Jay St. Charles had 4 bows stolen from his shop in Western WA on or about April 15. Stolen were:
1. an original '59 Bear Kodiak, 46# with Fred Bear signature
2. a new stock 60# Pacific Yew Classic Longbow
3. a Kramer Longbow named "Modine" with Lyle Kier's name on it
4. an Osage Bow Jay had made for his uncle Mal.
Obviously, Jay would appreciate any help in the recovery of these bows.
Man people suck, hope they turn up and he gets them back
What the heck is wrong with people these days :dunno: I hope they find the bows and who ever took them. Sorry to hear that this happened.

That sucks, I hope they find them and him and hang him.
Every collector is a friend of Jay and the St. Charles family.
The thief will find it hard to move any of these bows without being caught.
Yes,everyone should keep an eye out for these bows.The St. Charles family are a friend to everyone in this community. Any help we can give would be the right thing to do. Hope this ends well and he gets the bows back.
Man, that stinks. I will keep a look out over here.
Don't forget to check local pawn shops.
:( that makes me sick to my stomach that someone would do such a thing! My prayers that they return to the rightful owner
I resort to my standard response, "Damn a thief!"
I have no sympathy or good feelings towards THOSE WHO STEAL. I hope they are caught and that the bows are returned.
Pitiful! Hope the bows find their way back home.
Awful.
he who steals will kill,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,gut shoot im when found.
To bad he didn't have cameras in the shop.. JERKS!!!
Praying for the best outcome possible.
I hope Jay has filed a police report and has some pictures of the bows and watches the various classifieds.
That's a shame, I'm sorry to hear it. As long as there are people, there will be people like that. I hope Mr. St. Charles gets his bows back, and whoever stole them gets what they deserve too.

Let's keep this one to the top, so the word gets out there.
Doesn't sound like a random crime, but more specific... a thief who knows archery and the value of said bows, perhaps someone who had been there recently? Sadly, odds are they will get sold cheap for drug money.
Check those Craigslist and auction sites, and let's help Jay get back his bows.

I went into an All Craigslist Search site, and typed in Kramer Longbow.
It showed a hit in Seattle :eek: - but that ended up being the ad warning of the bows that were stolen.
People in the area should definitely keep an eye on local pawnshops.
Just wrong!
Boy is that really sad. The thief, I bet doesn't even know how special those bows are.
Sorry to hear, hoping for a happy ending for Jay.
