Title: 2 pc. longbow makers?
Post by: eflanders on December 04, 2012, 08:39:00 PM
For the life of me I can't remember who is still building 2 pc. R/D longbows in either the carbon / glass sleeve or the bow bolt.  Can you folks kindly help remind me?

A&H Archery-carbon sleeve. Pretty sure Big Jim does the carbon sleeve too.

J.k Chastain makes several great 2 piece longbows.
Though hes not always front page in advertising, his bows are second to none.

I did remember Big Jim, but I didn't see any options for custom bows on his website anymore...  I thought I had heard that the Shrews weren't being made anymore but that his bowyer was going out on his own.  I am pretty sure that Abe Penner is still doing the Cari-bow.

Mike at Maddog has made a few for me and is making another for me now.

I am still offering customs. Don't think anything has changed about the website as far as customs go. I'll have to take a look.

thanks,bigjim
