Title: New friend today…
Post by: SAM E. STEPHENS on February 07, 2023, 01:22:20 AM
 I'm up at my place in Western Colorado for a week and had been told that there was a few bowyers here. So I looked them up and one of them is only 12 minutes from my house so I had to go visiting. And Mike at Grizzly Bows was a great guy to sit down and talk with. I shot a few of his bows and bought a new pocket quiver. He has an awesome broadhead collection and a little museum also and an awesome trophy room. I went back to my house for more money and returned a few hours later and bought 2-doz finished wood arrows. Anyway great guy to sit and talk old school with...

Sounds like a good deal.  Use to have a bowyer close by and he was always willing to chat.

Super nice guy , when I went back for the arrows I took him a few broadheads that he didn't have. Figured he could display them for people to enjoy in his museum. I shot a few of his bows and they shot very nice...

Does he advertise or have a web site?  Never heard of his bows?

He said he doesn't advertise any , guess word gets around though cause he was gluing up some risers for orders. Figure I'll order one before long..
