I have owned 5 over the years (longbow, TD longbow, 2 Kadiaks, and a Hawk), however all of them had to find another home because of their heavy weight and my shoulder problem.  I thought their looks were good, speed was good, price was competitive, and they were accurate.  Randy was also a decent bowyer to deal with.

Good, I whacked two deer in Michigan 5 days apart with a 66" Saxon American LB 55@28. Should have never sold it.

I got an American Traditional Recurve from cabela's years ago. It was to heavy for me then but I wish I still had it. Very nice bows.

I had one of his long bows some years ago. I got it for a real good price. It shot real nice and I had good luck with it and maple shafts on the 3-D course. I traded it as I wanted a more Hill style bow.
I know people who have been at his shop. All say he is a nice person and a pleasure to work with.

My first custom bow was A Saxon Anerican LB.
I still have it, Dano put skins on it and refinished it for me.
    It's a good shooter a fine example od a D style bow.......

I passed up a saxon a number of years ago at a traditional show in Kalamazoo MI.  It was the nicest looking bow I have ever seen.  Randy said he had just finished it for himself, but offered to sell it to me if I wanted.  I was tempted, but ended up getting one of Ron's Shrews instead.  I love my shrew, but I kick myself every so often for passing up that Saxon.  One of these days I'm going to get me one (when the wife let's me:)).
