Our legacy lives on

For over 86 years, we’ve stood for excellence and we still do things the traditional way. Hand sanded and hand crafted to perfection. Each bow is built one at a time, a functional work of art that tells a story and leads a legacy. If you're looking for the finest traditional bow, look no further than Damon Howatt.

new ownership & new life

For years we believe that Damon Howatt took a back seat to Martin Archery due to its focus on compound bows, but things have changed and we’re excited to announce that Damon Howatt is now separated from Martin so it can truly thrive.

For the first time in in over a decade, Damon Howatt can give its full attention and focus on the traditional bows that has made it world-famous in the archery world. We can’t wait to show you what’s coming next!
