There's lots of bows that are no longer being made because either the manufacturer has move on, passed on, or stopped the design.  Is there any old design anyone would like to see available again?

I think the Pearson Cougar got a lot of people started in archery.  It's a good design and if made without frills' it could do so again.

amen

I would also like to see Mossy Oak full foliage camo  and the original Berkely Sassy Shad baits come back.

Change, for the sake of change, is not always wanted or good.  But I guess that is marketing for you.

I thought Bud Boker was going to revitalize Bighorn. He was there and I got one of the last Bighorns while he was alive. I talked to him at Cloverdale that year and we talked about how much I enjoyed my bow. I think that was in 2002, not sure. Anyhow, it is a bow I will always have. I killed a bear with it in Maine just a few months after Bud passed.

I'll add another vote for the Super Necadah. Had a right-hander that was really fun to shoot. I'd love to find a lefty in the mid-40# range.

MINISKIRTS!    :laughing:   don't know where you're looking but they Havnt gone anywhere. I think you Havnt noticed them cause they've gotten MINI-er...
My vote is plain and simple bamboo backed bows,
Even in trad we've gotten a bit "techy" with foam core limbs and static limbs that act like cams. Etc...

Red Wing Hunter bows!

I'll second that one.  Bob had a one piece recurve in the Bob Lee custom lineup up until just a couple of years ago that appeared to be a very similar design to his old Red Wing Hunter, just a bit dressier.  I got to hold one at his shop and it felt very close to my RWH, but never have shot one.  But alas, he only builds takedowns now.  Even the old school traditional builders are getting a little too high tech now.  And that's coming from a 30 year old.   :D   I wanted to get a custom one piece Bob Lee built to match my old bow, but I guess I waited too late.
