Look into Tollgate archery traditions online...they may have a bowyer or two who supply them from the upstate area

Yes, Ed Mikuta is an excellent Boyer in upstate NY. I have one of his TD recurves and a custom made RD longbow. Love them both.

I believe Jason Fedora is spending a lot of time in upstate now as well.

define "upstate"...... but seeing you are from Greene, then you may have  it right...lol.

Can't believe nobody has listed:

Gerry Fiegel (Northwind Archery) in the Buffalo area....Northwind Traditional Archery 3351 Tonawanda Creek Rd. Amherst, NY 14228 716-689-3701

B.T.W. - I used to hunt a wonderful chunk of land in Greene years ago.  Boy I miss that place.

"Upstate" = 2 hours north of Queens.
Less going West.  :)

Leon is a great guy and bowyer. If you happen down this way give me a hollar. Leon is about ten minutes from my house. Thanks Ed

Thanks all.  If there's more, keep them coming.

Big Ed- After seeing Cade's bow, I think maybe you should add yourself to the list!

Planning on making the trip to Denton this year Tom.  Is it worth it to burn a couple vacation days to get there on Thursday?
