Title: Montana Custom Arrow builders
Post by: mtnbike on May 25, 2014, 10:11:00 AM
Looking for arrow builders that are in Montana. My Dad is looking for custom arrows and I was telling him about some of the ones Ive seen on here, namely a gentleman's from the Kalispell area. For the life of me cannot remember who he is.

If by chance this isn't the place you are looking for, call Neil Jacobson, at Bear's Paw bows, he lives in that area and knows a guy that just builds arrows, I believe that may be the one you are looking for. Sorry that I am short memoried on who it is.
Thanks,

I think Bob is at Whispering Wind Arrows. There are several around Montana. You could google them. And, from what I have seen, they all do top quality work.

Yes, call Rod at Mountain Top. I think he knows and makes arrows for Dan Toelke. Dan told me about him when I got a Whip LB couple years ago.  Rod does wood, aluminum, carbon and raw materials/supplies according to his business card.

Rod Kelley...  I don't know any other arrow makers in Kalispell.

Lewistown, you've got Ryan Benes, he was making all the woodies for Tradout for a while.

Of course, if you want carbon arrows dipped and crested, there's Pete Weatherford in Clark Fork Idaho as well.

Bob is in Hamilton. Try  www.whisperarro.com (http://www.whisperarro.com)   I just tried it it worked for me.
Bob builds great arrows & he uses the Split Hex Shaft that is so tough.
