Title: Yellowstone Longbows....Tell me about them!
Post by: KyStickbow on March 04, 2018, 02:38:00 PM
Interested in Rich's Yellowstone bows. Anyone have one? How well do they shoot, workmanship, etc?  

Pictures would be fantastic.

Thanks

I used to visit Cody WY when I had family there. There was an archery shop that carried some of Rich's longbows. I demo shot a few of them. I remember them being beautiful, wonderful workmanship, and they shot great! They were were really quiet and smooth drawing.


My brother had Rich fix a limb tip from another bowyers longbow. The antler limb tip came off and Rich did a great job of repairing it.


Rich has been around a long time. Sorry I can't offer you any photos but I highly doubt you'd be disappointed with one his bows.

I had a couple of his longbows a few years back. Really nice bows with excellent workmanship. You won't be disappointed.

Anyone else have experience with Rich's bows? I bit the bullet and went ahead and ordered one of his Yellowstone Longbows.

Would love to see pics of others Yellowstones while I wait!

I have a 62" longbow.  It is one of the smoothest bows I have.  It also send an arrow with authority.  Mine has snakeskin on back and elm veneers on belly with bamboo cores.  Great bows and bowyer. Ken
