Title: Bucknut, 72 Bear Grizzly
Post by: Ron Haines on April 16, 2016, 08:10:00 PM

I recently purchased a 1972 Bear Grizzly 50# from Bucknut.  The bow is in a better condition than he lead it to believe, I am very happy.  Bow shoots like a dream come true.  There is something about those old bows.

Got her bare shafted today with Gold Tip Trad XT 400 cut to 30".  Up front I have a 150 grain field point with a 50 grain insert and 5" feathers doing the steering.  

I shot tonight right up till dark.  Probably put about 150 arrows through her.

I big thank you to Bucknut for solid bow at a great price.

Great bows! Have 2 on the rack presently.
My 53lb. gets a lot of shooting. Picked it up for 45.00 from a fellow welder. Shot 7 squirrels this past fall. Now set to bowfish!

Enjoy shooting your Grizz, Ron!

Thanks Ron.  I just try to keep it simple and call em' the way I see em' and don't try to hide anything. It usually works out better that way. I was sure you would like how she performs. Glad you are putting her to good use.
