We left the outer banks on Friday due to hurricane Irene. My son just started college at NC State so we figured we would go visit him and get out of Irene's  way. On Saturday we decided to go check out the local archery shops..... guess what I found
1970 Bear A take down with 3 sets of limbs.

Best hurricane of my life.

two sets are #1 limbs one set 50# the other 53#
the #3 limbs are 43#, two sets of limbs look like they have never been put on the riser.

I know it's a collectable piece but I am hunting with it in a couple weeks.
