Hi PEOPLE! Shout out to let everybody know that Kevin Forrester is FIRST CLASS! Wanted some maple shafts and HE had to go the extra mile. First batch didn't work out right when HE spined them at "his shop" so back to the drawing board! He got 2 dozen for me spined between 40 & 43 pounds. And sent them off! They were packed so well that the USPS would have had to deliberately try to mess things up! SHAFTS are BEAUTIFUL! Arrived in great order! He's been crazy busy so orders might take a little while but You CAN;T ASK FOR BETTER SHAFTS & SERVICE! Batman

He seems to be on the cutting edge of using uncommon shaft materials .In that respect he is a bit more adventurous than me.I use what I consider to be the best and don 't deviate from that formula too much.The characteristics of the various hardwoods he uses is interesting to say the least.The guy sounds like he puts his heart and soul into his work.Obviously he is one decent person which the world needs more of.Good news for once. Great post. OSR

Kevin was at the recent Moses Lake Rock shoot and was set up with some test arrows we were free to try out.
You guys are right in that he is really dedicated to his business and puts his heart and soul into his products.
BTW, You will not find better leopardwood in looks and performance.
