Title: Vintage Target bow and sight - info?
Post by: ibehiking on March 26, 2012, 07:50:00 PM

I recently picked this bow up from a neighbor. It seems to be a vintage target bow but I cannot identify it. Can anyone help ID this bow?

It has part of a sight on it and I would like to see if I can get the other parts and try using it as a target bow. Any info about the sight and how to find replacement parts would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff

Jim;
  No problem. Thanks for looking. I am pursuing some other options. I got the bow strung and shot a few arrows. It is very smooth and well balanced. We'll see how I do once I get a sight on it.

Thanks to everyone for the advice and informatio.

Jeff
