and running, I'll celebrate the 1 year mark with a new bow.

Frank, I am now 99% a Howard Hill only fan. I do have one recurve from Maddog Archery that I can't let go as it is #1 of his new 60" recurve model.

Went through an enormous amount of different bows just to find that I love and shoot Hills the best. Nothing like a good ole American Classic to sooth the savage beast!    :archer:  

'Course this is only one mans opinion.    :D

I am thinking that I might have to get myself a Half breed later in the year.

Inner lams of bamboo and outer lams of yew under black glass with some nice dark riser wood. 68" and around 48-50@28.

I'm sure dreaming is ok!!..lol

God bless,Mudd
