Here are a couple of photos that started the addiction for me. It is a Medium 1990 Phantom in the Whackmaster Camo. I was told that 100 or less Phantoms were put out in this pattern.

Originally, a instinctive recurve shooter, I struggled trying to adjust to the standard compound bows, especially in the late '70's and the 80's. But a couple of years after leaving the Navy a friend showed me this bow. He was a small dealer, in a small town in Iowa, but he had began selling Oneidas and really liked them. I thought they looked strange, but when I picked it up and shot it, with fingers, I was sold. No extra cabling in my sight window, a recurve with let off was the way I looked at it.

I'll get some more photos eventually and post. Lyle

i wanted to know can you tell me the difference in the 90 phantom and the 90 tomcat it looks exactly the same to me i cant tell the difference the same way with the h250 and h500 they all four look the same???? please enlighten me....

The 1990 tomcat and phantoms differences we see are the outboards first with the tomcat having plastic limb tips on the outboard limbs requiring B50 dacron and the phantom outboards being reinforced with a tensicon overlay on the vermont hardrock maple used fast flight strings. The bows also used different power/outboard limb/ configurations depending on the particular model as well as different string lengths. Here is a link to some specs on the 1990 tomcats/phantoms

I can tell you why not many bows where done in this pattern -- it might look basic and simple -- but there's some layers going on here. Normally you build from light color out to dark because dark covers in less coats over the lighter one. Not with design. There's 2 request for this pattern right now through Joe. I'm studying these pictures to see if it can be reproduced cost effectively. So any more pictures you might have of this pattern would be of great help.
