Traditional Archery Help .

[rj1974]

I rediscovered a few bows while looking for something else . I used to shoot these all the time when I was a kid but haven't touched them in years . One is a 1953 Bear Grizzly recurve and the other is a 1960s Ben Pearson Falcon Sovereign . What are these things going for these days ? I didnt get any pics of the Pearson yet I need to recharge the camera lol . Here are the pics of the Bear it also has 7R5712 58" 46# written on it .

There is a fiberglass long bow down there with them that I can not find any markings on .

Thanks for the help guys .

RJ check out acherytalk.com and archeryhistory.com $50 and up on the bear as for the B.P.? Let me know if you need strings for them may be able to whip some up.

Thanks for the tip Gordon . More then likely I'm going to sell them , but if I decide to keep them Ill get back to you on the strings . I don't even know what size they need anymore .

Your Grizzly is a 1967 model.

1953 is the patent date only.

Now you know damn well that you are gonna get them re-strung, play with them for a few days, then throw them back in the corner next to the hutch(where they currently haven't moved for a while), and let them collect dust cause it's too much trouble to play with them since they don't have a trigger. And you know i'm gonna laugh at you for all that until you hit me.

Hmmm.... let's just save you the trouble of me laughing at you and you hitting me. I'll just take the bows off your hand for you.

Funny i was going to suggest that since each one of those only has a realistic value of... ummm $5 bucks each... yea.. thats the ticket.. $5 bucks... I'll be a nice guy and give ya 20 for em....

See what a nice guy I am?

The bridge is not the problem , you run faster then I do . And on top of that I won't have any help at work if I hurt you .
