Rich Wormington is the bowyer/owner of Yellowstone Bows in WY. The bow is pictured with the 54#@28" limbs and I have another set that is 57#@28". Both sets make for a 62" bow and he also offers a 60" bow. The riser is gray actionwood and the limbs have elm cores with cherry veneers stained light gray. Anyone that knows me knows I have owned a bunch of bows and this bow is as well made and finished as any I have owned. I researched, via the 'net, looking for info on 3 pc. longbows that still had the longbow "look". I also talked to several other bowyers that didn't have what I wanted (the"look") as to what bowyer they would recommend and after contacting over a dozen bowyers, Rich Wormington is one name that they all mentioned. My bow is his baseline model and he offers many options! Great bow, fine and courteous gentleman and I am well pleased! Mike

Mike, I have 2 of Rich's longbows and rave about them. The workmanship is tops. Everone who sees them is impressed and asks who made them. Not many people know of Rich YET.

I noticed something wrong with it, best send it back to him, because it's backwards. The shelf is on the wrong side  :)

Nighthawk-this bow looks fine to me, but I do notice that alot of the bows on here seem to be backwards! Thanks for the kind comments fellars! I plan to spend quite a bit of time with this bow. Hopefully I will have a chance to take a deer with it yet this season. Mike

Fine looking bow Mike. I've heard a number of good things about those bows but I've yet to shoot or even see one. Does he have a web-site?Say, my friend Roy is still shooting that lefty Dale Stahl we got from you a couple of years ago. He's proud as a peacock of that bow.
