You said its faint and smeared. Do you Think it could say "SAMPLE"  sometimes bows were stamped to be floor models.

Sure would love to see pictures.
Relax,

Nope C-R it says SINGLE in capital letters I had to go look the little bow feels good shoots good but is very loud but it donsn't have any string dampers of any kind and the brace height is a bit big I think for this bow 7 1/2"s what do ya'll think.

I think you will get that old bow to quiet down with some tuning.

Probably could be the best shooting bow in your line up.

Hate to be a nit picker, but it looks like it says "Signal" rather than "Single".
