Hill Style Longbow by Great Plains - Review 

I’ve shot American style recurves for 35+ years. My first longbow was a Great Plains Traditional(2 years ago). It runs with the better recurves easily(ilf style). The ASL they make will probably be my next Great Plains.

I can hear Peter's voice like:"I TOLD YOU!!!" Hope to hear from you both together something again. Thanks vor the video

Now ! I can rest Enjoy the weekend Armin 😊

I'm happy with my af longbow I purchased after your review. This one seems nice but I can't justify the expense. 👍🎯

Nice review !Please more Great Plains bows!

Those are beautiful bows!!!

MR. HIRMIR, thanks for your extensive work of all these bows. It really helps people to understand more , before making their first purchase, or a specific bow for specific qualities. You introduced me to Asiatic style bows, and their benefits. Thanks from the USA and hope you a great future.

I like the bow. I might have to purchase one. Thank you 😊🏹🎯

Looks like a really nice bow, but it seems kind of slow for the money, I like the little short bows and thumb draw, and the fact that they shoot really fast, thank you for another great review

Great Plains makes a few "Hill Style" bows. Each with slight variation.

I love my Falco Storm 50lb Cant seem to miss much. Pull back let go. H.Hill and Greyarcher.

I have a Youth Longbow in hickory for left eye dominate thing from This same company, Yet to use but the bow is just a tick over 45 pounds at my draw of 24.5--25 inches. It is not the True Howard Hill/Flat limb style but a reflex deflex that the reflex limb looks like a straight bow when strung type ASL at 52 inches. I feel almost like I have a modern take on the Plains Native bows when I have the bow drawn. I got it in 2022 right on my birthday on December 20th, was supposed to be a week earlier but a snow storm stopped the bow from coming. I do like they were one of the few who made a short draw bow for my needs that is not the price of a bigger bow, or possibly more for such a request, with some companies saying they can offer most adult models at a 26 inch draw. I do not want to have to do some asking on how off the bow weight is from each inch lower then X draw the bow is made for, I just want to use the bow and have it at my draw or very close to my hunting draw.

I have a few centre shot bows, and they seem to be easier to shoot accurately than my 'non' centre shot bows... but non- centre shot bows are much more satisfying (challenging) to shoot accurately. That being said i wouldn't mind one of these in my bow rack... (i do like smoothness of a longbow). My favourite (at the moment) bow is a 'Tang' style #40, @ 28 laminate... 58" long, 32" max draw. Closely followed by a #40@"28, 60" long, 30" draw centre shot bow... so similar in specs... but totally different to shoot.

looking on your face, we know which works easier ! the Howard Hill model and copies are an enigma but excepting the lighter arrows few differences between GP and Fairbows anyway, Great plains have an excellent reputation with lighter, comfortable and precise modern models (reflex deflex, with carbon, ...) for competition, like Toelke bows !

So basically for 300 dollars more you get a premium, refined version of Bear Montana.

Very nice Review, But seems that t he BOWMAN is pretty equal.

I have a old RioBravo (6000serialnr.)3pice the smoothest bow i ever shoot,

Herrlich wenn Österreicher Englisch sprechen, ich dachte erst Gerhard Berger rauszuhören, klingt wahnsinnig ähnlich, zumindest für mich als Norddeutscher🙈 Danke für das Video, genial👍

The bow looks soo beautiful. Armin sir I have a question, what is the ideal height ot a Long bow? Some say 65" and some have said 71". Is there a standard height or depends on person to person.

Hello,...I have a 32-pound, 67-inch hybrid longbow...what wooden arrow do you recommend? ,...diameter and weight?....thank you!

Meh, for 150.00 I would rather have the Sanlida Royal X8 longbow even if it isnt a true Hill style bow. From what Iv’e seen from your review on that it gets the job done and more. The Hill bows are all overpriced for what your really getting. At this price level I would rather have a royal huntsman longbow from Omega Bow Co. Great Plains is really high for all their products. Great review though thanks alot.

I shot a Hill Longbow for over 30 years and wasn't impressed. It "seemed" to be much slower and loads of hand shock so I've gone to an eastern recurve, much faster.

Just go to Basically Bows and get a real long bow

How good was Hill really? He was way before my time, but I've looked at some footage of him on youtube, and it was clearly faked. Was he actually good or just hyped up by the movies?

no anchor?

Those are quiet!!

Ñot hill style

Hai armin I am from india wonderful bow.
