Several different bows. 66" Wesley 50@27. 66 Cheetah 56@28. 66" Cheetah 59@28. 64" Apex Predator Cumberland 52@27 and a Homemade 66" 52@27. All sweet shooters.

   I enjoy shooting Hill style bows more than any and they have a way of pulling a fellow that most folks don`t understand. To me its the way a longbow is supposed to be. Not starting a fuss with other bow styles just admitting an addiction.RC

Admitting you have an addiction is the first step to recovery... you've openly admitted... and from all of your harvest pics we can see you've "recovered"... a lot.

Thanks for sharing and I hope you never get over your addiction.   ;)

Nice RC!

I really appreciate you helping to feed my addiction vicariously via your photos.

Great job!

I am also grateful that because of you I have a beauty of a 66" Cheetah 56@28. Thank you!

God bless,Mudd

Awsome pics. All this talk about Hill style bows is going to make me have to build at least one. Trouble is I will end up selling it and then have to build another one, anyway you get the idea. Those are sure some pretty snakes . You ought to skin one of those bows with them. God Bless you. Steve

Craig ought to give you a bow as much stuff as you've killed with a Hill. Sure like the yellow on Marty's bow too. Get over this way give me a call. I went today in the cold rain after reading about you & your bud in the magazine. Nada. They're here just very nocturnal.

I ran the brace height way too high on that too-short Redman, before I knew any better. I sure can hardly wait for my new, better-length-for-me, Redman to arrive!

I know these photos are posted in a few places, but it was such a magic moment to capture on film that I hope you'll indulge me for sharing them again.
