Black Locust Striker
« on: July 07, 2019, 02:22:31 PM »
Can someone point me in the right direction for quality black locust striker.  Harold Fowlers site says they are not taking any orders.  I've been trying to locate one with no luck for a while.

I agree with the McClain advice, but if you can come across a Fowler, they are top notch too

Yep, Mr. Harold`s strikers are pure craftsmanship. Good luck finding someone who will part with one. They`ve passed into the realm of collector`s items.

I just got a few black locust strikers from Jeff Harrison that are great.  But I am a little biased as I think his are as good as there is.

Matt , makes some from FMJ arrow shaft and they accept field tips for counter weight , you can pick out the striker tip .. he had these at this years NWTF and was selling out fast .. one of his main seller's was black locust and diamondwood ... check them out on his facebook page .... great strikers ... with the counter weight you can change the balance and tone of the striker ...
