Sounds like a '61. That year all Grizzlies were camo.
Sounds original-got a pic?

That is more than likely a 1961. All 1961 Grizzlys were camo.

Camo was an option for many years though.

Spring arm quiver works fine. If the 'hole' is a fitting-that could be for a fishing set up or stabilizer. If it is a small screw hole it may have been a hole for a sight mounting, which you obviously don't need.

If it is the bow I am thinking about the hole is for an arrow holder (Can't think of the name of them right now). The long leathertop spring arm quivers will work on them.

Here's a couple of 61s in both factory camo patterns. The leaf pattern is on the left.
