Oh yeah ! One interesting thing is my other 2 Hills have dished grips this one is full. Can't tell alot of difference but I may like the full grip a tad better. This bow is a good shooter for me. It's a keeper for sure.
Rob I did whiz a flu-flu 10 feet over Jacks ( my dog) head, he thought it was a pheasant ( probably ) and took off after it.

Whoa, that's a gorgeous bow.  Even got the shelf on the correct side.   :thumbsup:  You are so gonna enjoy that bow.

Got an email from Craig today! Bow has been shipped.  We'll see how long it takes to get across the border.  Not bad considering I ordered 2 weeks ago!
