Custom Built PLY-FLEX PROFESSIONAL FIBERGLASS 60 1958 Very RARE

  

This is a unique and RARE bow. Rare gets used a lot in vintage bows, but this is the real deal. I have only seen three in the past 30 years. It is a solid fiberglass bow with very little hand shock, and it is very fast due to its design.

It was in rough condition, but I refurbished it. It is ambidextrous and was built in 1958. The draw is 40-50, depending on your drawing style.

The thumb ring is usually longer than the Mediterranean release. I have made extensive searches for this bow and this company; I found very little. I found one archery forum that had a brief discussion about this bow, and I found a Korean Horse bow site that had a photo of a little boy holding one. That was all I could find.

I knew this bow was very unique, and I paid the highest price for a solid fiberglass bow, but it was worth it. Custom-built Ply-Flex bows were made by Sportsmen Accessories Inc.

Out of Beacon, New York. They misspell fiberglass; they use "fibre glass". The company made fishing gear and archery equipment and went out of business in 1961. From an old 1958 Ad: the secrets of ancient warlords and modern technology of fiberglass engineering.

THE TERRIBEL TURK, reflexed, deflexed recurve Hunting bow. Now, a weapon so powerful, so accurate, so effortless to use, so handsomely crafted. Unrivaled accuracy, speed, and killing power, made possible through the ingenious "S" shape that gives 6 arcs of thrust.

It is a very remarkable bow, especially with the new interest in Asian style bows. This bow is styled after the ancient Horse bow, which was used throughout Asia and the Middle East.
