HH bow for wife ?
« on: November 04, 2012, 03:00:00 PM »
My wife needs a new bow and I would like to get her a Howard Hill longbow. This is the problem She is a very petite with a draw lenth of 23.5" and her max weight is about 25#. So I'm stuck between the bear cub or a bobcat model, is the bear cub build for kid size shooters or will it fit a teen or small adult. If anyone has one, I would like their thoughts. Thanks Jon

She should be fine with the bow as long as its 62" or so long.

60" would work just fine as well.

X2.  I would go by whatever Craig recommends.
