HH bug got me ... Part One!

[Tinbow]

Ok guys it is official after reading the first hundred or so pages of this thread and looking at the HH slideshow of bowporn I feel that I've got a fever and the only cure is shooting and obtaining more Hill style bows ! So much so that a local bowyer is currently building me one. I'm currently shooting a Jerry Hill wildcat Deluxe  that is a loaner untill my bow is finished so it kinda keeps the fever in check   :D  ,but I definently know I got the sickness.

Danny, I have been kickin around the Dave Johnson idea since Mudd planted the seed...the rascal!  I'm thinkin you are gonna love that one.


Tinbow, lookin forward to hearing your experience with your new-found passion/addiction.  Show us your new bow when.  Curious as to who your bowyer is....do tell

God bless,Mudd

With a little luck a new longbow will be in my hands at the Texas State Longbow Championships memorial day weekend.  We will see...

I'm hoping to be there also but to watch, check out the venders, and finally shoot some different HH's

OK Jeff, don't just throw that out there without telling us the details. Give us some information that will stick.

Mudd, my friend, I'm not just spreading the infection, I'm also offering up the cure...

  :p

[Mudd]

Touche! Danny.

I really don't mind being taken to the woodshed when it's for my own good....lol

I will say that it's awesome to own and shoot such nice bows.

Mr Johnson has the touch!



God bless,Mudd

Attention Austrailian hunters! I met a bunch of Aussies last they told me Levi jeans and nike shoes cost about $200 over there. So book me a hunt I'll bring a suitcase or two full of Levi's and Nikes and I should be able to pay for it lol!

What's the wait time on a Johnson bow? And (as owners)where do you feel the product fits - truly custom to your specs, draw length etc... or more of a 'standard bow with your chice of woods and draw weights' type affair?

You guys are talking about great new bows, but all I can think about is that the new place I am trying to hunt bears only seems to have small bears. Not that I am looking for a huge bear, but I am hunting for lots of tender, lean, spring bear meat. A small bear just won't do.

Granted, I cannot get into the high country where the big boys live for another week or so when the snow melts a bit more, but dang, why can't a big bear live in the low country?

Well, I will hit it hard this weekend, then think about heading up to the high country to see if I can get in through the snow to one of my honey holes. Until then. . . my bow is craving blood, and getting hungrier by the moment. Here she is 25 yards north east from my bait. Neat rock outcropping, about 100 yards long on a nice, long finger ridge separating two big canyons.
