I just ran across a receipt from a bow that I had bought last summer for some swapping around. This was the year I graduated..........before I knew about the traditional sickness. Bowhunters Warehouse in Wellsville Pa sold a Custom Kodiak Takedown with a set of 60 lbs limbs for $218. Hence the cliche.......those were the good ole days.
Ah yeah I remember Bowhunter's warehouse...They always had the ads with a ton of stuff listed at good prices.
Wish you could still buy a Kodiak for that.
Was great place to get it!
Cool Beans! I Found this site~ http://www.bowhunterssuperstore.com/oldsite.html
I turned 14 that day...
I used to shop BW catalog a lot. Do you remember the Anderson Archery catalog? I spent alot of money with Anderson over the years...

My first bow was bought from them too! I liked their ad and the way it looked.
Great day - my birth day (not that year) and right about when the bucks really start pushing here in Montana - more often than not I hear my first good set of tending grunts on my birthday - one of the best birthday gifts a guy can get.
I'm sure I was setting in a tree stand somewhere, as that was the middle of the rut!

It was your flavor too Jack

Used to be a good store. I bought Sasquatch broadheads from them for about $12/6......a long time ago.
Since that store was in my territory I'd swing by there when I got the chance. Always a fun place.
You back to shooting yet Richard? How did that Tice and Watts work out?
Yes Steve the elbow came back 100%. It may be stronger than it ever was. The Tice and Watts is a very smooth drawing fast bow. It took a while to find the brace height it likes but once I did it quieted down and performed great. Didn't get a chance to hunt it this year though.
Good luck with the bow sales.
My friends and I bought a bunch of Martin Hunters from them in the early 90s. Every year they would list the past years models on sale for $90.
Yep,
I bought two of them in about Feb/Mar '81 at Woolworths' for $199.00 each. Don't have either one of them now......Oh well.
