After bout 2 hrs of clean up around the place with my vintage Allis Chalmers, I thought Id knock the dust of some of my old Hill styles that have been hanging for a while.
After a bit of shooting I thought ,why not take a picture of some old work horses, all in one pic.
Seems that old and simple are a way of life around my place........and that suits me just fine.    :bigsmyl:   [/url] [/IMG]   [/URL[/IMG]   [/URL[/IMG]

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

Paul,
Great pic bud but you need to give us the run down on the bow models from left to right!!!  :)

Brian ill start from left to right, An all Osage Jim Bo, Silver Hawk, Hill Panther , N.M Classic, Tembo, Big Five and Half Breed.
The Panther is the young pup in the bunch, the others are from the 80's or for some maybe a bit earlier as best I can tell.
I may be a bit off on some of the ages but im fairly close.
Not quite as old as the old A.C, but classic work horses none the less.    :campfire:

The family 9n is enjoying its third or fourth renaissance.  Four generations have enjoyed its steady thumb and bumpy ride.  And because of Green I am now looking for a Hill bow.  I can't wait.  Nice ride and awesome collection.

Sweet I love both old tractors and bows, I'm going to take some pics of my favorite John Deere two cylinder and my favorite bow. I like the simple life myself.

Great Idea Paul, Here are some pics of my two Wesley specials in front of my tractor  

     

My tractor is a 1948 IH Farmall model C, first yr they built them. The Authentic log cabin was built from red oak logs off the farm for which I still own 75 acres of. The cabin was built in 1946 and 47 for my grandmother by my grandfather who was the last one to farm this land. I am the 6th generation to own it. The Wesleys are not as old, but workhorses like the tractor. This is my home as well as my hunting cabin.

Was raised on an old 8N Bill....and two old Allis Chalmers B's.

Nice collection of bows Moleman....great pic.

I'm surprised nobody's posted a pic shooting one of your HH's off your tractor.....course, it's a little dangerous on the tricycle variety.     :laughing:

I love old tractors too, have a not so old ford and a not so old liberty longbow. Funny my buddy told me there was some porn I would be interested in seeing today and to guess what thread it was. I am picking this one. Nice pics guys.
