New to me Diablo
« on: September 10, 2013, 06:52:00 PM »
I was fortunate to get my hands on this beauty. From what I was able to learn from larryh it's a 1963 or earlier Diablo. 58" 50#@28"
 
Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

Fred,
 That was the year I first saw light of day or was that the light the Dr. had on his head to show me the way out?   :D    Good looking bow for 50 years old Fred  :thumbsup:
