1969 - 30th. December

Holless Wilbur Allen was granted a patent on his invention of the Compound Bow which he had designed 3 to 4 years earlier.

Mr. Allen was a keen bowhunter who was disappointed with the hunting bows of the day and so decided to design a new type of bow for hunting. His original design had 'wheels' that were triangular shaped.
