  We study Bohr-Sommerfeld states in the context of the irreducible
representations of SU(2). These states offer a precise bridge between the
classical and quantum descriptions of angular momentum. We show that they
recover the usual basis of angular momentum eigenstates used in physics, and
give a self-contained proof in this setting of the formula of Bothwick, Paul
and Uribe for the asymptotics of the inner product of arbitrary coherent loop
states. As an application, we use these states to derive Littlejohn and Yu's
geometric formula for the asymptotics of the Wigner matrix elements.
