I have a N Mist Classic getting a little weight reduced at Steve's now can't wait to shoot it.

Reading this thread keeps the ASL itch going.  Scratched it a little with a NewWood Stringfollow.  Full report on the Product Review page.  

My new Reverse handle McBroom is on a post on Pow-Wow........I thought more folks would see it over there........some guys just don't read this thread. It's a heck of a nice bow.

Just finished up an ASL. "Wild Bill", his hockey name.  Red Gum over cherry and Che Chen riser. My buddy Eric turned me on to that red gum.

Lots of nice new lumber, guys.  Congrats!

counting the days until I get my N Mist Classic home!

Waldrop seat, American Leathers glove, ASL with nice broken in quiver. That's all I ever need. Nice photo Green.

That's great Rob!

Thanks All.....simple is my preferred style.

TxAg......your new bow show up yet?

BTW......lots of nice new lumber exhibited in these pages of late.  Congrats y'all!

^^^ it arrived just a couple days after our new baby...so I haven't had much time to shoot or take pics. Mostly, I just drool over it and then get back to diaper duty  

Congratulations Jeff!

Belt Buckles....??? If so, real nice!!  

I would love to get my hands on a Sunset Hill. RC

I'm with RC.....and a whole lot of others.  An SH is definitely on the short list.

Anyone have one of the new belcher archery American longbows?

Ever wonder why Hill bows seem quieter to game animals?

Did you know that deer are better at hearing high frequency sounds, but not as good as humans at hearing lower frequency sounds?

Did you know higher frequent sounds are more directional in nature than lower frequency sounds?

Wouldn't it make sense that a longbow with thicker longer string have lower frequency sounds than a short bow with skinny low stretch string?

Could it be possible that a Hill style bow is even quieter to game animals than it is to us?


If you want to see the charts and what I wrote about this all check out my blog when you get a chance....

It is just too much work to copy the entire deal and photos here...


Enjoy.
