Title: Hi My name is Mudd and I am a Hill bowaholic
Post by: Mudd on December 02, 2011, 03:18:00 PM
I think I need a shrink..lol

My head definitely needs to be examined.

I sometimes show the self control of a toddler in his terrible two's.

I wonder of there is a function that could be employed by "management" to block weak willed folks like me from being able to look only at the classifieds.

I basically emptied what little savings I had in order to get what I couldn't stop myself from having.

May not be the exact same bow, but it seems you've come "full circle" in a way...

Congrats, Mudd!

Mudd,

As you know, it is a one of a kind of the 50.

Only two were made with the dual shelf and this on is #50 of 50. So, pretty cool stuff.

I miss that bow already. If you tire of it, I want first dibs to get it back!

Matt

Glad you got another one.  I love this design.  Good luck with it Muddster!

Mudd, you're looking at this all wrong.  All the money spent in support of this habit is unavailable for any other temptations that may come along.  ;)

I have owned more then 50 Hills over the last few years.I have 6 still that I doubt I will part with unless something goes wrong .At one point Craig gave me his home # in case I had to get a hold of him after hours.Thats when I knew I had it bad !!!!!!!

I know how ya feel and want one of those "ambi" bows bad. That way my sons who shoot from opposite sides of the bow can share it when I am gone.

Problem is with the wife. If I buy another Hill my name will be Mudd!!!

It's number 50 of 50 and the weight is 55@28.

I am blessed to be able to get it. I know that I will pay for it far beyond the cost of the bow but I've put myself in tight straits before so I have faith that I'll make it.

Anyway any hardships I face because of it are all my own doing and I am counting on it being worth it in the long run.

Thank you all for the kind comments.

God bless,Mudd

Mudd,
Look at it this way, the cure may be worse than the sickness. Or another twist, you have your "thorn in the flesh" just so you will remain humble!    :laughing:        :laughing:        :archer2:    

You have a lot of company if that makes you feel better!

Nice bow MUDD
   I talked to Craig years ago about an ambi bow....
   I like shooting Ambi, it realy builds you up.
And at some shoots, the target is easyer to shoot lefty than right....
   We could start a hole new class at the shoots, Ambi class, shoot odd tagrets right and even targets lefty....

Hawken, keep your eyes open! Mudd goes through em!!!  Lol
Nice bow mudd!  I have the other ambi robin hood. I enjoy shooting both hands, I just close my right eye when I shoot lefty. It helps with your muscle balance and gives you a little break when u switch it up

Post by: Hawken1911 on December 03, 2011, 08:02:00 PM
I can't believe this.  Mudd, I assumed you bought it from Matt.  But I was just browsing the classifieds and saw Kevin bought it from Matt and turned around and sold it a week later.  Missing out once is one thing, but missing out twice in a row...  :banghead:    Plus this comes after finding out about the special edition Robin Hood models just after they sold out in the first place.  

I sincerely hope you get a life time of enjoyment out of it, but if you ever decide to let it go, PLEASE consider it pre-sold and PM me.

Thank you Paul!

I wish I had the resources to a collector of all of the limited edition Hill bows.

But I am nothing more than an impulse buyer who sometimes doesn't show the self-control of a raging hormonal teenage boy...lol

Hawkin, not only did I want that number, I actually had reserved No. 50 of 50, it but because of finances I couldn't follow through and order it.

Congrats Mudd, now that you also know my story, I hope to see you and our bow at the Howard Hill Southeastern Classic, here in Alabama.

If you don't know, I host a separate competition at the Classic for Hill style only bows.  It's called the "One Shot~One Kill" competition, and it's very unique.

Muddward, Muddward, I don't know what to say here.  I am going have to start playing poker again to keep up with you?  I pledge that I am not going to get one of the fancy Millers until I can buy both models with pocket cash at the same time.  I do have a couple of old coins that I could sell that could buy a bunch of them.  I would have to convince the wife first, if I just disappear, that would mean that she did not approve.  My reality safety valve wife usually knows best.
