Title: A nice old Grizzly
Post by: JCJ on August 07, 2012, 07:08:00 PM
A friend picked this nice old 1960 Grizzly up at an antique shop.

I bought a string for it and did some shooting today. I don't think I have ever shot a quieter recurve.

Neat old bow with a gorgeous Zebrawood I-Beam and some very tiny tips.

Jay,

Thanks for sharing. I just love these old grizzlies. Between the classic lines and their green glass, then add their shootability,hard not to love!  One day I hope to find one like this one you have here.

The quiet factor of this bow is off the charts. That is key if I am going to really like a bow.

The 62" Grizzlies are phenomenal bows and as you state very quiet.  Congrats on a great bow!
