HH BUG GOT ME - Part Two!

[Green]

I have this feeling that order will be placed, and yes, Craig gets them in your hands quickly.  Gonna be a long couple of months on your order....but at least it's hunting season!

[Brianlocal3]

Well I think this is my hunting set up for the year if I even get a chance to get out

I was out in the yard this evening shooting at leaves, when my son Jake came by for supper.

Jake only shoots one of my bows occationally, and has never shot one of my longbows.

I had him sling up the back quiver, and gave him my Misty Dawn. He knew how to do the quiver bump, and drawing the arrow by the nock, since he filmed my recent video.

Anyway, he started shooting at leaves. You'd have thought he had been shooting all the time with the way he was laying them in there!

 

Maybe I'll have a shooting partner after all!

Akbowbender, Told Pluto no moose meat, pretty sure hes got a different out look on the muley around here now...James

That's a nice looking set up Brian. I shot my first trad buck with a VPA 175 - very impressive head!

[Brianlocal3]

Rossco,
I am finding that they just always fly well no matter the release or wind. I'm happy with them.
And thanks

Have to "fess" up -- been on James Berry's list for two bows for a month or so.  One standard handle and one reverse handle.  Devil made me do it -- to say nothing of James' skill and quality.

Beautiful bow Brian.

Arne have heard nothing but praise on his reverse handle bow. I think you'll be happy!

[canopyboy]

One of these days I'm gonna get me a shot at something bigger.  (And maybe a new camera phone with out a blurred lens...)

[canopyboy]

Oh, and there's an all natural Miller on order now too.

[magnus]

Nice shooting David ! Squirrels ain't easy but sure are fun!

[Rossco7002]

@ Brian - I agree. VPAs fly awesome for me too - I've switched to grizzlies on cedars this season and they're the only other head that delivers the same level of forgiveness and durability.

@David - which Miller are you going for buddy?

[Brianlocal3]

Glad to hear your on the list Arne. It's no secret that I love em!!

[Green]

Congrats on your upcoming bows Arne!  I'm looking forward to your opinions of the Morning Star.  What draw weight range did you order?

[MikeNova]

Brian James bows are made to be shot not just looked at go hunting!

[canopyboy]

That squirrel thinks VPAs work just fine.  

@ Rossco - The split bamboo.  Talked to Dave at length about that vs. the Concave/Convex Hawk.  He basically talked me out of the Hawk.

[moebow]

I'm looking forward to getting the bows.  I ordered both to be "brothers" (relative look a likes). They will be coco bolo riser, white glass and bamboo limbs.  Both 43# at 30".  I ordered them primarily for my "training equipment" inventory.  I work with many that want to try a Hill style but all my bows are 50# or higher -- not a good bow weight for beginners trying them out.

Fully 90% of my personal shooting these days are "demo" shots for students usually done at an indoor 20 yards range so these should fill the bill nicely.  Will let you all know what I think but can't imagine that a Berry bow will be anything BUT absolutely perfect.

[Rossco7002]

Very cool buddy!

Dave has told me that he feels the split bamboo is the sweetest shooting bow he makes. I really agonized over a choice between the Hawk or the Expedition - must have changed my mind 20 times while I waited form my spot on the list to come up! Lol

What sold you on the split bamboo?

My next Miller is likely to be an all natural bamboo and yew - I love how they look!

[Moots]

I wouldn't sell my fiberglass longbows, but I bought a bamboo and wood (no glass) Saluki from Knapper that is very nice.
