If you are talking about Heritage Bows, by Rocky Miller, I just traded one to Mark Baker of Classic Bowhunting. It was way too heavy for me nowadays. Anyhow, it shot very hard and fast. Rocky made some good bows.

Bihunter,

I have one of his bamboo backed, all natural bows. You will not find a better finished bow. I visited with him last year. This fellow knows what he is doing. His attention to detail and the way he goes about his business tell you he is top notch. I am planning another visit in a week or so (he lives about 3 hours from me)to order another bow. This time I am going for his Old Tom model. Hopefully he can use a piece of black walnut (for riser) that I am taking to him from a tree in my yard that fell victim of a wind storm. You can not go wrong with any of his bows. He makes them the way John made them which is the way Howard taught John.

God bless,

Jose

bihunnter, I have been to David's a few times and shot his bows. Both the all wood models and his laminated models. As Jose says they are an awesome bow in the Schulz tradition. He is a perfectionist when it comes to his fit and finish and all other aspects of bow building. He builds them just as John Schulz taught  him. I am saving up for one presently. Hope this helps.
