It's a 1967 Bear Grizzly, 58", 45#, Bubinga riser; the working mans recurve according to Papa Bear.   I just acquired it via the magic of internet.     I'll post more photos when it arrives next week.

Thats a sweet bow. I love the old school looking bows.  Lemme know how it shoots once you take it for a spin.

42 years young!!  That is one of the very cool things about trad bows still flinging arrows after all these years.  You kind of wonder about the stories a bow like that could tell or what it has seen.  Joe

That looks like a nice one, I still have my uncles 72' grizz. I my hunt with the old girl next year.....

You'll like it, George, looks to be in great shape, too.  I have a 67 Griz as well, 55 lb, and it is a great bow.  One of my favorite recurves.  Very nice grip, points great, very good performance.  Much better bow than the 70's model Griz, IMO.  Enjoy!

George, Nice bow i am looking at one now a tiny bit older.
It looks naked what kind of rest material are you going to use?

Sweet.

Grizzly's are a "bargin" in my opinion.


A bit of a different animal, but a 62" grizzly is on my next bow list.

Well done GD. Just in time for Christmas.

NICE George!!!!!   :thumbsup:  

I have a 47# 1967 Grizzly that I won at the JLMBH raffle a few years ago.

I used that bow to take a nice spikehorn in 2007 for the old Grizzly's 40th "birthday".

Good Luck with her George!!!!!
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!
