True Traditional Bows Crafted One At A Time


The Kankakee River Longbow with Osage and Maple riser with grain burning highlights


Welcome to our online showroom! Sauk Trail offers 5 traditional bows, which include our 2 Longbow models, the Kankakee River and the Beaver Creek. Also in the Longbow family are the Mudd Creek and Neenah Creek Flat Bows. We offer a true 50's style one piece Recurve. The Spirit Recurve has become our best selling bow to date.

Our most popular bow today is the Spirit Recurve. We designed this bow for speed and maneuverability which makes this an excellent bow for hunting from treestands as well as ground blinds. This one piece beauty is available in 60" length. We offer two styles.. .

..

Our standard model that gives you your choice of riser material and limb core as well as tip overlays..

...

The Elite model is crafted with exotic woods, quality limb core and superior grade veneers. Both models come standard with our offset handle design. Your custom crafted Spirit is truly a one of a kind bow. We have never made two alike.


We have two longbows available in our line. 

.

The Kankakee River is a straight reflex style and is available in a 66" or 68" length.

This is the first longbow we introduced almost 30 years ago and is still a top selling model today. ..

.

The Beaver Creek is a deflex-reflex design which is extremely popular with traditional shooters. Also available in 66" and 68" length. ..

For those who prefer the ease of shooting a flatbow, we have designed our Mudd Creek after the Plains Indian style, wide limb and reflexed. ..

..

Our Neenah Creek features a deflex-reflex design that  incorporates a narrow limb with a sleek limb core which makes this bow quick shooting and a pleasure to handle. ...

Both the Neenah Creek and Mudd Creek are available in 62" and 64" lengths.

All Sauk Trail bows are finished in satin unless otherwise requested.

Sauk Trail bows have a one year warranty. ..

Our Spirit Recurve with Yew riser and Walnut limbs.

This bow is avaliable in weights to 70 lbs.


The Spirit Elite


We offer a variety of tip overlays in many different styles from simple to multi-layered.

Sauk Trails Exclusive Offset Handle


Our Offset handle design eliminates 2 steps in the thought process of traditional bow shooting. First, being hand placement. Our design provides positive hand placement each time you pick up the bow. Second, a natural cant. When drawing the bow, the offset creates a natural cant that you will find to be completely comfortable and as we said, natural.


We are proud of our entire line of Custom Bows, the Spirit Recurve, the Kankakee River and Beaver Creek Longbows and of course the Mudd Creek and Neenah Creek Flatbows. We are ready to build you a true one of a kind classic.
