Sorry I don't have any pictures.  But I shoot a Bear's Paw (short) Longbow........58".  
Niel is one bowyer that combines pure beauty with one of the finest shooting bows that I have had the pleasure to shoot.  
Got another one on the way!

I don't have one but I have shot them and I know several people who use them exclusively and use to own Schafer's and Robertsons.  Based on my limited experience with them they are good bows.  Joseph

I have three of Neils bows, Take down longbow, Takedown classic recurve, and a one piece swift. All of them are a work of craftsmenship. They shoot very smooth and cast well.

Had one years ago. It was a TD recurve. It was a looker and a shooter. Would like to have another someday.

Very nice bows and shoot with the best . One thing I like about Neil is that hes a hard core bowhunter that really puts his bows to the test so he knows how to build them with the hunter in mind.
