Several important stages in building the stave, and careful training to bend ensure these laminated longbows are a good combination of speed and shootability.
Custom made triple laminate longbows
My bows are made to suit the archer's drawlength and shooting style, whether you are a target, field or flight archer -or all three.
You can enjoy most styles of competition with a longbow!
Pictured are longbows just before final test shooting and polishing, all bows are tested through a chronograph.
