Title: Goin back to a Bear
Post by: longbowman on August 08, 2012, 02:18:00 PM
I've been wondering the past few years shooting things with my longbows and have decided to go back to my roots and get me another Bear T.D.  I found a wood handled one with new 70# limbs and I can't wait!  How many Bear T.D. shooters are out there?  Let's see some pics!

I have 4 of them -- 3 set up for hunting right now and one ready for restoring. And I think they are great bows, especially with Rose Oak limbs. Just got in the house after shooting a greenstripe with Rose Oak limbs -- 51# at 29" and FAST.
Here is the greenstripe.

Big Ed - how bout a review on that 64" kodiak when you get it, I've always wanted a SK and have been checking them out.  I love the green glass one.

I went back to my recurve roots about 3 months ago after 28 years of longbows. I shoot several different bows and went for the 60" SK. It has everything I need, smooth draw, good speed, handles heavy arrows,and is very accurate in my hands,when I do everything right. I'm glad I made the switch.My plans are to try the takedown in the spring so I'm reading this thread with that in mind.
