I am trying to get any info I can on a company named Pro Bo Products.  I have a Contender by them, but have had zero luck with the company name.

Just a guess, but I'm betting that bow was made by Howatt Archery.

The more knowledgeable will be along with more than a guess I'm sure.

Nice looking bow, Trap

Look what I found last night.

An ad that shows the Pro Bo logo from 1974 (archeryhistory.com ads from the past).  New question, does anyone know anything about Pro Line.  About all I could find was they went out of business about 1988.
