Diamond archery

Anyone have any info on Diamond Archery Co.? A friend has a old recurve that is a really good shooter. Thanks.

The only one I know of builds compounds, and is now owned by Bowtech.  Never heard of a traditional manufactuer by that name.

The BowTech sold to Savage gun company, and all they make is compounds.  But Savage purchased them for the profit.  I don't think Savage is going gunless, just in it for the money, they were made in the USA, I wonder if they will transfer to China.

I doubt it; their facility in Oregon is too big, to0 much invested here to move.  They have a film-dipping operation there as well.  I work for a shop that cuts most of their bow parts.  Haven't heard anything about them going anywhere.

Well that's good, for the American workers network there, I hope they put that in their agreement when they sold it, that they could move.  I think we should penalize those from moving overseas, but I've never heard of a traditional bow called Diamond.

It is can ironic, US companies moving overseas, and then all the overseas people moving here !

By the way, the guy who sold Bowtech is now on the board at Savage.
