Title: 2014 ST. JUDE Bow Hospital Refinsh Bow
Post by: tracker1 on March 23, 2015, 08:13:00 PM

John Rafferty donated this bow refinish for the 2014 St. Jude Auction .  John got this bow back to me a few weeks ago and I have been meaning to get some pictures posted.  This bow is a 1959 Bear Grizzly.  I'm sorry I didn't take any before pictures but this bow turned out great.  I wished I had better pictures but I just have my cell phone pictures.  John is a great guy to work with and his work is outstanding.

Burton,
John did a great job with that bow. The 1959-1962 GRIZZLY is a very underrated bow.  Congratulations on a well spent bid.

I had John do a '69 SK for my father-in-law, it came out great.  He is a super guy to work with.
Oh, and your bow looks awesome!
