Hello Ron,
I like the dark Bocote, can you tell me was the bow marked exactly at 42@28''
or is it two pounds over, how many laminations and of what wood.
Very nice by the way.

Bow is just marked #17 by Craig Ekins, I have not even shot it yet due to shoulder issues! It it feels about 42-43 pounds

Golly, that is a pretty bow. But no other markings on it, like weight?

The bow has Howard Hill and Black Mamba on the limbs marked #17 that’s it. It has 4 lambs of bamboo and a dark lam in the center that runs full length.

Tim,
How does the Tembo compare to your Cheetah?
Do you like it as much, very interested in your reply.
I have just finished 182 pages of this thread and it's been fascinating
the comments you older more knowledgeable men have.

Well I have only had it 2 days now so hard to compare to the cheetahs but it’s so far amazing imo. No real difference in feel or speed as the cheetahs that I can tell really. I’ve read too how there isn’t much difference in hillls models and I guess that’s true for the most part. The only hill I’ve had that felt different was a half breed I had. That was extremely smooth in the draw but idk maybe it really wasn’t. Lol. I’d say pick the model you like the wood combos you like and enjoy it. Can’t go wrong with any bow from Craig imo. I just prefer the cheetahs looks more than anything else. But there is just something about brown glass on a asl I really like so when this came up I had to get it. Now a green one will be on my radar in classified adds to watch for

Hi all,
Here's a quick video of me mucking around with my Pacific Styk. My first time shooting wood arrows so it was a lot of fun. I can see myself getting more wood arrows in the future.

Is it purely aesthetics or is there an advantage in low light having light grey or white glass on belly side? Curious mind would like to know.

I have just managed to read all 291 pages of this thread, and the predominant bows of choice it seems to me are
H&H, JDBerry.Northen Mist.
that must say something to a prospective buyer, I have enjoyed reading every page for the insight of many.
I am now seriously thinking about ordering a H&H Cheetah with 3 lams of bamboo, would that be an improvement
over 2 lams or not worth bothering with?
