The Half Breed that I ordered from Craig after some recent events in my life.  Texas Ebony riser and tip overlays....Elk grip.

Ron Roehrick just sent me some pictures of his new bow by David Miller. WOW!!! What a beautiful bow! I'll let him fill in the details.
     
     
   
Now that is one gorgeous bow!

Sweet HH Half breed. Yew and Texas Ebony.

[Ron Roehrick]

Thanks Nick for posting photos. The Yew Special is 66" amo and 48lbs at 26" a 1 1/4" of backset brown glass with a stunning piece of Mrytle that David was saving for a special bow. I am one happy bowman. It shoots great and draws so smooth. Mr Miller is an artist with special talent.

Ron, beautiful bow from David. If that is some of the yew that I think it is, it is more special than most know!  

[Rossco7002]

Wow Ron! That is amazing! I have been going back and forth about ordering another bow from David - either a Hawk or a yew Old Tom and that bow of yours sure throws some fuel on the fire!

Well, conditions are not right for our Bdub trip and my back tells me that I should not be lugging heavy packs right now, so, we're going on a road trip to see a Tradgang sponcer. I hope the storms don't kick my butt. This will be different and probably the most expensive way to order a new bow possible.

Ron, I guess WOW! That bows exactly the right combo I would order. The spects are exactly right also. 48 @ 26 is perfect. Beautiful bow, just georgeous. Big congrats and God bless.

[Ron Roehrick]

Thanks for all your replies, I picked the Yew with brown glass because David said that was the combo John Schulz was shooting in his film hitting them like Howard Hill. Also I have a yew and bamboo made by David that was really a smooth shooter so I thought why not a Yew with brown glass. The special piece of highly figured Mrytle contrasted nicely with the yew and brown glass. David is a real artist. Ron.

I don't like the look of fancy veneers under clear glass on Hill style bows. I don't know why,because I love the looks of highly figured,curly,burly veneers on recurves and R/D longbows.For a glassed Hill style I think yew or 'boo under brown glass back and belly is "The" look.

[Goshawkin]

Hey Green, Nice bow and I hope both "second chances" work out for you.

[Green]

Thanks Nick.  Grip's pretty small so I sent Craig an email about that, but the performance and smoothness is just what I'm looking for.

Does anyone think that THe Northern Mist Shelton are slower than most Longbows out there?

[David Mitchell]

Mine sure isn't.

[Bowitis]

I have never shot through a crono, But I agree with David, I love mine.  My Shelton is a "Keeper"

Gave my NM Classic a workout today, and took this photo for the large backstop topic:

   

It was the Misty Dawn's turn last night.

Sure wish I could shoot more than 50 arrows before getting tired!

What a great wood combo for the handle riser and limbs Green!  I like that contrast!

Enjoy!

Shoot straight, Shinken
