Title: Damon Howett-Byron Ferguson
Post by: treestand6 on January 12, 2009, 12:13:00 PM
I hope you guys can help. I don't come here often but one of my buddys said this was the place to come!

I have Cancer and the doc said that I would make it thru the holidays, well I'm starting to make up a list and am going to offer about 120 Recurves and Long Bows for sale. This will haappen in a couple weeks. I have alot of different makes-From Bear Grumley take down to Wards bows.


Now to the question-I bought 18 bows yesterday and I don't have any problem pricing the old Bears and such. I bought a Damon Howatt Hunter-61006-RH-50#-62inch And a Bron Ferguson Woodsman-1204-RH-60#-66inch.
 
I would like to know about what they sold for new??  


Thanks Guys----BOB

Bob, I am sorry to hear that you have the Big C. I will pray that you beat it.

The Howatt Hunter should bring up to $275 sometimes more, depends on if you are gonna put it on that auction site or what.

The Ferguson I am unsure of I would guess around the same. I think Byrons bows went for around $500 new when he was making them.

If you put your bows on the classifieds here I am sure you will get some if not all of them sold if reasonably priced. If they are highly collectable and rare items the auction site might be best with the economy the way it is.
