I Think Its Time for a Hill Bow PICS Thread....
« on: December 20, 2010, 12:34:00 PM »
Hey alL,

With all the talk lately about Hill Bows and a few pics here and there, I thought its HIGH TIME for a good Howard Hill Bow PICS thread.  Does anyone ever tire of seeing pics of great looking bows and gear?  I know I don't, especially when they are of Hill style bows.

I know there are other bowyers out there that make Hill STYLE bows that are awesome as well.  Here at Christmas time, lets not be exclusionary in our zeal.  Come one, Come ALL.  Lets see 'em ALL!  The only thing is that you should ID the bows that aren't Hill bows so we can know where to go and get more info when we see the pic.

I wish I had a Hill so I could kick off the thread.  Next year I will.

Lets see 'em guys.

Robtattoo, Does that come with a leather wrapped handle and is fastflite compatible?

I probably shouldn't have asked for this thread cause I know it's going to make me want one even more.  I have wanted a Hill and a Bear TD for MANY years now.  I don't know why I have never seriously tried to get one.

I would really like to try one before I bought one.  Finding TRAD outlets here in SouthWest Florida isn't easy.  I think there is one get together in and around Ocala, but I haven't been to it yet.

Keep 'em coming....I'll just have to deal with the pain.

Beauties......


Hey all.  I wanted to ask about these bows and hopefully get some pics and thoughts on them.

I have read that BamaBows makes a great Hill style bow.  Anyone?  Also Mohawk is mentioned as a great Hill Style.

lpcjon2....   sorry, man, but they are long gone.  I took that picture of my collection for a Hill calendar I put out a few years back.   It was totally awesome!   That was the cover, and each month was a full color of one bow.  It was a free download to the Hill Longbowmen.

The bow collection was sold when I decided to equip a bow shop and build.   All the money is in the bank account of Grizzly Tools.  :^)
