Title: Is this a Bear Archery bow stringer?
Post by: longbow fanatic 1 on March 06, 2016, 03:34:00 PM
I received this bow stringer when I purchased a 1965 Bear Kodiak. The bow doesn't look like it has been shot very much for its age. I was curious if anyone can identify if the stringer is also an original Bear Archery stringer. As you can see, the stringer hasn't been used much either.

I used to have one like that in the 70's and it was a Bear.  I would say it is with pretty high certainty.

It looks like a Bear stringer to me.

Looks just like the one I got with a '71 Super K, but in a different color.

That looks exactly like the stringer that I received when I bought a new BW takedown in 1984. I think it was called a "bow pal" or "archery pal" stringer. Still have it. Works well.

Looks just like mine except my cord is white. I still use it.

It is just like the one I got with my 72 Kodiak Hunter and I still have it. Usually use my Selway especially on my small tipped Wings.
