Anyone know anything about a metal riser, fiberglass limb takedown called the Bush-wacker 1 made by Glas-Lite, RH 50# ?

Roy,
Found this for you…
This is from an article on take-down hunting bow in the July 1972 issue of “Archery World” magazine.
The three-piece Plas/Steel Products Bushwhacker (second from bottom) featured an aluminum riser and fiberglass limbs. It was an economy TD recurve. I’ve only seen a couple and have never shot one.

I have had several, they made low poundage short youth madels as well as adult models.

I have one hanging in the garage. Bought it for my kids first bow. Back in 1972 I remember a guy in the club I belonged to had a 45 or 50# one. He was just starting in archery. I remember those glass limbs were a little rough to shoot.

They had solid brown glass limbs. Lot of guys used them for bowfishing as they were low end and pretty durable. They are collectable today.
