Howard Hill Halfbreed Arrived!
« on: March 10, 2008, 08:25:00 AM »
My New Howord Hill Halfbreed arrived today. She is 66 inches and draws 52@28. Bamboo core with extra lam of bamboo and Yew on the Belly and Back, with Cocobolo handle and overlays! What a work of art! She is beautiful! And she is named Autumn's Whisper.  
   
 I took her to shoot. And she draws as smooth, and is as accurate as any bow I've ever shot, with no hand shock or stack of any kind. Besides aesthetically a beauty. This is now one of my favorites.  
 
         
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

Really nice! I am thinking about a Howard Hill bow as well. Just can't decide between a Big Five or a Cheetah. Now I have to think about maybe a Halfbreed!
