Anyone have a Whisp or Mariah recurve that they could post some photos of?  Thanks.

Mike is also working on another design for really long draw lengths.  The bow above looks like Brettos bow he has for sale.

I know he is working on another longbow, haven't heard about another recurve.

I plan to call Mike latter next week but don't want to bother him right now.  He lost his dad a few days ago and he needs his time.  I keep hearing about his bows but have never seen one.  I am shopping for a 50's style recurve.

Sorry to hear about his Dad.  Will keep him in our prayers.

I remember when I was in his shop visiting him in OCT he was putting something together.  I had the chance to draw it back and check it out.  Cant remember too much about it.  Maybe a longbow with his recurve handle.  Thats when I ordered my Kestrel.

Oh man, I didn't hear that(so sorry). Mike makes great bows. He and I have been discussing a Mariah.
Great guy to talk to.
Mike, you're in my family's prayers.

I've held a few of his bows at our banquets and they are very well made and light. Mike is a great guy and will take time to discuss whatever you need.

Got this as a wedding gift this year and love it. I have 2 of his bows and so does my Dad. They are great lookers and shooters and Mike is a great guy to deal with.

Thanks Caley.  Is your bow the Wisp or Mariah? Thanks, Brian.
