I figured I post this for those of you folks that didn't hear yet. Al Reader passed away May 31st.There was a nice article in the local paper his morning about him. For those of you who new Al we were never short of amazed at his collection and knowledge of BEAR Archery bows. I met Al when I sold him an old BEAR static Limb recurve years ago. It fueled my interest to return to the Trad Way. I understand he was at The Spring Whittingham Shoot but was very sick.He takes a lot of knowledge with him to a better place.
