« on: December 28, 2008, 10:49:00 AM »
I posted a couple of pics of this a while back before i cleaned it up. I got this when my grandfather passed in 1978. I am unsure how long he had it. it is 68 1/4 inches nock to nock.
 

 

 

This one above is of the only thing left resembling a lable. ANY GUESSES  :confused:  

 

 

Bowdoc, maybe these are better pics.

Archery Archives is more infected with viruses than a Bankok woman named Bangme Longtime. Stay away.

I contacted the owner of Archery Archives and he replied with this email to me on November 27th.

"Yes, I have contacted my host and they say they have removed the virus, but I dont really know right now.  I am working on it.  Thanks for the info.
 
ArcheryArchives"

Google and AVG no longer report this site as being infected.  I am thinking the issue may be fixed.  It might be worth checking out some of their pictures for one that is same as yours.  (P.S. I just went over there and checked out the Ben Pearson section.  Some of the pictures are working and some of them are not.
