No we don't have a hill style grip, they  all are custom shaped to your specs.

We hope to be at ETAR next summer you should come by and shoot one

Be sure to check out our website

Hey, what's with that wolf track!   :D

That is a stunning bow! I really like the limb design and riser stripes. Great job and congrats on getting Yew as a select choice.   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

That is one sweet looking bow. Yew really made the wood pop in that one.

I just got my ST. Joe River bow a few weeks ago and man does that thing SCREAM an arrow!! Mine is a 60" longbow and at 54# shoots faster than my friends 63# Black Widow recurve!! I have never shot a short bow so forgiving and stable!  Thats with my longbow I can only emagin what kind of speed you'd be looking at out of one of there recurves!!!

Oh man Dave, that is pretty!! I really like the camo job on it, looks natural.   :thumbsup:  

Those recurves are very quick Rob. I've always been a fan of longer curves till I shot Daves 56 incher.
