Hi, I'm looking for a good used shooter the same age as I am.My question is ,what would the serial # be to make it a 1965?I am not up on the Bear brand bows and any help would be greatly appreciated.ThanksHarry
the other day somebody asked a question about an old bow and somebody said to ask the guys in the collector forum about it. Maybe they could help you as well. Good luck
Harry, it is pretty easy to date a 1965 Bear bow for that year the serial# begins with 5xxxxx.
Example of a '65 Kodiak: (limb glass is greenish-gray)
