Anybody know where I can get one of these bows Sheepeater Spirit Static Recurve?

I have only seen one for sale in person, it was used and I got it from the Nocking Point when he was set up at the three trails archery club's shoot. He said he got it from a fella in Houston. He didn't specify if it was tx or mo but I'll bet it was Houston MO.
Mine is 36 lbs at 28 inches. I had to do some filing on the nocks as the string had a tendency to slip off when stringing it up. Now it stays put and is a nice shooting bow.
I think there was another one for sale on the Stickbow classified last year. I'm thinking it was in the mid 50s draw weight.
I called Mike Westvang at Dryad Bows, he said they made them for a while but don't any more. I recall him saying they don't even have the forms anymore.
That's about all I can tell you about them.

Well, you made a great looking bow, really captures the lines of the Sheepeater Spirit bow I have.
Posting a picture is beyond my minimal computer skills. And taking a picture, well, I'd need figure out my new fangled smarter phone first.
Again, that is a great looking bow you made. My hats off to you.
