Oh my goodness, I didn't know about his mom. Steve is a first rate fellow, and as I am not male, I cannot know what he is going through in the loss of his mother and moving south.

Please be patient with him, and if it is absolutely necessary, I will lend you any of my bows that I have bought from him, about 46 @ 26".

I have a Whisper and a Shelton. I have sold my Classic.

Killy,
You are first class my friend, all the way!

No worries with Steve. Something fell through the cracks with this move. Give him a call. When you get your bow the wait will have been worth it.

I just spoke with Steve this morning....everything is fine, he is putting together his new shop after his move from Michigan's UP to Alabama.

I received a bow from him about a month ago for my daughter, and my sons Christmas bow is on the way.

I do know that Steve has been on the computer much less lately, because he has been pretty busy moving and setting up his shop.

There are very few people I trust as much as Steve, I am absolutely certain that your order is secure.

I urge you t call him if you are worried, 906-458-5035

Steves a first rate guy cranking out first rate bows. I know he had a tough year. I also know he wouldn't send out a bow unless it is to his high standards. I'm on his list also but I would rather wait longer than get a thrown together bow.

Steve is a guy I would want in the trench fighting next to me if it ever came to that. That's a short list.

Does anybody know......is Steve out of town hunting or something???

Talk to Steve a couple days ago. He has not had very good internet service. Don't know if he is getting that fixed now or not. Give him a call. He is in the shop from about 8:00 to 5:00 every day. Chad

Been calling for a month and leaving messages, with no reply!

Bowitis · December 19, 2015, 10:47:00 AM

I need to agree with Ron, a little communication would go a long way.

BHall · December 19, 2015, 11:04:00 AM

Hey guys I just heard from Steve. He asked that I post his cell phone on this thread. He also does texts.

ron w · December 19, 2015, 11:26:00 AM

That's the same phone number I have been calling for a month........leaving messages with no response!

ron w · December 21, 2015, 02:36:00 PM

Finally got thru to Steve.......

Ray Lyon · December 21, 2015, 03:10:00 PM

I knew it would happen. I hope he doesn't melt in all that southern heat.

ron w · December 21, 2015, 08:12:00 PM

At least not before he finishes my bow.

Roger Norris · December 21, 2015, 09:00:00 PM

I received my son's Christmas/Graduation bow this afternoon from Steve. Possibly the most beautiful bow he has built for my family (and that's a bunch). I will post pics after Christmas.

Please remember...in the last 45 days he has:

a) located a place in Alabama for his new shop (imagine the travel involved here)
b)dismantled his shop in the UP.
c) driven the whole shebang cross country.
d) reassembled his shop in Alabama.

Theres more, but you get the point. Steve is the best bowyer I have ever met, and one of the most honest and conscientious men I know. He is busy as heck getting things organized in his new digs, building bows, etc. As with most craftsmen that make a living with their hands, he is NOT sitting at a desk worrying over the phone and computer. He is on his shop floor, building bows. We all get spoiled with the 24/7 customer service from places like LL Bean and Cabelas.

Lets show Steve a little respect and patience. He's one of us. If you ordered a bow, it will come.

I hope Steve comes to Baltimore again this year. I always enjoy talking Hill bows and history with him.

Scott E. Thomas · December 23, 2015, 03:57:00 PM

I talked to Steve back in October and he said Baltimore was in his plans. I sure hope so. It is the only time I get to see him since he gave up coming to Denton Hill. God bless, Scott.

STICKBENDER98 · December 23, 2015, 04:11:00 PM

I was wondering the same thing about the show coming up in Kalamazoo, I hope he can make the trip north.

Scott E. Thomas · December 24, 2015, 11:57:00 PM

I would be surprised if Steve did not make Kalamazoo. He sells more bows there than at any other shoot. I'll bet the reason some people are having a hard time contacting him is because he is busy building up his inventory for Kalamazoo.

I was out shooting my classic today. Hand shock is about as mild as any recurve I've shot.
