I wonder if any Howard Hill longbow advocates are going on RAGBRAI this year.  It starts here.  There is a group of pro-weed nudist looking for a place to camp, it cannot be in my backyard, we shoot our longbows back there.

Actually, I am dreading it.  It is really no place for a respectable longbow shooter to be, but a few years back, when it came through town, there were a couple that came over that were Hill shooters, when they saw me watching the thousands and thousands of bicycles go by with longbow in hand. There will be no alcohol, smoking, or nudity allowed on my property, but there may be steaks on the grill.

Watching Craig build a Mamba must have been a huge treat!  Heck, I'm sure it was the whole visit!

Those Mamba build pics are such a treat!

Well, the barn-find "White Eagle" Wesley Special I showed off finally arrived yesterday.  Will McQueen really hooked me up with this one.  Still can't believe its a 2002 built bow its like brand new!  Man what a bow!  The grip is 2 1/4 inches deep and wedge shaped, SO perfect to hold, and the dang thing doesn't even feel like 62#, must be the 69 inches haha.  My first Wesley Special, I'm pretty impressed.  Something special about it being a mimic of one of Howard's.  Def giving it some time in the woods this fall.

Btw, McBroom forward-handle stringfollow headed my way, stay tuned for a little review later this week.

Those Mambas' are real nice looking. If I wasn't waiting on a Bow currently, I'd probably order one. Congrats

The limbs are a bit more narrower then I'm accustom to and the handle on this bow is smaller and took a minute too get the hang of shooting it. It's very light in hand compared to the other nine ASL's I own.That being said it is a real shooter and the custom work on this rig is spot on. Worth every nickle. [/url] [/IMG]
