my dad has an old allen compound bow, its in pretty good shape and he was told recently that it was one of the original compound bows, we're looking for some info on its age, history and value, anybody know anything about these?

I don't know about that bow, but I still hunt with a Bear Blacktail Hunter that I bought in 1979 at my Uncles' American hardware store. Still shoots like brand new...

I have seen them before but know nothing about them.
The owner of the archery shop I use has one hanging on the wall---he is pretty sharp about things. I will ask him what he knows about them.


I have one of the old Dyna Bows.-Martin I think . I always get the martin and graham dynabow confused. Mine is the one with the longer bottom limb.
If nothing else they are good conversation pieces
