You need to add a Hill style bow to that rack!

Of course then you may not be able to get he whole bow in the photo either.  :biglaugh:

Yes Greg, as much as I loved those Howard Hill books growing up I should be the biggest Hill fan out there! Yet I do not own one? I will have to remedy that....

Here's mine in the new house. Not so much on display in the workshop but just stored. And Greg I do have a Hill style bow hiding on that rack, an old Ben Pearson lemonwood longbow similar to my first bow in 1955.

They have their own bed for now, I have 2 racks that my dad built me but I'm going to have to do some re arranging to hang them on the wall.

I recently try to find a good way to use the bunch of warthog tusks I got over the years. I still have enough for 2 more racks
