Anyone know anything about this bow an Amarco?
« on: December 05, 2010, 09:28:00 PM »
I just received this bow and another one and I'm trying to learn anything about them that I can.  The first one is a recurve marked with an emblem AMARCO Customised Composite Bow    American Archery Company  Clarendon Hills Ill.
Stamped on the right side of the sight window is the following: 66" 9C355 34*27.  
Here's a few pics of the bow including sight window, tips and the front and back of the handle.
   
   
   
   
   
Does anyone have any information regarding this bow?  I'm not looking to sell it, as it's been in the family for a few decades at least. Thanks in advance!
Stickbows, Sidelocks and Flyrods, anything to make it more of a challenge!

Bear Kodiak 50@28 “the girl”
Palmer Classic w/ 50@28 and 56@27 limbs
58 Kodiak 45@28
Kodiak 59'er 50@28
1958 Pearson Hunter dual shelf 45@28
and my original longbow I used as a kid.

I have several of them. They are American Archery in the 50's before they moved to Oconto Falls, Wi. A couple of mine are longer than 66". I would not call them rare as I do come across them quite alot. Not super valuable but nice collectors pieces with the Clarindon Hills markings. I have not shot mine yet but they look very shootable.
