There is a guy still in merril that makes longbows. NewWood Longbows is the name of the company. Very nice shooting bow.

Expect to pay between 3 & 4 big ones . I know another person in town that has about 25 . He is getting up there in years & may be ready to part with some .

I'll take a pic of my Zebra wood . I showed it to a LH trad guy in Greenbay , he offered me stupid money & I said no .

I'm thinking Staghorn is still in business making bows. Of Course not with Bill or Elle Pyle but I think the company has been re-started again. Maybe google the name or check some trad websites. Good luck.

If you want to know anything about Staghorn bows, call Mike Steliga of Bruin bows. He worked for Bill Pyle. If you want to see a collection of Staghorn bows, stop in at his shop near Antigo. Good stuff...

One of their kids, or grandkids, has all of the original stuff and still makes a few a year. They have a website with some for sale, I remember looking at the website a year or 2 ago.
