Just got a beautiful new/used longbow by Tim Meigs. Called Ridge Runner Yew. The previous owner didn't know how old it was, and I'd rather not bother Mr Meigs with the question, but since he has made bows over so many years, I'd like to know. Maybe someone here knows his number system, it is marked #6680-031. It is 66" 48Lbs@26" 54Lbs@28" Tomorrow I'll fling some arrows with it. Thanks

Possibly... 66", built in 1980, 31st bow of that model?

Thanks Mike, that looks possible. Maybe larryhatfield and others here will know.

I talked to him on the phone over a decade ago. He was a hoot to talk with. He repaired a bow limb I had from one of his Wapiti bows. I think he charged me $40.00 at the time. Good man. I also had one of his Maverick bows...a longbow design and a great shooter.
