HOME

As our name implies we specialize in longbows. Our philosophy is to produce a custom traditional bow that is rugged and dependable, at a very reasonable price.

For the traditional archer, whether bowhunting or target shooting we offer a bow which is functional and accurate. It will perform reliably in all conditions, and stand up to extremes of climate and handling.

"...it is pleasant to hunt something that you want very much over a long period of time, being outwitted, out maneuvered, and failing at the end of each day, but having the hunt, and knowing that every time you are out that, sooner or later, your luck will change and you will get the chance you are seeking."  Ernest Hemingway

Our Bows

Classic Longbow - As a weapon the classic longbow is a study in simplicity. Long straight limbs and a simple riser bend to a graceful D shape when braced.

Three Shilling Longbow - Similar in simplicity of form to the classic longbow except that the limbs are reflexed slightly away from the shooter.

Mark One Longbow - Carbon fiber and bamboo limb construction and a compact riser result in a very fast, flat cast, with a total weight of just over one pound.
