I wanted a green one to go with my green fiberglass.  Oh well, hot pink is going to look so luscious on me and Brian.  We are going look just fabulous.

Brian, James said your shirt is "special".  Every bowyer needs a staff shooter, and you're it I guess.  He asked me to spell your name and we wrestled with that for a bit....in the end, we just put "Cait" over the breast pocket area.

That'll work, right?

some dayze it kinda all comes together a bit better and there's some pride in the outcome.  trying to stay "bow sharp" for whenever, if ever!, a hunt comes along.  68" 7lakes hill style string follow longbow @ 19 yards.  i like my pink "flowers" best.    :D

Ok, here's my latest acquisition, as I have said here a few months back, I find it near impossible to not keep a Hill bow of some kind on the rack, they are just too fun and too simple.  

I figured there are not a lot of pics of the limited editions around so here's some to change that.

Howard Hill "Robin Hood", limited edition #50 of 50.  Texas Ebony riser with silver Robin Hood hat inlay, riser behind the lams, 4 laminations of selected Yew, backed with blonde bamboo, clear glass.  Tip overlays of Texas Ebony and Mammoth Ivory.  68" 55@28.  Locator grip AND a dual shelf!  What a find!

She's also a string follow profile, so I'm pleased to report that she's a shooter.  So far, I think this puppy holds its own with a Shelton.  I think the Shelton has a slight edge, but not by much.  I'm really enjoying the locator grip, its one of the main reasons I snagged this one.

I may have Big Jim throw on a new beavertail grip and rests this coming weekend when I attend the shoot he's doing at his place.
