Any info on the pricing, types of bows, etc?

Funny you should post this. I happen to be in need of arrows. I was about two weeks away from putting an order in at rudders bows for the english longbow arrows. What's your pricing and options look like?

You showing off any of your wares at the Indy Moot in a few weekends?

English Longbows are my specialty, Linen backed ash 40# @ 28" with linen string and leather wrapped handle $100, add horn nocks $140, stained to resemble yew,$160. Hickory back, ash belly, 40# to 65# pull, draw lengths from 28" to 32", leather wrapped handle, Celtic knot work design, horn nocks $275.
Here are a few pics of some of the bows I have sold;

Beautiful stuff! I'm droolin'! I may be in the market for a nice hickory with horn tips sometime in the future, so I'll keep you in mind!

Those are some very nice bows and arrows! I too may have to get myself one!

You've got my business for sure. Your now 1 project behind jun my queue. If my bid for a Brescia Spadona falls through I'm going to have to divert some of that money to your arrows. really good looking work. So nice it'd hurt a little to fire them and eventually wear them out. only hurts a little though so I'll be shooting those bad boys.

Rocky,
I am seriously considering asking you to make me a dozen for this month coming up. All my arrows are crap cajuns that did not even have the shafts tipped so any time I hit something hard they broke off from impact.

I was thinking about the russet color feathers with the cockfletch being green
(I realize I run the risk of making it hard to find but they will look so good in my quiver!)

Shoot me a PM when you have a few minutes and we can talk.

Thanks so much for your kind words master Kellen! I stand ready to be your Boyer and Fletcher!

Hey fellow rangers I want to post a correction, the male peacock flight feathers should read "Faux". Actual Peacock flights are very expensive(Cheapest I could find on line were $3 a piece!). They are referenced in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales as the fletchings on the Yoeman's arrows. The dyed turkey feathers that I did are a spot on match though, if I do say so my self! Pics to follow!
