Title: New to Me Whisper
Post by: 1/4 away on April 07, 2012, 07:01:00 PM
Just wanted to show off a few pics of my latest acquisition. A Northern Mist Whisper. Workmanship is flawless and she shoots even better than it looks. This bow is everything you'd want in a bow.

I am a hard core Hill bow fanatic, and along with the standard, this is my favorite shooting bow.  I wish I would have known it earlier, but I have 2 of my dads I am shooting and they are amazingly accurate.  I will have to have one eventually.

Thanks guys.

Keefer, I had to do it now before the wife retires in June then she'll be home all the time and I won't be able to sneak a new bow in the house. Besides not too many more to go. I'm up to the N's....   :biglaugh:      :archer2:

Ron, It's 64" 53#@28" bocote riser and tip overlays, bamboo core (I think) and American Elm limb veneeers, . But don't waste your time looking for it cuz it ain't going anywhere.  :nono:

Fred,
Mine doesn't even know of that Fox Royal Crown I got about 4 months ago yet...I was sweating bullets tracking it and when I came home with the girls our 6  year old Ande said "Daddy is that another bow in that pipe"? Nope just a pc.of pipe to use for plumbing if I need it I said....Kids will rat on ya in a heartbeat and lucky me it was only a trade but the wife still gets upset cause of the shipping charges etc...The good thing is if ya got about 10 bows it starts looking like shoes in a womens closet...You cann't determine what's new and what's old...Get as many as you can before June brother..   :thumbsup:    :biglaugh:
