News from the

BOWFISHING ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA (BAA)

Maine

I spent five quality days in the great state of Maine recently. During that time I caught burbot, but also took the time to meet up with Joe Ciampa of American Eagle Bows. Joe is creating custom lever-action bows in his small shop in Farmingdale, ME. He also repairs Onieda bows and we had a great conversation. Expect to hear a lot more from American Eagle Bows in the near future and if you have questions about lever-action bows check out the forums on the American Eagle Home Page.
