I have a chance to buy all the stuff in the pictures below for $100.
I have not seen this stuff in person. I have only been sent the pictures below by the seller.
I am wondering if you guys see anything of value in these pics?
Are any of the older broadheads collectable or worth anything?
How about the older back/bow quivers?
It is over an hours drive one-way or I would just go check it out. I am trying to not waste my time if its just a bunch of junk.
Thanks
Tenbrook

BTW he says the box in the photo has about 200 arrows in it. I'm just afraid they are all going to be worthless?
Should I go........
I would.
Make an offer to the seller. There seems to be several BHs in there as well as the wire loop points for bird hunting. They are not cheap nowadays. Even at .50 per arrow you have $100. Maybe offer $75 and see where it goes.
I would.
Even the arrows are crap, the broadheads will be at least good for small game, the bow quiver and the back quiver look functional and those pure glass bows will make some kids very happy and i guess that should already cover the 100$
and the rest will be a bonus if usable. Just my 2C
100 bucks no question I would buy it if you have the extra funds laying around. The leather back quivers cleaned up $25 plus just depends. You also have a leather top Bear bow quiver that looks to be in great shape. Not counting all the arrows and BH's and other treasures laying there. good luck..Henry
dont know about a treasure but dang sure worth $100, may be some cool stuff in there you cant see in the pics as well.
It's worth $100 just for fun !!
North or south of Santa Cruz :)
I would buy it! Cody I sent you an email.
Worth $100, but I'm a cheapskate, I'd offer $50-70 and see what happens.
Probably worth it, but I'd make a lower offer also, and see where it goes.
It looks like that one quiver has a large amount of mold on it. If it is mold, keep it away from your other leather stuff. It can spread.

The leather cap bow quiver is probably worth the cost of admission alone.
If you don't buy it, send me the info so I can!
I'd say you have a bunch of folks slobbering right about now, wishing they could buy it too!
BUY IT!
I bought it. I'll start a new thread with updated pics.
Funny, I have exactly the same bow as the one second from the right in your picture. Came to me from my father in law. I assumed someone had chopped it out of a chunk of aluminum for him.
im guessing in the fs/ft section ? lol.
id have offered 20$ and hope for the best. im a cheapass too...
-hov
Could someone please help me ID what I have and what is worth keeping/collectable/worth $$$.
Any rare broadhead in the bunch? Most of them say "Hills Hornet" the others say "BOD.KIN" all the others have no names as far as I can see.
Thanks
Tenbrook

Holy crap. All that for $100? Sounds like a great deal.
I'd say you got your money's worth.
Congratulations!
God bless,Mudd

Mudd I was hoping you would chime in. :D
Any chance you could give me an idea on what I have broadhead wise? Are the "Hills Hornets" worth anything? How about the "BOD.KIN" or any of the other broadheads/tradepoints? If yes how much?
Thanks
Tenbrook
the bodkin was a 3-blade broadhead from the 60's. flew straight and tough as nails, but hard to sharpen. the 2 fiberglass bows look like they could be "paul bunyan's."
No doubt about it! You got quite a bargain if you got all that stuff for $100!!!!
I'm sorry, I don't have a clue but I still say that anything $100 or under and you got a good deal.
God bless,Mudd
well worth the 100 bones
some good pieces of archery history there
Id say you payed a fair price. Bout what it was worth IMO
what is the recurve
QuoteOriginally posted by GRINCH:
what is the recurve
All it says is "Perry" and 35#.
the golden-colored shafts with red and silver cresting and white fletching look like they may be micro-flites. look and see if there is a number on the shaft, and/or if in fact it does say micro-flite.
Darn I was still waiting for directions, north or south :)
$100 worth of fun...
The tape on quiver with the pouch should fetch 50-70 dollars on the auction site; maybe classifieds too. The BH's that are not marked Hills or Bodkin look more interesting. The ones that are 2 blade and have the pin holes are worth a few bucks each-need better pics.

They say "DURA GLASS" on them?

My father in law shot those gold arrows back in the 60s.....
Here are some detailed pictures of one of each type of broadhead.
Any info on what I have would be great.
Thanks!

The Hills and Bod Kins will make some great rabbit arrows. The trade points are a bit of a different story.... Good find for sure.
I believe those broadheads on the aluminum shafts are a Taiwan made Chuck-It manufactured by Hoyt which is what you should do with them. I too, will say that you did OK with the price.
Before you use the ones with the barb(on the camo arrows) on the back make sure you are allowed. In NJ you cant use a barbed head for anything.Still a great find for the money.Mount any of the arrows on a piece of 1x3 and stain the wood up and sell them for $10.00 and you made your money back in no time.
Check with the History crew but I think the Perry bow is worth a few bucks!

I have been getting some offers. Looks like its worth about $100.
Keep the info coming on the broadheads!!! :thumbsup:
Here are two more styles of broadheads. I didn't realize these were different.
Anything good?

The top one looks like an older Eclipse. The bottomw could be a Magnus.
The bh's on the aluminum shafts are Hoyt chuck-its. I believe they were only made in 100gr. I bought 15 of them about 1985 and killed the first deer in my area with one. Went on to kill 17 additional deer over the next 5 years using them. Surprisingly I never had even one of them fail. Always got pass throughs, unless stopped by shoulder, but never had a blade to bend or break.
Hard to believe when looking at how they are made. Still have 14 of the heads. Used them with 55 and 65# Kodiak recurves.
Thanks for all the great info guys it has realy helped!
So far I have:
-Sold the Perry bow
-Sold the Quivers
-Trade pending on all the fiber glass arrows for some "Primo" Osage
-Put the 4 arrow Bear Archery quiver on e bay
-Started my own broadhead/arrow collection :D
Thanks again :thumbsup:

See you already had 80 bucks worth of fun!!! Not to mention you will probably have a little profit to put in the slush fund for the next find. Careful though, it is VERRRRY addicting.
I would have taken the $100 and bought some new stuff. :eek:
