Had a 5 DM bow that my Grandmother bought me. Was on the way to school and had know idea what they are talking in the radio about the bay of pigs. Early in the morning, same season as know , falling leaves gave a premonition of coming winter.
(deutsche mark, @ this time 1$ - 4,20DM)

I was 11 and carrying a solid fiberglas Golden Fox (45#) by Bear on my trapline. Only bow I could afford at the time. Killed my first deer with that bow in '65. Have a '62 Grizzly and '62 Polar now and simply love the grips on them. Wish I could have afforded them then.

I was 12 and shooting a Yellow Bear Fiberglass recurve RH/LH and starting to figure out I was a left eye dominate RH kid .Picked up some awesome RH 62 Kodiak's that are treasured by a few of the guys listed above. I did get this lefty from the Al Reader collection. Posts: 1211 | From: Michigan | Registered: Mar 2008

Awesome!! Love the 59-62's but finding a good one is a hard thing to do. Maybe one of these day's. Very nice collection!
