Would this stuff be a decent finish coat(s) for a self bow? I'd like to use it because almost all of my staves are coated with with it once the back ring is chased to prevent checking. It would be easy to scuff up that layer and add a few more. Opinions?

Another thing that I've noticed with the Simmons heads and I'm assuming it is because of the concave design of the head, is that they tend to cut the hide larger than the width of the blade so you do get a bigger slit.

Its been a long bumpy road for the current owner to get Damon Howatt back up and in production. I wish him well and hope he is successful making it profitable with high quality.

Has anyone taken possession of a new DH bow? Comments, reviews?

Understood. I would rather spend my time in the woods as well. My last shoot was before 03' when I was over around Augusta and there were 3 different clubs hosting shoots about every wknd and I was still shooting a compound. Just looking for a good group of like minded fellas. As the guy that got me into trad used to say "iron sharpens iron". If I'm successful, I'll relay here. Again, thanks.

PowWow / Howard Hill Archery
Last post by Burnsie - July 08, 2025, 02:57:24 PM
Just went to the Howard Hill Archery web site.
There is a video posted, where the new owner (Nathan Cocheran) introduces himself and comments about their journey moving HHA to Tennessee.  The video is the only thing on the web site, no other drop down menus, or selections.
It sounds/looks like he's getting close to starting production?

Quote from: Bamboozle on July 08, 2025, 01:29:07 PMI agree with the sentiment of 'glad to see people commenting on these two styles of heads' that the narrow 2 blades that are total overkill on state side game.

As they say, pick your poison as both of these styles are bad medicine.  :readit:

Out of the animals have harvested with 3 to 1 ratio, 2 blade single bevels, I never had a good blood trail . If any blood at all. Switched to VPA
