John Kolometz!  He is a great hunter, yet I have never seen him here.  Any explanations?

I know nothing of him, but have 2 of his bows-excellent shooters.  I've heard that he only used locally available woods in his bows.  I believe he's covered in "Traditional Bowyers of America"

I was just always impressed with all the big bucks that he and Bill Meyer killed near Zanesville.  Always wondered why those guys never showed up on this site.
