Well any ways the guy who was selling them went and showed my friend Two Bear T/D still in the wood bow that have never been shot.. My friend said that they where made with Yew wood limb. As for the year I do not know.. Has any one or dose any one know if thses bows are rare.. they are T/D bows... any help or pics would be great.. My friend said as well there was some gold leaf or gold leaf work done.........

Signature TDs from 1982 I think.  Worth several grand each if they are what he says.

Do a search on Signature TDs Cody, there have been several threads recently about them.
