Here’s mine. 62”, 38# @ 28”. Was shooting for 40# @ 30”.
Cocobolo and satinwood riser, bamboo cores, curly Birdseye maple limb veneers.
Mike sure makes a fine bow.

Ditto what Chad said above, the fact that he makes an awesome bow is just the icing on the cake!  I really enjoy talking to Mike and consider him one of the best bowyers that many people have never heard of.  His bows are among the top in the industry for overall value...in my opinion.  

If Mike had a website, he'd definitely have to hire some employees!  A year waiting list with no website is pretty impressive in my book and it has been that way for a long time.
Take care,
Jason

After shooting mine for a couple weeks, I called him and got back on his list. C’mon March ‘18!

64” Black Forest. Cocobolo riser, not set on limbs yet. After seeing the spalted mango veneers posted recently, I may try to locate some of those. The maple is hard to beat though!

I was lucky enough to "steal" a 54" TD LH Black Forest longbow off the classifieds about 10 years back. Shot my best tournament scores with heavy hunting arrows against much longer bows with lightweight arrows. This tournament was a 3 shoot aggregate, consisting of 2 3D shoots and one field archery shoot. One shoot each is in December, January and February. No matter ,rain or shine, snow or ice.
Mike is a very nice guy to talk to and a man of integrity. Normally see him at the Kentucky Trad Fest.
