I’d love to try one of these long bows.  I have a Martin savannah. Wonder how it compares?

I ordered my first brand new HH bow from Craig in April.  He said it should be ready in about 3 months.  Yesterday was exactly 12 weeks (but who’s counting, ha!) so hopefully it will be here any day!

I am in the process of deciding which spine is best for my 68” Liberty. Paul Jalon sent a few test arrows to try.
I think I finally found a longbow I can shoot :biglaugh:
In my defense, two different spines.

Nice shooting Gary!  Liberty bows sure are nice.  Allen was a true artist.

Made a dozen broadhead arrows that I thought turned out nice and they shot really well.  C'mon deer season!

Those look awesome as well!!! I really need to try the hill heads. I have 5 to try but haven't set up any arrows with that heavy of a point. Love the looks of them though

Those Hill heads killed a Rhino!  They will work.  I plan to send one through an animal this year. 

This arrow has a little inscription I had to preserve...  Maybe it will bring a little extra luck?!

I have no doubt they will kill any animal. Also good call

Somewhere in the swamp... Got 10-12 yards from a sow and two shoats. She was hard quartering towards me so I didn't take a shot, and got smelt. So it goes. Beautiful country. 68" NM Classic. 52@28. I dislike the bow quiver on this bow, but sometimes its the easiest when walking miles in thick cover.

I’m gearing up for a bow fishing trip with two4hooking. It feels so wrong to strap anything to my Hill-style bow.  Hoping to land some big rays!
