That is a real looker. I'm a fan of veneers in lieu of colored glass.

Glad you like it guys.

Westbrook...thanks and good luck next week.  Hopefully you're not too busy with work to get out next week for the opener.

Typical 2, since this is for a good cause, maybe the Admins and readers wouldn't mind you letting us know how to bid on it.  If I'm out of place here - let me know or just delete this reply.

I was wondering if it would be possible to offer the posts from HH Bug Got Me (part 1) on a cd or memory stick for sale - proceeds going to Trad Gang, of course.

How many use fast flight strings with padded loops on the older Hill bows? I was thinking of trying one on my Grevy but dont want to damage it as they are irreplaceable.

I had a 71# 70" Zebra by Louie and put a 18 strand FF string with loops padded 24. This was 15 years ago and it was my main bow for over 8 years. Finally sold it and the buyer kept the same string. I've used FF, D97, etc on every Hill and Hill style bow I've ever owned and never had any issue.

Sport Hunter....I build a 10 strand D10 string with loops padded to 16 for my Hill bows.  I had tip overlays put on my Jerry Hill and shoot this string daily on this bow.  This bow has a low serial # compared to many I've seen, but I'm not sure how long ago it was built.

I bought  an old ragged no-cover-left book at an antique festival.

This pic was one shown in the book.

I also bought a few old archery magazines. In one, Howard wrote a letter to the magazine clearing up a claim the United Press made about him discrediting a fellow archer of killing an elephant.

If I can, I will re-type the letter in its entirety. It'll take me a while though. I type slow and Howard wrote a good bit.

Our deer season opens Tuesday, hopefully I'll get some time to spend in the woods. Got a new bow that needs some Mojo on it......
