We all know Hill bows are great, but the unsung hero is a good Hill-style glove.  If you want to improve your ASL shooting, buy Stephen Graf’s book and see what he (and Nate Steen) has to say about it.

Tradcat, that ASL on the left has a touch of backset while the Superior in the middle is a mild R/D and the Ramer is a string follow.

If your draw length is right at 26”, is it crazy to consider a 64” string follow bow or is 66” better?

Better for what?  Speed?  I doubt you could tell a difference at 2”.  At 27.75 I like 66-68 or even 70”.  I really can’t tell a difference in speed with his R/D vs a SF @ 66”

No worries.  Trad give Steve a call.  He’ll square you away on the question front.

I was wondering if anybody out there has a picture of the HHA "Antelope Special Edition" bow? I've done some searches and haven't been able to track a picture of one down yet. I don't remember what year those were offered but man I haven't been able to stop thinking about them lately. Thanks for the help!

I once talked to Steve Turay about the loss of speed with his string follow bows. He said it was no more than 1 or 2 fps, which, in my opinion, is a non-factor. 66 vs 68 inch in bow length hasn't made a difference that I can detect, either.

Was playing around with a HH WS.  I was going in and out of my shed where my solar panel batteries are housed when two deer mice darted out.  I can’t stand mice.  So I took a little bird seed and spread it around near a hole where they had some tracks around.  I passed on one when he ran near the shed wall.  When another went out and gave me a clear shot I took him.  Head shot, 12 yards and another trophy deer mouse down.

Craig still offers the Special Edition Antelope.  Give him a call.

Great book by Steve.  No doubt the HH glove is a plus.   I tried many different gloves over the years.    The Hill gloves are by far the best for me.
