Boy Dave, that is a pretty bow. Too bad the shelf is on the wrong side.      :)    God bless brother, Scott.

My lineup so far from left to right:

 

J.D. Berry Misty Dawn, Dave Johnson Red Cedar "Whitetail Magic" and a N.M. Classic.

Decisions decisions is right.  I picked up my first Hill style longbow from Overspined when this thread was on page 235.  Since then I have developed issues.  These are the bows I made this spring after giving a coupe/few to friends.

 

 

 


 

I made several(currently lost track of how many) playing with different stack tapers, tip and limb widths, etc.  Having a ball.

Makes me want to make more!

But...which one to hunt with.  Or do I need to try to get each bow a kill?

I've got you covered.  Some don't like the white belly for hunting though...  ;)

Nice collection Eric.
I really enjoyed our short visit at the GLLI.
Keep up the good work on the bows. You do a great job. Hope we can shoot sometime and teach Matt a lesson or two.

Thank you Chuck.  Seeing your bows makes me want to redo every bow I have.  I love your attention to detail and craftsmanship.  Your bows show me how far I have to go...

Erik, since I am ambidextrous and have shot lots of deer with white glassed bows, that double shelf bow would work fine for me. What are the specs on that?

These last couple of pages have been hard to work through.  So many beautiful bows.....and we all want to shoot each and every one of 'em!
