I bought a new Crow Creek Blackfeather 3-piece T/D longbow yesterday evening from a bow shop in Little Rock, AR, Mike Boone (Papa) put me onto the shop.

My new Blackfeather is 62", 51#@28", Cocobolo/Bocote riser and Bamboo limbs. It should be shipped today and I'll be shooting it a week from tomorrow!

Wildman - I know that bow. It is absolutely beautiful and a sweet shooter!!! I bought my first trad bow last year from Jerrell at AA and it was a Black Feather. Man, you just can't beat Elmer's bows! The quality and attention to detail is unsurpassed - even by the expensive bowyers.

Arkansas1,

Yeah, Jerrell told me the bow was prettier than a Southern Belle! :eek: :D Cocobolo and Bocote are my two favorite riser woods and I really like them in combination. I've seen lots of pics of Elmer's bows and he doesn't build any ugly bows, that's for sure!

Do they have a website......

Not many specifics on the site, but there's a whole buncha trad bows and trad stuff in the store. Jerrell is a trad shooter, but there's just more money in the wheelie bows and accessories so he carries a lot of that stuff too. He's pretty high on most of his stuff, but the service is really good. I bought both of my trad bows from him. I'd rather pay the extra and be able to shoot it before I order a new bow that I've never shot.

Mike,

No they don't. But if you will do a search on this forum on Crow Creek Longbows, you will find quite a few threads and some contain pics of some of Mr. Patton's gorgeous bows/work.

They are nice. I have a T/D he made for me about 6-7 years ago. I had hime make a set of recurve and longbow limbs. Those little Copperheads are some shooters too. There is one on the Auction.

Joe,

I came oh so close to getting yours. It got me to looking for another. Fortunately there are a lot of TradGangers from AR and one of them gave me the lead on the shop in Little Rock that stocks some of Mr. Patton's bows. It took longer to get the correct credit card and shipping info on the order than selecting the bow! :D

Mike it's an infectious disease for which there is no treatment, other than another bow!

Who is the black feather made by? I ran into a guy at a shoot some time ago who was selling longbows under the name of Black Feather. The bows were made in Alabama.

Crow Creek are made by Elmer Patton in Arkansas.

Elmer makes a sweet shootin bow. I took my first turkey with mine in SD this past season. Mine is a Black Feather 3pc bocote and ebony. I'd post pics of it but I'm not computer literate enough.
