Aaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!  Now that just can't be right to do a guy like that.  I even see a lefty Nate Steen bow there--o, the torment!  :banghead:

This is like being a kid in a candy store! You guys are killing me with these beauties. Love all the pics as they provide great wood combo ideas for future bows!   :thumbsup:

There is a town near here that had a choice, a university or the state insane asylum, they chose the insane asylum.  When anyone would exhibit traits of OCD everyone would say "they should take you to Cherokee".  Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, OCD, is an anxiety disorder and is characterized by recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and/or repetitive behaviors.  
  Apparently, it is addictive.  I almost, almost put in an order for every Hill model available at one time.  Something for the kids to fight over after my wife kills me.

Sorry Rob!

I wasn't thinking... just responded with a knee jerk reaction.

I'll watch it closer from now on.

God bless,Mudd

Yes the gray glass is still available! I think it would look really cool on the back with a white belly!

Was talking to Nate the other day and he told me........!  :)  Guess, I can't say either or he'll take away my "friend" status.

Just think you'll all be "impressed"!  :)

I have tried to get a variety. They are so stable and fun to shoot. They just fit me!

1) wesley w/ extra veneer of bacote on back for camo...its a real shooter
2)T/D cheetah matched to the wesley...same arrows for elk! or backpack trips with an elk inlay and extra cocobolo center lam w/ cocobolo riser
3)Redman...all yew..new in November w/ elk tips and black riser! Love it.
4)Redman for the wife
5)An excellent Northern Mist Classic 68". I LOVE this bow too!!! Unbelievably quiet and fast...hard to beat light stained curly maple veneers. If you love HH bows, try one.
6)hill style Black Rhino for the little one
7)Red Bear longbow for the little bigger one
8)XXX Got caught up in a big lay-off at work...so when I get rehired somewhere we will see!

Yup, I am infected. Why do I check the classifieds????

Mate, are you suggesting that my target panic , whilst at full draw inside the house , might bet the better of me ? ...
No, better not answer that...   :saywhat:
Any word on your delivery date for the new addition?

Just yesterday, I missed a shrub elephant at thirty metres, and then found myself having to try really hard not to drop the string as I drew and held on various spots out on the oval.

Craig told me it was nearly ready for glue-up a few days ago.
