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.

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

Very good discussion of various styles and expected capabilities.
