Trivia Question: What Bow Did Bo Duke Shoot?
By Dave Hurteau
We all have our embarrassing secrets. I’ll spare you mine, for the most part. But for the purposes of this blog, I will admit to one: As much as I would like to trace my interest in archery to the likes of Hill, Bear, Pope, or Young, the truth is that the real greats were all before my time. No, being a product of the television generation (an embarrassing admission itself), my initial fascination with archery was sparked by the exploding arrows of—cringe—Bo and Luke Duke.
Here’s Bo, the handsome devil, in fine form. I have blacked out the name of his bow in Photoshop. Now, can anyone tell me what model he’s shooting? Of course, in doing so, you will be admitting that you are either a hopeless bow geek or a fellow fan of “The Dukes….”

by the looks of it he shot a bow made by hoyt, he shot a hoyt
I'm much more familiar with Daisey's jean shorts but the bow is a Martin
Martin Cougar
a bear whitetail
Martin Warthog. - I'm a bow fan.
a Browning Xcellerator
Martin Warthog
Looks my old Ben Pearson, 1 of the 1st compounds, no let off
that is a martin cougar magnum, may dad passed his down to me, he told me he bought in 86 when he got out of the marine corp. what did i win?
I will say, you aren't the only one that wanted a bow after watching the Duke boys. I got the bow, now if I could just find a car like them......
Yep. Martin Warthog.
He Shot an Arrow. Duh!
Martin Warthog and Cougar
I was always to busy looking at Bo Duke and the General Lee to be worried about the type of bow he used.
What I want to know is why are Bo and Luke messin around shooting their bows while poor ol' Uncle Jessie is likely to break his neck falling off the roof while trying to climb the rickety ladder?
martin jaguar
you ain't the only Dukes fan even though they are way before my time
Golden Eagle
It's a Martin Warthog
Martin Warthog just like mine.
looks like bo duke's pants were as tight as daisy duke's shorts!!
Sorry about that - the system wouldn't let me enter my answer.
He shot the outhouse. And it blew up because he put dynomite on the to of the arrow
Martin Warthog. Now how many of you guys did a search for Bo and Luke Duke images and came up with the same photo with the name of the bow on it. My first compound bow was a Bear Polar LTD with a whopping 33% let off, replaced that with a Browning Drake Flightmaster, then PSE Edge 50/50. I'm now shooting a Mathews Monster and a Z7. The bow in the photo in the avatar photo on my user name is the Bear Polar LTD. Still have it and is sure different if you ever try to go back and shoot it. The buck in the avatar was shot on opening day of Texas bow season Oct. 3rd 1981. I'd been bowhunting for three years before getting my first bow buck. Ten years later I finally took him to a Pope and Young scorer. He missed making Pope and Young net by a half inch. Grossed 142. I came home that night after taking the buck, told my wife (first year if marriage)I had gotten a deer. No big deal to her she expected it as I was going deer hunting. She's since found out that just because your going hunting doesn't mean your bringing home a deer.
Martin warthog, avid dukes fan!!!!!!!
Wonder if Jesse fell off that ladder when the outhouse blew up!
its a Bear Whitetail 2.
bear warrior
haha
It is, for the record and as many of you have said, a Martin Warthog.
Why were they shooting cedar arrows out of a compound? Braindead??
A Martin Warthog, but it kind of reminds me of my Bear Whitetail Hunter. Which happens to be my first I've ever owned, I Love it! I hunted several times with it this fall :)
bear, brown bear
Mathews X7, duh...
It is a Martin Cougar II.
Groovy. We know what bow Bo shot. What bow did Luke Shoot?
I have a vintage Martin Warthog, USA, assembled by Steve Plummer, numbers, 2430, WHD2177, bought it new, still looks new, shot maybe a dozen times.
