Used to be one in Marion. Ed Barwick-Goes by Ceb on here. He built me a longbow that I made my two best shots with, my shortest and my longest. One was about 28 yards and the other was about 18 inches! I don't know if he is still in business.

But if you ever do it again sometime soon please let me know.
