I have to post this question hear because you can tell by my name I'd be run out of the other sight if they knew. I was wondering what the oldest bow any of you use to hunt with is. The mother of a good friend of mine was having an estate auction and I bought my firends 1973 Bear Alaskan that was in storage in a good, dry environment since 1977. While I'm a traditional hunter at heart, I'm a deer hunter first and foremost. I couldn't help but sight it in and I shot a beautiful 8 pt. with it in late October. It pulls 60# and I shot straight through the buck with 2215's & Bear Razorheads. It was kinda fun using it. Any way I wondered if I was the only one using a relic to hunt with.
