I've got a '53 Grizzly that I enjoy shooting. I plan to take it out hunting next year or so.  Also have some late 50's Pearson's that need to be hunted with.

Here's my '64 Grizzly, unusual zebrawood.

That is a really nice one Phil !!!

I put my 64 on the scale 45@28 hasn't lost an ounce, now that is solid craftsmanship !!!

My oldies get at least one walk a year in the fall. Includes Bears and Brownings,all have been killers at least once since I've owned them. Just a good feeling out walking with bows almost as old as I am. May be slower now but still have the desire to get out there.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

1962 Bear Polar with Zebrawood. The old Bear's are great shooters! Last night my daughters and I were out shooting a 1955 Kodiak and a 1959 Kodiak. I haven't put silencers on the '55 and '59 yet. The '55 is extremely quiet even without silencers. The 59 spits an arrow out like nobody's business.  One is 34#'s and the other is 35#'s. The Bear Polar with the Zebrawood is 66" and 37#'s and will hit the range shortly. I'm excited to try that as well, even though it's a 1962 and I was born in 1961.

Happy BD to you Long Stick 64!!  I had a similar bow which I gave to one of my wife's relatives as a gift around 8 or 9 years ago.  I don't know how much or if he even shoots it anymore.  It sure is a pretty bow!  Enjoy it a lot.  Caranthir

Happy Birthday.

That's a nice present. The old Grizzlys still perform, I took a Grouse with a '70 model last season.    :thumbsup:
