Help identifying a recurve
« on: March 05, 2017, 02:33:00 PM »
Hi, I am hoping someone may know something about this recurve I found, it was recommend that I come here. I found it in my grandfathers attic, and I haven't really been able to find anything out about it, other then it might be a Daco. I like to know about the equipment I use. If anybody could tell me anything about it I'd really appreciate it. The only markings on it is the draw(40) and "#1900" that someone wrote with a felt pen, whether that has to do with the model number, manufacture number or just the store it was sold in I'm unsure.

Looks like an inexpensive, low performance, solid fiberglass beginners bow. Many manufacturers produced them and they are not worth much today, regardless which manufacturer made them.

Thank you Mr. Phillips, I think you're right. I thought it was probably a basic generic one might find in a wal-mart. But I like to know so I thought to ask.

Looks very similar to a Paul Bunyan I have.
