Hill call.......... I Mean Mail Call!!!
« on: January 27, 2011, 01:16:00 PM »
Well I worked a deal with Sir Mudd. This is the Jerry Hill Stalker Deluxe 68" 50#@28". Here is some pix I took.
 
 

First set of arrows.
 

Second round flying.
 

Third round fly.
 

The white nock is a 2117 topped w/202grn point. The others are 2> 60-65 29"BOP w/160grn & 1> 55-60 29"BOP w/160grn

Going to melt down some split-shot for more weight in the 60-65's & the 2117 to see how they fly.

The felt great in My hand and feels great when loosing an arrow.

Yes, My main bow was My PSE Kingfisher recurve that is Now set-up as My Bowfishing rig (The main reason I got the bow). The pix of shots where 12 yards away and once I play with point weight I'll be ready..

In a few weeks I'll be back up in the Sam Houston National Forest to look for pigs. Then try and do a weekend in March up there.

How about a close up of the back and belly? Are those camo lams?  They look nice.

Ahh, my old Jerry Hill.....really liked that bow. Best of luck with her and if you have good luck hunting let us know!! I traded that bow to Mr. Mudd, And before that It came in a trade from PaPa Frank......she gets around.

The limbs are camo, but wood camo. Maybe Ron W, Mudd or Papa frank can let Us know what type of wood.

I'm not a big fan of leather wraps on the handle so I did take that off. I guess it's because I love to look at Nice Wood. As soon as the batteries finish re-charging I'll take more pix and try and get a full draw pic.

The wood is camo action wood, not sure how they cut it to make it look like that, but several bowyers do it.....looks good to!

Way to go Sal! My J. Hill is one of the best surprises of any bow I ever got. I can shoot that thing all day. Yours is a beauty for sure.
