"Hi
Rick,
Today I went out to my moms place and shot my new bow you sent me last week.
I bought a Kanati Quiver and installed it and it looks great. By the way, the
guy who owns Kanati said he knows you and complemented me on my choice of bows.
Nevertheless, the bow is amazing. I cannot feel a hint, and I mean, a hint of
handshock. I love the mass weight of the bow especially with the quiver. And,
my groups were very consistent. Also, I have been shooting the way you showed
me at your shop with very good results. I now own five trad bows and have shot
alot of other brands but I think your design is perfect!
Thanks
for making such a Great Bow Rick! Me and that Stinger will be chasin critters
this fall.
Your Friend,
Brian"
"Hello Rick, how have you been? I have been good, chomping at the bit for hunting season...can't wait. I just wanted to say hello and thanks again for a great bow...I couldn't be happier with it. I went to ATAR earlier this month and had a blast...had tons of people ask about my bow and everyone loved it. How was Denton Hill? Hope all is going well for you and I look forward to talking to you soon. Thanks again
Jeremy"

"Got
the bow on Fri. and have been playing with it ever since. It is better than
expected. Thanks for a really fine job.
See you at Denton Hill"
"See you later and have a great holiday. Also want to tell you, the bow is super, I really like it , shooting well with all my winter duds on I have great confidence in it. Thanks again"
"Rick,
Thought I would send you a e-mail of my deer kill with my longbow, I will bring
my bow up sometime, so you can look at my string and fix my setting (again,
since I am hard on it)
Thanks Ricky!!!!"
"You have some gorgeous looking bows. I
have been searching for bows all over the place and was just hoping to get some
information. Just some information about the bows and possibly speed. Thank
you for your time. I will also be going to the deer and turkey expo so hopefully
I can
check out your bows there. Thank you."
"Hello Rick,The bow came last thursday,it looks great.I didnt get to shoot it untill saturday,seems to shoot really well,I still have to tune it,find the best arrow,I'm starting with a 1916 alummium at 26.75 in length.Hope to get a spring gobbler with it,thanks for a good job.I'll let you known about the turkey hunt."
"Just wanted to say thank you to your wife for taking the time to talk to my wife and I yesterday at the Deer Expo in Madison. We were looking at a bow for her. She is new to archery and we had no idea what she would like. Your wife took the time to let her hande some of your one piece bows and 3 piece bows. She also let her try drawing back a couple to find what weight would work for her. Being a left-eye dominant shooter, it has been a challenge for her to find a bow in the 40# range to try drawing back. We stopped by all of the traditional booths and must say that your booth was the only one we received this level of service from.."
"I’m glad I had a chance to talk to you Fri. night at the show. I’m also glad I had a chance to shoot your bows"
"Rick,
Hello ...we met at the Columbus show (I am the guy who test bows for High Country
Archery) where I purchased a Striker Xtreme from you. What a nice bow to shoot!
Just last Monday, opening day of turkey season I shot a nice 24lb. gobbler with
the bow. 20 yards, clean spinal shot custom made arrows. Here are some pictures.
Also, I have been thinking of purchasing another bow or two from you. I would
like to give them as gifts to my closest hunting friends."
"Hey Rick I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know what a great bow the new Stinger is, it is a tack driver. My shooting has improved dramatically since I 've been incorporating some of the things that we worked on when I was last there. I am more consistant now than I ever have been and my range has been extended. Just wanted to tell you thanks and keep building those bows."
"Rick,
Got the bow today. Went out to shoot it this evening. It is beautiful! Both to look at and to shoot.
Thanks for the fine workmanship"
"Hey Rick, I am still shooting the slapstik you
made for me, it is a great bow."
"Hi!!!
I have decided that after 25 years of shooting compounds, and playing around
with a borrowed recurve bow the last few months that I am making the switch
to traditional. I visited your booth as well as a few others at the deer and
turkey expo in Madison WI a few weeks back. I tried out a couple of your bows
and really liked the way they felt and shot. I do most of my hunting from a
tree stand, but in the last couple of years have also hunted out of a portable
ground blind which interests me in your "xtreme" line of bows. But
I also liked the "stinger" with the forward handle. Just wondering
if you have any advice for someone who is "green" on traditional bows."
"Thanks
again for the slapstick! that thing is the
BOMB!! I've never shot so well in mylife!!! WOW!"
"Hi Rick!!
I have been shooting my new striker stinger for a couple weeks now. I am having
a heck of a lot of fun shooting this bow. I hung onto my compound yet just in
case I did not think I was ready to hunt with the stinger yet, but I think I
can retire my hoyt and hunt with the stinger...."
"Rick, I shot till it got to dark...This is one of the BEST bows I have..."
"Hey
Rick I received the bows today. WOW! do they look nice. Thanks again."
"Just want to let you know that I recieved my stinger bow today.
Looks great---- grip feels good---will set it up tomorrow and see what it shoots
like. You done a supurb job. THANKS."
"Have set up new bow and shot it. Love it. Craftmanship is unbelievable!! GREAT job."
"Hi Rick, I did receive my new bow on Sat. It is awesome!!! I think before the mail man was out of the driveway I had let the first arrow fly. It shoots as smooth as the the one I tried in Iowa. Hope to see you in Iowa in 08. GREAT CRAFTSMANSHIP "
"Mr. Ellis, I have a 54" extreme and I love it."
"Rick,
You build one awesome bow!"
"The bow is a work of art! Thanks again for all your help and hard work"
