LaFond's Lightning 4 Alum Ferr. This year, 2009, is the 50th anniversary for them. Present owner of the company is none other then our own Bill Hinkley...

Yep.....I went up north of Grayling to do an article for the ABCC(American Broadhead Collectors Club)after meeting former owners of the company at the Kalamazoo Trad Show and made a deal with the new owner of the tool shop and ended up getting all the equipment which needed to be rebuilt. Now I'm working on the website. Hope to have them out soon with some different models. I'm thinking on a custom shop also for any weight that someone might want. The only thing slowing me down is this damn job, but thankful to have it right now.

Doc....thats what I was hinting around to on broadheads that came out in 1959...   ;)  ...Bill   :archer:

Well.............I'll try to get some made up, I'm waiting on some ferrule blocks to be made up so I don't have to just slot them one at a time with the one block I have. But for small quanitie's  I can make a few. I'll also make some Lightning Rippers up, I've had alot of request for them. Thanks for your interest....see you in a few weeks.....Bill  :archer:
