What is it?...
« on: March 11, 2011, 02:42:00 PM »
Just acquired this bow....I don't have a clue what it is???
The rest reminded me of wade phillips "odd duck"
It has green glass on both sides; on the front is strand and on the back(compression side)looks like woven.  I almost forgot, The tip overlays are missing.
Anyway does anyone have a guess??

I would say Cravotta Bros. Late 50's. Not sure what model. They used a water-transfer decal on the belly of the bottom limb and they are often missing. Sold a Hornet last year with the same green glass combo.
We are all here because we are not all there.
