I have been doing taper improvements in my longbow limbs, allowing for greater mass in the tip section. Thus, greater and flatter cast, a smoother force draw curve, more stability in the limb allowing the use of fast-flight. It breathes new life into a bow, it doesn't stretch, it will outlast Dacron 2 to 1 in longevity. Please use at least twenty strands, for string weight and string diameter. Thank you, Leon Stewart Bill Slusser, a master gunsmith will be custom checkering the grips on longbows and recurves.
Bill handcrafts custom flintlocks full-time.
His workmanship is known throughout the country. If you desire, he will do custom inlays, such as scrolls, flowers, and even hunting scenes on riser sections using sterling silver wire inlayed into the riser. Also, if requested, gold inlayed wire. With more options available and the best people to assist you with your choices in traditional equipment, I know that you will be served even better than you have been in the past.
