Text is mostly unreadable. Logos should make good use of positive and negative space. Should be balanced and identifiable at a glance. If a picture is worth 1000 words, a logo is worth 1000 pics. They are not easy _at all_ to create. Keep at it. Make 50 variations of your chose design. Try different spacing, colors, fonts, etc. Keep at it. Logo design is super duper hard. ---

I agree with @Dust . Logo design is very difficult. It takes a ton of drafts and when you’re working with clients it will go through multiple revisions. I see where your idea’s going though! By the way, awesome to see a Burque club! If I wasn’t on the other side of Santa Fe I’d probably hang out and feel bad about how poorly I yo-yo! ---

Simplify wherever you can. Albuquerque is a super long awkward name. I would leave it off the logo, go with ABQ Yo-Yo Club or something shorter. Maybe even work ABQ into the mountain range in the logo so you can eliminate the text all together. Get creative with it. ---

oof that says Albuquerque? What’s an Albuquerque? btw I think it’d be super cool to try coloring the yoyo bit yellow so it looks like a sun over the mountains. A couple squigzag lines on the mountain would give it some texture too I think. ---

I’ve never been to Albuquerque. But from your drafts i’m getting the idea of a mountain range, which i’m guessing, if correct, is a big recognition factor. So i’d stick with it. I like the yoyo in the 1st draft. Like the letter Q don’t like the B Just as a thought is their state animals / birds / flowers / trees / food which could be used or incorporated ? It seems to work for Canada with the Maple Leaf. and as a last thought which has just entered my head, so is pproberbly not helpful, so apologies. Could the yoyo become a Q somehow ? ---

I recommend making the bq a text with a font, instead of a hand-drawn text and making the bq smaller than the mountain (A). One more thing, moving “yoyo” beside the bq would be better, or maybe a different place depending on how you feel about it. The yoyo text isnt placed very well at the moment imo.
