I think the Cheetah is the prettiest bow Hill makes.  Every time I see pics of a Hill bow I like it, but I think the Cheetah with that reddish yellow color is just something special.  One of these days I am gonna have to have one.
Thanks again for all the pics.

Thanks to all,

I am really proud to own such a piece of american
craftsmanship, it´s simply a beautiful, fast Bow.
For me perhaps also a piece of American history!

Again, thanks at Craig for this great work.

If I keep looking at bows that nice, I'll end-up with the same problem Dick in Seattle has - too many (or never enough) Hills!

Something is indeed magical about the Cheetah as it is hard to find a bad one.  The Cheetah seems to turn out exceedingly well for many Hill fans with few complaints.  I do believe the Cheetah is also the personal go to bow for both Craig and his son when they go hunting.  I'll also add it is my go to hunting bow as well.

That is a great looking bow you got there, definitely a keeper!

Best
