From the box to the backstop!
« on: January 18, 2011, 03:29:00 PM »
They arrived!!! HH "Robin Hood" and Bama Hunter.

I took them straight out of the box, strung them up(nothing else)'

I shot six arrows (Thanks Snag!)out of each bow at 12 yards.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Thank you for looking!

God bless,Mudd

Two at once? How did you decide which one to go after first? Hows that HH feel?

The Bama is 68" and 50@28.

You are correct, it does feel a lot like Christmas!

Thanks for the kind comments.

Two beautiful bows Mudd! I'm partial to the Bama, as I have one, and the grain in that Bocote is awesome. When you can I'd be interested in your opinion of how they compare in shooting characteristics. Congrats!

Mudd, you musta been doin sumpthin wrong. If you did everything right you could not possibly have grouped those arrows that way without bare shafting and messing with the nock point, brace height, positive tiller, etc.

You better start ALL over!   :saywhat:

My initial thoughts are that it's not going to be possible to compare these two bows.

They are as much different as they are alike.

Both need some tuning but I really like them both.

Thanks for the kind comments.
