Artisan Name	Curtis Hoagland
Artisan Category	Longrifles, pistols and fowlers
Artisan Bio	I WAS FREE BORN. I was born in 1953 in Crawfordsville , IN. At age four I received a Daisy from my Grandpa. It has been all downhill from that point on. In 1975 my "building" career began with a TC Hawken kit . Again, all downhill. My good friend Jerry Eitnier introduced me to flint in 1979 . I build mostly Penn. & Va. guns with an emphasis on reliability i.e fast ignition , a good trigger & coned muzzles. The greatest influence on my building was going to the Ohio - Kentucky show many years ago & being able to see the works of the old masters. I am mostly self taught with the exception of an old friend a block from me teaching me to relief carve & John Schippers at Conner Prairie teaching me to engrave. GOD BLESS AMERICA
