Jim Mayfield became interested in the sport of boomerangs in the mid 1980s. He travelled to boomerang tournaments to compete and to collect boomerangs from other top competitors. Jim learned how to make his own boomerangs rather quickly. He began producing commercial boomerangs at his Gunnison Colorado home in the late 1980s. A few years after forming Colorado Boomerangs, Jim sold his company to Richard Pollock-Nelson. Jim worked with Richard after the sale to make sure that the quality of Colorado Boomerang products remained high after his departure. Jim Mayfield was critically injured in a motorcycle accident on 11 October 1999. He died two weeks later at the age of 48. Early examples of Jim's products are very collectable. Colorado Boomerang products made under the direction of Richard Pollock-Nelson are high quality replicas of the original Mayfield boomerangs. 

This is a very early sport boomerang prototype made by Jim Mayfield. This is a very limited production model. It is signed and dated 9/9/88 and it has "Hat" and 2/2 handwritten on the underside. The tips are painted green, yellow and white. This boomerang is in excellent condition.

Specifications: Right Handed ; Tip-to-tip Span = 35 cm ; Weight = 80 gm
