Hello folks! Manfred Kaufmann of Graz, Austria, is the bowyer, he runs "Styrian Archery" an archery shop. I'm shooting Hill style longbows, made by John Schulz, Craig Ekin, Nate Steen, Pete George....I shot the Hill bow for 20 years and did a lot of research on old Hill bows. I wanted an Austrian bowyer to craft also that straight and nice bows over here. I discussed that with Craig Ekin and more Hill-folks, Manfred Kaufmann buys some bow building stuff from Howard Hill Archery, and we also reproduced the old Howard Hill Archery sewn quiver model. So, "LegendStick Equipment" is the brand, and "Styrian Archery" is the shop, the company. I advised Manfred to make proper and very slim Hill style bows. He also does a special tempering of the bamboo and we use just Tonkin bamboo. On the Styrian Archery website, we will also offer one of Craig Ekins models, and one of Steve Turays - so we want to support the Howard Hill bow afficinonados over here and also overseas. I always try to connect Hill folks and keep that bow type alive...
