Title: howard hill bows
Post by: 5 point on May 30, 2007, 10:28:00 PM
I am thinking of getting a HH longbow.  My question is are the limbs completely straight or do they have a little backset like an Martin ML 10?  Thanks

5 Point:
Graig has two forms, one has backset one does not. The amount of backset will depend on the length of the bow. The longer the bow the more backset. To be honest with you I have one of each and see no difference.

5 point, try one first if you haven't. Some guys love them some don't. If you like the ML 10 you will most likely like the Hill. Good luck.
