I saw Rick about a year ago.  He looked good and said he might be getting more involved in NY Bowhunters again.

Just this weekend, I was shooting one of his bows at the JLMBH.  I had one of his flatbows there with me, another gentleman had one of his longbows.

As far as I know, he still lives in Petersburgh.  His kids must be gettting big now.

I carried his bows in my shop for years, my best sellers. He built the best shooting longbow I ever shot and we settled on a yew and bamboo combo and he called it the Renaissance Longbow.
He sort of dropped out after his loss and the numbers I got are no good no more.
If you or anyone know how I could call and say hello let me know

I'll see if I can dig up his number for you.  I'll PM it to you if I can find it.

MY first custom longbow was made by Rick,very talented fellow.He gave a bow building class a number of years ago at my Archery/ Hunting shop and I even had one on one class with him on final steps finishing my 1st selfbow years back that I arrowed a Bear & Whitetail with.

I would like to have current tel # if anyone has it.

                  Thanks

No Sage just got off the phone with him. It was like old home week for me, he and I spoke a lot for years and hunted and did buisness together and I felt like it was just yesterday, still sounds the same, thanks for the number, I told him about the site and he says he will check it out.
