Black Canyon longbows
« on: September 14, 2008, 05:53:00 PM »
Anyone have any pics of a Black Canyon longbow? I believe they're made by Mike Hays. Thanks

oh fred,  tsk-tsk-tsk......

great minds think alike. i've also had a longing to try a black canyon. heard great things about them. mike hays does make them and i believe connie renfro (from TBM) and her husband shoot them. i think he does a T/D and a 1 pc

p.s.   we are due for a shooting session!!

I just spoke to Mike last week about making up a one piece for me--here in Colorado, there's quite a following and there are at least 5 or 6 every Monday night for our league.  I'll take a few pics for you and post them when I can.  

Are you more interested in pics of a 1pc or takedown?

You can find Mike's contact info on pg 4 of the CTAS newsletter at the link below.  I know a lot of people that like his bows.  I have yet to shoot one.  They look nice.
