Yes.....the 'Running Deer' target at Forkesville, PA. I sure do miss that 'shoot'. Lots of fun trying to hit that deer in the vital zone at 40 yds distance....was lucky twice ! Got my 'patch' for hitting it at the mark.

That is a gorgeous bow. I have a few Strunks and sure love to shoot them. The oldest I bought from him in 1993 and still shoot it.

John built me one of these in November. It’s a bow I’ll never ever sell. You have yourself a keeper!

Very nice looking bow. I have a beautiful spliced Osage billet from John I’m starting this winter. It’s so nice I’m intimidated to begin.

John is one of the great bowyers around, been a friend of mine for 40+ years. I have one of his personal bows that he gave me after I took him pig hunting in Northern California many years ago its 80#@27" I can't pull it any more its a Yew self bow rawhide backed English style with horn nocks, great bow!!!

The 'New Spirit' bow has Bamboo on the back and Yew on the belly with a lam of blood wood between and black horn at the nocks. I saw a 'New Spirit' longbow on another site and thought...."That's a great looking bow! Why don't I get one as a Christmas present for myself" ? I called and spoke with John and his Mrs. about the details and later sent a Postal money order. Within three weeks or so, I had the bow in my hands. Doesn't get better than that !
