It is more than just the longbow, it is a total shooting system that surrounds a shooting and hunting philosophy. the total Hill style package is addictive, flexible and compatible with most hunting situations. I just bought a Groves Spitfire Magnum, it is fast for the draw weight, I can blow nocks off my arrows like a crazy man, but I shoot twice as fast and nearly as accurate with my Hill style bows. My main bows for the starting of the year will be a yew Pete George lh and my own bamboo/yew rh. I just love the feel of a 68" longbow for small game and spot and stalk hunting.
