Well the star ment a factory "blemish".....but 90% of them were not blemished...But simpley sold at a lower price.The star stamping make it a blemish now for sure...but I don't think there were really many blemish bows actually sold.Discounted price yes....bowdoc

If I am not mistaken, the Star stamp indicates a bow that was sent back to the factory on a warranty claim, a replacement bow was sent to the original buyer, then it was sold at a discount as non warranted bow.

There are others here that will correct me and give a more accurate answer.
