Rob, Have you noticed any real differences between your string follow Hill compared to the backset Hills?.......and congrats on gettin yer bow back

for me, i've had two of craig's string follow hills and they feel more stable, steady, less hand shock (if hand shock was noticeable or an issue) than his straight or backset limbs.  don't notice any less performance, either.

re "150 lams", that is definitely the description I got with that light Hill I thought maybe I had gotten from Rob.  Like I said, faulty memory.   That had to be back at least in 2006...

The HH bug got me too.  I got my cheetah a few weeks ago, and i'm already plotting out the next one i want to order.  Can you get a silver hog inlay?  I still haven't shot one but i do love pork.

Sean,

if you've got one and thinking of another,  you're doomed man....a long, long, slow sickness from which there's no cure.  you might think you can take an occasional new bow pill to help recover, but that just makes everything worse...

and I'm very jealous of number four.  I'm thinking either a redman or half breed.  I would like to try the locater grip before i make another purchase.

Rob,
JFYI   I love the handle on that Big 5 you sold me.  Did you order that special or is it the normal shape?

i ordered that, it's craig new and vastly improved locator handle that really helps those of us using a single point of pressure grip and not the typical hill grip of death.  :D

I'm going to try the whole excess thing, like smoking a carton of cigarettes to make the thought smoking one more  sound terrible, I'm just gonna keep buying until i get tired of buying  :p

Sorry Sean I tried that and it doesn't work but I do have a lot of cool bows    :bigsmyl:   Since this thread started I got a Halfbreed, a Wesley, a Robin Hood, a Crocodile and I am thinking a call to Craig for a big five is in order.

God bless,Mudd

Sean,

About "North."

You've got it about 90 percent correct----if you like wild places.

Add in Australia----due south west to the extreme----the other 10 percent of WILD, and you've got it just right. Well, maybe 50 percent, judging by the size of the place.

Not that I'm biased of course. I just like wild places.

As far as the sickness goes, I can tell you the outcome...  When you reach the point you can't buy more (I had between 30 and 40!) you start trying to learn to build them!     I haven't got a clue to a cure for that!   :)
