Ron,
Which side is he gonna cut the shelf on?  After all, it would seem apropriate for you to have the honor of shooting #1.

per the topic starter ...

"Im ordering a new Wesley special today 66" 58@28 Now im going to have to tell the wife         "

... yep, this is a howard hill longbow thread, indeed!        

[Ben Maher]

I assume that if there is justice in the world that the Shrew Hill will be built appropriately...it will be long , lean and in honour of such luminaries as Bob Swinehart , Ron LeClair , David Mitchell and Me ...  
It'll be left handed !!!  

[frank bullitt]

Now, there is the division, Ben.

Hill thread or.... He was a righty, sir!  :D

[Benny Nganabbarru]

Hey, Mr. Maher: How come you're shooting right-handed in your avatar?

 

[JamesKerr]

This is truly a bow thread!

naw, a HILL LONGBOW thread!   :D    

[frank bullitt]

So how much can we disect this thread, Rob?

Really, the "Hill copies", are in honor of a man, and his bow.

Just look at all the pics over Howards span on this earth. The fellows he shot and hunted with didn't always shoot "His" bows.

He surrounded himself with good folks, who enjoyed shootin and huntin with a bow!

Great things are copied, why, cause they are!

[K. Mogensen]

This is a GREAT LONGBOW thread at that...

They sure do shoot! Here's a 20 yard group after tuning... One flyer ain't too bad...

 

I love how Craig matched the juniper in the limbs front and back...

 

[Ben Maher]

Dude...that is good shooting .
Man that is a sweet bow !

[sou-pawbowhunter]

That is a beauuutiful bow, and some darn fine shootin.  

[Nate Steen .]

KM.....handshock?  did you feel handshock?   I think not.....if these bows were so hard to control and shoot,  why are your arrows grouped so well?  and you're not even familiar with the bow yet.....

KM proves again for us all that these bows are fine shooters.....now go shoot somethin'  

[sticksnstones]

250 pages of Hill talk? I guess I've got my first book to read on the subject now that mine has arrived in the mail      

Big Five 70" 50#@28" (drawing it 31")

That fella has got "THE DEAD EYE".  That is some mighty fine shooting there.  PUT SOME PENNIES BACK TO STOCKPILE NOCKS FOR YOUR ARROWS!

What about the pics Bro ?

[sticksnstones]

Sorry, too busy shooting to take any pics tonight! Shot two hours before I started to feel a buzz in my string fingers. No shock to my bow hand, but I still want to try a few heavier spined arrows with it next time.
