I picked one up at Tannehill this past weekend and am having a tough time finding anything out about them. It looks good and is a shooter.
Who makes them?
How are they cut to center?
Recommended brace height?
Any info on them at all would be appreciated. Thanks.
I owned a 62" RD crooked stic, great shooting bow as fine a bow as any I've owned. Do a search crooked stic post from time to time.
Made by Mike Miller of Princeton In. Never shot one but Mike has an excellent reputation. He is a member here you can probably message him. Might look over on the bowyers bench.
My Crooked Stic longbow.
Stable, quiet&fast. Fairly-priced, as well. (//%5Burl=http://imgur.com/J4iIpUl%5D%20%5Bimg%5Dhttp://i.imgur.com/J4iIpUl.jpg)[/url] [/IMG]

I got mine unfinished from Lynn Harrison. I did a little sanding, and true oiled that puppy and MAN that sucker s a fine bow!
Its a shooter too!
Mike attends our KTBA (Kentucky Traditional Bowhunters) shoots in Mercer County KY. I shot one of his bows at our last shoot and liked it. He will probably be at the "Tradfest" the first weekend of April.
Beautiful piece of wood there Achilles!
Unfortunately I don't own or have never even shot a Crooked Stick bow. I do know Mike is a stand up guy and bet he builds a great bow. I have been in several bow swaps and always hoped to be drawn by Mike but, no such luck.
Another member brought this thread to my attention.Anything you guys need to know just PM me.
I have had Mike make two 3pc. take downs for me. Both 62". Best brace for me on both bows was right at seven and a half. Excellent performance on both and Mike is a great guy to do business with.
Jess I was lucky enough to do a one on one swap with Mike. He gave me the choice tween his models and I chose his one piece shorty longbow. Osage with an ipe I beam, red accents and a aboo core. Very nice bow. Shoots hard and is dead in hand. Ill try to post a pic later.

I've never heard anything but good about Mike or his bows. Everyone I know that has one really likes it.
God bless, Steve
I shot a one piece crooked stick longbow at the spring fling in Alabama. I must say,it was a very fine looking bow that shot awesome.
I had one for a bit, nice bow, the wife shot it for a while also. Great shooter and nice fit and finish.
