Hey guys! I answered 16 responses to this post tonight. Thanks for your feedback and support. As I see it, we should be looking out or one another and sharing concerns without publically discrediting anyone. To those who sent me P.M.'s I will do my best to keep you aprised of a situation which affects more of us than I imagined. thanks again!

I have no idea if there are any problems or delays.  Always liked their bows, but have had no contact with them.  I think I did see something recently about them moving into a new shop.  If that is the case it could certainly explain why someone might have a hard time reaching them right now.

Not the case Joe. Sent you a P.M.

A few months ago I got my daughter a GREAT and inexpensive bow from them.  They mentioned about a 12 week wait from the day I ordered and it took about 17 weeks.  It was no big deal to me or my daughter.  Nice bow and I would highly recommend them.

Stuff happens and I'm sure you will get your bow and be very happy with it.

I've been waiting on a bow from another well known bower for a year and a half.  Some of the wait was my fault, most of it not.  The wait now is because of an outside vender that isn't getting my bowyer an item.  The good thing is he is keeping me well informed.

That's the main problem I see with venders.  When  delays happen, they duck the customer instead of explaining what's going on.

Best of luck.

Thanks for your comments Curtis but what you are talking about simply isn't the case here. I have responded to nearly twenty-five P.M.'s to this post. Believe me, I have an infinite amount of patience and do understand delays that come up. We have a bigger issue here which apparently effect many of us who recently placed orders. I will not discuss the specific issues on this forum .. And quite frankly, I'm just too tired to rehash it in another P.M right now!

Flatshooter,

Sorry to hear you have had some problems with Ancient Spirits.  They built a Thunderhawk for me a couple years ago that is one of my most cherished possessions.  JD and Tracy were a pure pleasure to deal with, especially after I got it because I had tons of questions.  I live within an hour or so of them and I would just drop in and bother them.  They were always great.

After seeing this thread, I checked their website to see if they had a message up and I did notice that Tracy's name is not up at the top of the page next to "Master Bowyer" with JD's.  It used to be there.  Don't know what this means, if anything, but I sure do hope something hasn't happened to keep these great bows from being built anymore.  I've got a son on the way who will be needing one in a few years!

Good luck and I hope everything works out well for you.
