Title: Some Bear arrows to go along with my 1957 Kodiak refinish
Post by: Ray Lyon on July 25, 2013, 04:02:00 PM

Well I just picked these up off the big site.  x-200's un-shot with 12 Bear Razorheads.  The x-200's are listed as the 'premium' grade matched Bear arrows in the 1950's catalog.

These are wood arrows.  In the 1957 Catalog, the fiberglass arrows are listed as x-100s, premium grade wood are x-200, select grade wood is x-300 and utility grade wood are the x-400. x-500's are aluminum that were made from the Easton swift shafting.

Great pickup. I love that box, too.

Samuel,
It's kind of funny about the box. When my 11 and 13 year old daughters watch the old Bear Archery movies, Fred's always 'displaying' a box of Bear arrows at the beginning of his trip. The girls don't know about the pickup yet, but they'll get a hoot out of it.
