wanting to know the how far the arrow shelf is cut from center.
mine appear to be about 1/8" from center
Mike M's got it... 1/8" is pretty much the norm... give or take... plus or minus a pinch... or a smidge... I guess my standard is "not quite to center", which generally eyeballs out to about 1/8"... It's not super critical if you match arrows well. In fact, about one bow in four I don't cut a shelf in at all, shoot 'em the old fashioned way, like when we were kids. They shoot just as well, just takes a lighter spine.
Thanks guys, just acquired a howard hill cheetah 66" 56@28 can't wait to get it.
Man, you need to make sure and post some pics of that beauty for us Hill lovers! :thumbsup: :D
Congrats and welcome to the family! :clapper:
I can tell you for a fact that it is a real beauty and an even better shooter.
Howard Hill Cheetah aka "Keeper Kat".
If she would have lost weight like I told her she'd still have a home here....lol
I really do know better than to talk about a lady's weight.

God bless,Mudd
"Mudd" sold his "Cheetah". The sound you just heard was the critters in MO saying God Bless Mudd. He just made the swamps safer for his 4 legged friends. Can't believe it happened. What's the world coming to? :banghead:
Man, I sold my Cheetah during the summer...I miss it! I still have th ol Wesley though! My go to this year!
Man that is a beauty of a bow! I may have to look into a Cheetah as my next possible Hill bow! :D Thanks Roy, the wifes gonna kill me for sure!! :scared:
Thanks for the pics Mudd.The bow is prettier in person. Now which arrows does Keeper Kat want.
I traded off a bow once that I really like and have regretted it ever since. So, now I keep 'em all! I use the "regret" thing to justify keeping all my bows and never selling one off whenever I get a new bow. Consequently, I now have 2 Cheetahs. One is 40# and the other is 55#. I love beautiful cats.
I have traded a few I regret trading. I think I am getting the hang of how to grip the kat.
Once you hold her so she comfortable, it's all X's from then on..lol
Remember to hold her just like a girlfriend you like a lot. (Firm but not too tight)
Let her feel your whole hand from top to bottom.(even pressure)
God bless,Mudd
Soundman,
I've shot your bow & I'm sure it will be verything you expect. It shoots 55/60s really nice. If you don't like her, send her to me. I'll give her a good home :bigsmyl:
