Sorry to hear that Bob.  I know you put a lot into that company, and it had an excellent reputation when you sold it.

Bob had created one of the best bow making companies, so sad if it’s gone South

All I know is that you built some of the finest bows available. I am sorry that might have changed....hopefully not.

I agree.  Maybe don’t jump the gun on the company going south.  The address on the website is deep in Western North Carolina, and it’s only a 1/4 mile from the Tuckasegee river, according to google earth.  Who knows if those people have cell or internet service down there.

Hope all is well with the company and the owners , parts of NC really got messed up. One of the first customs I got was a Morrison TD recurve. I sold it years ago, still miss it.

Been shooting an old Shawnee recurve around the yard some,great shooting bow and really easy to look at.Been shooting long bows exclusively since 1999.Shot my longbow a few weeks back and shoulder hurt so bad I hated to move my arm the next day.Looked at the Morrison on the bow rack and took it out to shoot after some pain was gone.Amazing how much difference 6 pounds of draw weight makes,and how enjoyable it is to shoot without pain.Hope to get a pic here with me and a dead deer with the recurve soon.

It is sad cause once Bob sold it Morrison Archery basically fell off the planet here.  Bob was very involved in Tradgang and had a great following. I bought at least four bows from him and all of them provided me with lots of memories. Two long bows and two recurves are in a several really good hero pics.

I just picked up in a trade a used Morrison TD recurve, super great grip, stable bow, accurate as can be, quiet, no shock and very pleasing to the eye with great skins on the limbs. Bob is certainly missed !!!!

Yup, Great bows they were.  I would love to find one of his original Longbows that is Lefthanded.  But ya just don't see them for sale.
