Today is the anniversary of John C. McDonald's birthday. Big River bows bowyer. May he Rest in Peace.

The first custom bow I got was a recurve from John, 60" 67#@28" Zircote riser, bamboo limb laminations under clear glass. Second was a D/R Longbow 21st Century clone, 65#@27" truly a sweet bow, finally a mild D/R longbow 62" 60#@30" I bought from Don "Ned" Nettleton, now passed. John was a true gentleman as gruff as they come. Last time I talked with him was a year before he passed on his birthday, I'll always cherish that conversation.
