I hunt with a Dan Quillian longbow. My nephew is looking to buy a longbow now. Dan is no longer with us so anybody have names for some good bowyers they can share?
Practice doesn’t make perfect.
Practice makes permanent.

No custom or specific Bowyer but I do enjoy shooting a Bear Montana bow

Predator Longbows out of Muenster , Tx. Robert Lutkenhaus make a great longbow, we both shoot his bows. Might take a cooler with you and stop in at Fischer's or Hess Meats for some outstanding sausage while up to shoot or look at his bows.

There are a couple over on TBH classifieds now. The Sarrell's Blue Ridge is a great one.

I just remembered I have a DQ longbow. How old is your nephew? 44# at 28", 68 " bow. Says DQ 205
I have had it at least 25 years and it has not been shot or strung in quite a while.
PM me if you have any interest.
