I just recived a bear grizzly recurve in a trade and was wondering if someone could help me figure out about how old it is it has greyling michigan printed on it but the bear emblem on the riser is NOT inset in the bow it is raised

post the serial number, if it starts with a K and has a raised emblem it is 70s then from there you need to post the color of the stripe if it has one to find out what date

Hi,
Bear Bows are easily to know the period who was made.... medallion, serial number, lenght, glass color and wood are the revealing things...
Please post S/N,lenght and colour of front/back glass..
Carlo from Italy

matt's bow is green & a graishbrown dark brown glass front & back #kl92640

Early 70's, '72 or '73.

Hi,
If (I remember well) the Bear coin is flushing deep in riser wood are before 1972.... if not after....

I'm thinking it's later than 71 if it's green future wood

I have a green and black futurewood  grizzly with the raised coin I believe it is 73 or 74.
BTW:all bears are hard to beat!!!!IMO
