Anyone see this fellas bows? I saw one of his handle forward 3 pc longbows on Tollgate Bowhuntings webs site. Hill Country Bows.
Any thoughts or comments? The price is alot lower than the Habu with the same style handle, which I like alot. Anyone shoot one?

I was at Tollgate archery just a couple of weeks ago. George speaks very highly of Hill Country Bows. I could not shoot one though because he only had a right handed longbow there at the time.
A friend of mine that was there with me got to shoot it though and he really liked it. He said it was a very smoth drawing quick shooting bow.

I shot one of their 1 piece longbows at Wheeling and it was sweet. Being from the Amish, both my parents, I spent alot of time talking with them at Wheeling. They are very knowledgable and straight forward. I was very impressed with them and their bows. Their right here in Ohio too.

I was going to start an post about this guy. I talk to him last weekend for I don't know how long. I shot every one of his bows. I think there very nicely hand made and every one of his bows shot very
nice. I told him the next time I want a new bow I think I may go with his bows.

I looked at his bows last weekend and they looked to be a very quality bow. He does good work for what it looked like.

I checked out the pics of that bow and it's very well done. Kind of reminds me of the widow design. I wouldn't mind having one myself.
