Hello Trad guys,
I have never had a recurve but have had an itch here lately. One of my buddies today told me he was helping an guy clean out an old storage shed this past weekend and picked up 3 older bear recurves. He says they are in good shape and he will let me have one so I am going to go and look at them tonight. Is there anything I need to look for as far as problems and damadge. I know to check the limbs for cracks and twists but that would be about as far as my trad gear experience goes. Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks guys.


Oh yea and I am left eye dominant but shoot compound right handed. (dont plan on changing). If the bows are left handed, could I shoot them left handed w/out messing up my compound r/h shooting. It might be a dumb question but I am pretty ignorant.
