Doug DuFresne was one of America's best known boomerang
manufacturers in the 1980s and 1990s. Doug manufactured a
line of the highest quality boomerangs produced anywhere in
the world. This include numerous models made out of plywood
and strip lamination of Cherry and/or Ash. Everything was a
great flyer and the manufacturing tolerances were as tight
as you would see on an automotive product. Doug stopped
producing boomerangs in the late 1990s and the price of his
boomerangs increased dramatically. Doug was one of America's
top throwers and a member of the American boomerang team
during the formation of the American organization. Doug was
active in formulating the competition rules for the USBA in
the mid 1980s. This small omega was one of Doug's most popular sport
boomerang products, especially with the younger throwers.
This particular boomerang was part of David Patrick's
throwing kit for more than 10 years. It is a very good flyer
with a flight range of about 20 metres. It is easy to throw
and it works best in calm or light wind. It is in excellent
condition. No chips or dings. Great for a younger
thrower.
