The riser is Bacote.

And yeah, They feel different. The Robin Hood is only 55#. This bow is 100#.

I love the Robin Hood bow. Mine is dual shelf and is soooooo smooth. I love it.

My Elephant Bow is super smooth, too. But, if you are not used to the hand shock that thing generates it will rattle your teeth.

Here are a couple pictures of my Howard Hill Dual Shelf Robin Hood.

I am pleased to announce my old Redman "The Chief" made it back home this morning.(Thank you TW)

We have about 6"'s of new unexpected snow on the ground this morning but I was determined to fling an arrow out of him.

I have to say it was as if "Chief" hadn't ever been gone at all. I only missed my intended mark by about 1/4".

Feels awesome to have my old buddy back in my hands.

God bless,Mudd

This thread is causing pain to my wallet!     :p          ;)     Look what I have coming from Stabow!  She has juniper lam on the back and bamboo on the belly side under clear glass and the deer inlay.  Boy....I'm cranked!

Maybe it'll ease up if I get a Halfbreed.(I've never shot one...... yet)

Got my Big Five back from HH today. They took a few pounds off and put the locator grip on it. I gotta say that is running neck to neck with my Mohawk for being my number one longbow ever....and I`ve had a bunch. The new grip is the best feeling grip I`ve shot on a longbow. Positive hand placement everytime. RC

Now daggumit RC, I just got my Cheetah back from Craig. I had it reduced and re-finished and was agonizing over having my dished grip changed to the locater. Was you're old grip straight or dished and did it make a big difference?
