Snag My bow from Gary are made from red elm and bambo in the limbs, If you are thinking of ordering one of his from that yew he aquired I,d go for it, If Gary says it the finest yew he has seen, then thats the way it is, If I needed another bow my name would have already been on the list. FERGI

I have two of his bow, the older Competition, and the newer StrikeForce.   Both are hard hitters, and forgiving.    :thumbsup:

I have one on order, do in March....
All I can say is, If your thinking of getting one, "Get it".
  I met the Man in person a few years ago and talked with him, He is one no nonsense type of guy, If he tells ya sumtin believe it....
  You will not be disappointed with one of his bows....

I do not want to highjack this thread, but if anyone has a right hand Elite, 64"/66", 55# or so @ 28" they want to sell please let me know.

A Sentman was my first custom longbow many years ago.I was a good shooter,I have had a few in trades a couple of his Competiton models and a Moosejaw all fine shooting bows.I really enjoyed his articles he used to write in Instinctive Archer and seen a couple of his videos.He makes a solid shooting bow.

Not too long ago Dick Wightman clarified that he thought that he was one of the last recipients of Gary's fine work when he received a new bow from Gary at a shoot at Moses Lake in July 2008.  Since then Gary has retired from bowmaking and relocated.  I also had hoped to shoot a Moosejaw Elite one day and have been on the lookout for one on the secondary market.  Have a great day!
