1960s Colt Plainsman Recurve Bow
Colt Recurve Bow made by Wing.
Circa: 1960s?
Well here's something you don't see very often.
"In 1962 Colt launched its archery division. Most bows sold by Colt were made by either Wing (Bob Lee) or Ben Pearson, generally Wing in the early years, and Pearson later."
"Colt bow models included (from high end to low end) several target bows: Heritage, Grand National, National Match, Targetsman Express, Trophy Mark I, and hunting bows: Huntsman Hi Power, Game Master, Plainsman, Pioneer, and Trail Blazer. They also sold 3 models of low-end fiberglass bows."

dav2no1, Cool. :-)
My father had a hunting bow. I can't remember the brand or poundage, but it was a high-powered, non-compound bow for deer hunting.
