Title: Old Bow & Broadheads I.D.?
Post by: eddings220 on March 13, 2012, 04:48:00 PM

Hey guys, can anyone help with ID of this bow and broadheads. A buddy I work with had these, they belonged to his grandfather and he thinks they are from around the 50's or 60's, but not sure. The bow did not have any writing on it, possibly could have been refinished at some point. The two big broadheads did have the name ACE on them. Thanks for your help.

The bow looks a bit like an old Coe Archery bow by Cliff Coe in Otter Lake,Michigan.
