Dan Toelke is a graduate of Mike Fedoras school and one of the top up and coming bowyers to say the least. Google for him too.

Jim Hamm has a class at his Texas ranch every year. I went a few years ago. A great class by a great teacher.

If you're up for a trip to AK, I think Jack Harrison still does his classes.   www.jackbharrison.com (http://www.jackbharrison.com)
