Bear bows and tackle
Well my collection of vintage Bear bows isn't very big, but it doubled in size!
Now up to TWO!
First is my '72-'73 Grizzly, R/H 45#@28 (not sure on the year because the PO refinished it and removed the serial number...d'oh!)
The second is, of course, the Tamerlane I just bought...1969, R/H 35@28", 69"AMO
Starting to get an itch for another....

Re: Bear bows and tackle
Just recently got rid of a 69 grizzly and a 57 cub both in excellent condition. Didn't shoot em any due to poundage.,down to my k mag and a 30# black bear with sea foam green colored or turquoise looking limbs not sure what year it was made. Would like to shoot a 40# montana before I end up getting one on impulse.

Re: Bear bows and tackle
You got pix of the Griz or Cub?
I would also like to shoot the Montana, but if I like it I might end up taking it home....

Re: Bear bows and tackle
No pics, i let a pawn shop have them way too cheap because I didn't shoot them, should have listed them on here, the grizzly was an excellent shooter but was 58# i figured I might damage myself if I kept shooting it. Go to bass pro and try a montana and tell me what you think about it.

Here is a photo with the quiver attached, also made by Bear and period correct.
More pix of the quiver:
And, of course, the four Bear Razorheads (light green)

They are, Dan. I'm starting to get the notion to collect a few.

I have 2 older kmags. Always liked the looks of the tamerlane and the 59 kodiak.
