Title: HILL COUNTRY
Post by: huntmaster80 on April 07, 2011, 12:43:00 AM
well im thinking about getting a second bow.  I have a chise's A-Stalker 45# @ 28 60", that is awesome. Mark builds an Awesome bow. super smooth, fast and zero hand shock.

But I am thinking about gettin a Hill Country K2.  the problem is trying to find one.  

can I get some reviews, and maybe a couple pics of som wood combos on a K2 if anyone has one to share pics of. Or u could just send me one since im such a nice guy. ha ha..... thanks for all the feedback in advance!!!  :archer2:

Great bows.  There was a review of the K-2 in the most recent TBM you might find helpful.

Traditional Ways, LLC - a sponsor here can help you with further information.

I shot all kinds of bows at Kalamazoo.  I think the K-2 was the fastest one I shot.  

I have a Wildcat and my wife has a Harvest Master.  We obviously think highly of them.  Roman is a fabulous craftsman and great to work with.

There is a smoking deal on a two limb set K2 in the classifieds if it fits your needs.  I would have it if I wasn't about a month away from getting my wildcat.  I shot about everything at Kzoo.  I can't tell speed over the 25' or so of arrow flight there, but the K2 LB shot well.  I have shot the Wildcat and Harvest Master over longer ranges.  They are not the fastest bows out there, but they have very good speed. The K2 is supposed to be faster yet.  I didn't pay particular attention to the K2 in the hand, but the Wildcat and Harvest master are as close to dead in the had I have shot, and excellent in that departments considering they are not heavy mass weight bows.

I just read the review in TBM and I was impressed with it, now I would like to see one in person.  Nice looking bow.
