Got my traditional bow!
 

I got a beautiful 60's or 70's green future wood Bear Kodiak Mag on eBay! She looks sweet! I love these older Bear recurves! Will post pics soon. Now to whip up some 2016 arrows with 5 inch LW feather! Add the Snuffer 125's and I'll be good to go for October season here in Central NY!

It brings be 'back' some 35 yrs ago when I first held a recurve and starting shooting at paper pie plates on bales of hay at age 14! All instinctively! Man THAT was fun! Simple, uncluttered and just plain fun!

congrats.

LOL. Thats how I learned. When I was about 7 I got a red fiberglass bow at Best and some arrows at the S and H Green stamps store. I taught myself how to shoot it by aiming at a paper plate with a red dot drawn in the middle. My target was on a bail of hay.

Pictures you can't go saying you have a new bow and not produce at least 1 picture of it:)

Failure to do so will lead to the public burning of your man card:D

RE: Got my traditional bow!
 

THAT'S IT!

RE: Got my traditional bow!
 

I found the same Bow at a yard sale 2 yeas ago for $5. Had Chad make me a new string for it, green and yellow. Nice find for you!!! Good Luck with your new Bow even without a Man Card:D!!!

Thanks. Now if I could just SELL or TRADE my Champion Mustang compound bow pkg!

RE: Got my traditional bow!
 

my cousins owwn that bow and ive shot it!

nice bow for sure!

RE: Got my traditional bow!
 

Ya think it'd be worth $200 with all the fixins' too! Thus far no bites on at with the auction STARTING at $200 now! Thats a shame too b/c it IS such a nice bow and SO new! See it at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190235082 932&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=009

I'd even trade it for a near-mint 45# Kodiak Hunter RH Recurve!

RE: Got my traditional bow!
 

Hey Scoobiedoo I also shoot a Champion Bow (Stinger} Its a shame that Champion went out of bizz. I'm starting to feel some kind of strange vibe here:D

Me too!Ya think the bow was cursed or something! It's a pretty sad thing when you can't take a $400 rig and sell or trade it for $200! I have a bud who has been shooting a Martin Firecat for the last 20 yrs and hasn't replaced anyting on it but cables and the string! Surely Champion is of at least the same quality! It sure wasn't a cheap bow that I can say! Always shot well for me! Too bad I'm 'into' Traditional now...

RE: Got my traditional bow!
 

I think maybe becuase Champion went out of buisness might be part of the problem. They are a solid bow,I had my since 1999 and have no desire to replace it. I have been shooting my Trad gear almost full time and will hunt with it 99% of the time in PA archery season. I'm going on a Bowhunt to South Dakota the first week of November and I think I will dust of the Champion for that hunt though. I might need to make a 30 or 40 yard shot out there and thats not going to happen with the recurve! Oh, I think Parker picked up Champion's stock. Maybe you could tell people that they can still get parts for them to help the sale.
