Don't know anything about the bowyer, but that's a great looking bow.
Thanks I realize that it's a relative shot in the dark. When I picked it up I had never heard anything about "Burch Archery" so I looked it up on Google mutiple times changing a few of the basic search parameters with no positive results. I have noticed that there is a little glue squeeze out near the outer 1/4 of the uper limb from a spot where the lamination got ground a little too narrow.
From the entire look of the bow I would say that it was made by someone not super experienced in bow making but a very competent wood worker.
The bow itself is very light in the hand it draws consistent and smooth with no stacking. The slight amount of reflex the bowyer put in it really gives it some extra snap with minimal hand shock. I'm glad to call it my new bow.
Long shot but did you try googling the person that the bow was made for?
