My Wesley is special
« on: April 06, 2012, 11:41:00 PM »
Just wanted to say a few words about the H.H. I recieved the other day from Cris M. Not to long ago, I posted a thread mentioning I wanted to try a H.H. bow. I'v been interested in the Hill line of bows for a while now and used the thread to ask some questions and advice.Chris sent me a pm and offered to sell me his Wesley special once he recieved his new one.The bow is 68" and 56#@28".This bow is everything you guys said it would be and more.I could'nt believe how smooth it drew and how accurate it shoots. Absolute,total instant love affair. Thanks Chris M and all the Hill style TGer's who gave me advice and guidence.  Knawbone   :wavey:      :archer2:

I'm just ready to bite the bullet on a stock Wesley Craig has.I'm wondering how much differance there would be between my old Cheetah at 66" and string follow with Yew cores and 5 lambs of Bamboo in a straight or setback profile in ease of drawing,shock and speed.The Wesleys going to be 68".My draw is 27-27-1/4".

Well I was on a Bear Kodiak hunt untill I started reading the HH thread.  I had heard all the bad things about a HH, then boom this big online love affair.  Now I am looking at ordering a Union Jack or a new longbow that is being designed as we speak by an up and comming bowyer. And i wouldnt mind have #1 off the form.
