Title: Best book
Post by: term on July 30, 2010, 07:43:00 AM

I would like to get more serious about collecting,specifically 1966 model bows. What are the best books or web resources for me to use to get more familiar with each era and brand. Thanks. TERM

As Mr. BD alludes too, It can be rather vague out there... I bookmark a lot on the online auction sites and look for old Archery Catalogs and other items. One in particular that is good reference is the Robin Hood Archery Co. The one I have is dated 1969 and has an assortment of Archery Companies products. It's always fun to be on the hunt!!!!!!!!!  (http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll292/toxo-collector/archery064.jpg)

You can learn a lot just by watching th auction sites.  Eventually you will see just about everything there is.

Also check out the classifieds here on Tradgang.

You don't have to buy...just read.  And of course just like playboy, look at the pictures.
