Title: Target Logo? (Pics)
Post by: Novaln1975 on December 09, 2008, 06:56:00 PM
What Bow manufacturer had a target for logo? It’s a simple logo made of 2 concentric circles with a dot in the middle. It’s on a quite old longbow. Stamped on the limb is the number 500, 30 lbs, 25 in.

Anybody?

Bowdoc it wasn't Pearson, I had some of those with the target logo. I want to say Westfield Archery but am not 100% sure at the moment.

Doc. That’s what I was thinking after doing some research. Accidently found myself on the dreaded infected Ben Pearson site.. (My mac seems to be immune though...) and saw a small pic of the 500 model but could not see the logo. Think it was called a « Junior Hickory bow.

A few pics could help.
