Updates: Hickory to maple core

Thank you for your continued support! It has been a busy summer and I’m deeply grateful for the orders. By popular demand, I have replaced the hickory core with maple and all bows will be built with the maple core moving forward. This adds speed and improves consistency through more humid conditions. However, because the maple isn’t as dense and stiff as the hickory, the 60″ and 70″ lengths won’t be available. So for the remainder of 2022 the Royal Huntsman will be offered in 62″, 64″, 66″, and 68″ and draw weights up to 65# at your draw length. These are the most optimal lengths for this design with the maple core. This will help maintain the durability, performance, and limb stability you have come to expect from the Royal Huntsman.

Also, some heavy dymalux risers will be available in limited availability and colors for upcoming orders. I have some applejack and some extra-wide buckskin for even more weight. These bows will not be built with the segmented riser as the dymalux is stiffer than the natural woods and spectraply. These will not require an additional upcharge but will only be available for order while supplies last.
