A western Ohio manufacturer is offering a custom-designed hunting bow inspired by Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Lakota Industries Inc. announced its "Sarah-Cuda" bow Wednesday in honor of the Alaska governor's "lifelong passion for the sport of hunting." The pink camouflage bow weighs 3.4 pounds and is designed to accommodate female hunters and archers. It retails for $590. Lakota chief executive Dick Williamson said the bow also pays tribute to women who "bear the responsibility of family and work while strengthening the moral fiber of society." The company will donate 10 percent of Sarah-Cuda proceeds to the National Association for Down Syndrome. Palin, 44, is a mother of five who gave birth earlier this year to a son with the genetic condition. ___ On the Net: Lakota Industries: http://www.lakota-industries.com National Association for Down Syndrome: http://www.nads.org |
