Curt Brisky of Briskey Bows just north of Bellingham. GREAT guy and holds classes to make bows and how to hunt bow wood.

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

consider picking the the 4 vol set of "Traditional Bowyer's Bible"

Very good discussion of various styles and expected capabilities.
