Many years ago I traded a bow maker named Gleen Parker ( Grey Wolf Bows) for a Texas Recurve, Comanchie,48" 55#@28 it has the name Martin Strand on the upper limb. Questions does anyone know Martin Strand, what is recomended brace height, any other info you can provide on the bow and its builder. Thanks.

I did a search and came up with this:
Their addy when they were making them was:
Texas Longbows and Recurves PO Box 92, Centerpoint,TX 78010 Curtis Byrd was the designer-maker, a fine bowyer of over 40 years back then. His son was helping him back then so perhaps someone down that way knows what happened to them or even could help you find one of the fine little bows. Telephone # ( then was 512-634-7721 Good luck! I don't know how long ago "back then" meant.
I would also guess that Martin Strand was the original buyer and had his name inked onto the bow.
Good hunt'in
