I am very interested in this man. He was truely one of a kind. I was woundering if any one has writen a book about him or made any kind of movie about him. Mike
I believe Bob Windauer is working on a book at this time. Bob is Dave's father. Dave (obviously) took over Schafer Silvertip business after Paul's death.
Doubt there will ever be a movie, but you can get some outstanding (and rare) pics on brothers of the bow website.

Good forum on Paul on this site. Scroll down below Powwow and you'll come to it.
Yeah I read all of those a couple months ago and it really got me interested in him. Then my boss at work got to telling me storys that he had read and heard . I really didnt mean movie (sorry) I ment documentary or something like that . Thanks guys Mike
I talked with Paul Brunner years ago, he said Schaf was not a guy to get in a bar room brawl with. One tough SOB!
yeah I heard that to, what gets me is he wasn't some giant, 5 10" 190 205lbs thats a man, but not all that big and some of the stuff I've heard of him doing is crazy.
Forum on here is really good.
A few years a go I read a article about Paul Schafer and his friend Bart Schyler( not sure about the spelling) in TBM great reading!!!! One of the main inspirations of mine to go trad. I would love to see the book
Read all that has been written by Gene and Barry Wensel, both books and articles. There is alot about Paul in them. I believe that Uncle Barry was very close friends with Paul. Paul is a guy that I wish I could have met one day.
This is a tribute website dedicated to Mr. Schafer. It has many stories written by as many authors.
