Now that right there's what I call a bow. The deep-core riser looks like it would fit real nice in the hand and the two-tone look is striking. Add some real arrows (real = wood) and there ya'go...just like they used to do it. Kinda' makes me want to grab the Big Five and go shoot some ice blobs off the bag in the back yard.

Like they used to do it...too bad that phrase doesn't mean too much in archery these days.

Enjoy your shootin', Cody!

If Cody don't mind I will detail the bow.
It is a cool bow to say the least. It is NARROW. about 1" at the widest and tips are maybe 3/8" Tiller was sweet, just a hint of whip end to it.
The riser was two tone as TSP said. the riser being yew and the sides of the riser are laminated with glass. I would guess for stiffness. Black glass back and white belly.
The deep riser grip was just about right, 2" I would guess. It is a nice bow, unlike any other Hill style that can be seen today. I really enjoyed looking at Jon Lees and David Millers collection of Hill and Shultz Bows at KZOO this year. THAT IS SOME COOL STUFF.
Congratulations again Cody
Chuck
