I know where you can probably get another one at a good price.

I'm glad you resurrected this thread Jerry.  Many of us are looking forward to the book.  Green

I've enjoyed reading your posts around he Jerry.

You should tell us some more stories, more often.

I had a 60@28 Wildcat for some time and liked it. My shoulders got so bad that I couldn't shoot it well anymore, so I opted for a lighter weight bow and went with a R/D design. I know this is an older thread, but congrats on your "new" bow.

Quotelocked shoulders.....  matched with properly matched arrows will shoot where your aiming.  Its the arrow that has to be right for the bow, or you will never be able to hit what you are aiming at.JERRY HILL........ [/QB]

Hi Jerry,

We are all waiting in earnest for the book...Hopefully it will be available thorugh amazon or somewhere which accepts paypal.

Anyway, I have quote some of your post above and am interested in what you mean by "locked shoulders."  I understand locked elbows, so I am avoiding doing that, however, I don't know how to avoid locking myshoulders. (I bet this is going to sound stupid after I have posted it   )

Briefly, how would I match my wooden arrows to my bow?  I wish to have about 27" arrows including point with 125grn up front (I draw 25.5" amo).  I have tried bareshafting and I gave up after breaking 5 shafts..  

Cheers

Alex, forget about the bareshafting. Never worked for me. The best to do is make up a dozen cedars and shoot them. The one's that shoot right for you, keep them together. Those that don't give them to children to enjoy. There is no substitute for shooting the real thing.in the past I have made 100 on one Fletcher, making sure that I had made them as close to one another as possible. Once I shot them, I found out which one's shot the best. Those I shot together.a pretty arrow doesn't make them shoot straight. The ugliest arrow in your quiver, might be your best shooter.treat the ones that don't shoot right as throw-a-ways.JERRY HILL....

Also I meant to add. Be sure you have plenty of fletch on your arrow. For bows 50lbs and up I wouldn't shoot anything less than feathers 6 inches. When you use this size fletch on your arrows, spine becomes less critical. If someone doesn't believe this take three shafts of the same spine and fletch one with four inch, the next with 5 inch and the third with 6 inch, all parabolic shape. See for yourself which one shoots best. If you have plenty of fletch on the rear of the arrow, it will straighten up quicker coming out of the bow and cause spine to be less critical. Don't worry about the speed factor, accuracy is of the most importance.if it is speed your after, shoot a broom straw through a chronograph. I promise your bow will be the fastest it can possibly be.JERRY HILL.....

I have a Jerry Hill, great bow and the grip is perfect for me.  For all you folks that don't like them, ship them to me I'll give them a good home.  Thanks Jerry for your comments nice to hear from the man who makes the product.

Love my Wildcat Deluxe, 57@28, it's gotta be one of my favorite ASL's under 60#'s.

Jerry, like others I'm stoked to hear about the new book! Please keep us informed when it finally gets out.

I'll definately be interested in Jerry's book...but a video would be even better.
