Help--ID old takedown recurve.
« on: April 19, 2009, 01:11:00 PM »
Just wondering if someone could help with ID-ing this old takedown.It was covered with flock(green).The limbs are almost longbow looking.Just a slight recurve.The 4 bolts that hold the limbs on are the allen head type.Looks like a good job for Bow-doc

Not sure but there must be someone that might know how out there.

The limbs still have the flock on them.I believe someone has cut some of the recurve off both ends of the limbs. They look like semi recurve limbs.Maybe he made them that way.I dont know.Maybe Bow-Doc could save her.
