Is this really a '66 Grizzly?

I bought this factory camo Grizzly last week and thought that even I could date this one. According to the serial number it’s a ’66. I started having doubts when I was reading through the Zebra Wood Grizzly thread and saw the camo ’64 that Rich posted pictures of and thought that it looked a lot like mine. I started looking up pictures of ’66 Grizzlies. I couldn't find any very good pictures , but the ones that I saw didn't llook like mine. I’m wondering if this is actually a ‘66.
Can one of you please tell me what year this bow is?
Thanks,
Brian

bctgrad- I'd bet a paycheck that it is a '66 Griz. The woods changed from '65 to '66- Bubinga in '66 and '67. The design of the bow didn't change until '68 when the reflex was toned down and it was a 66" bow for a couple years.I like these bows although the '68 and later models are probably better shooters. I just love these lines. Grant

Thanks for the replies and the picture, reddogge. I just didn't think it looked right according to the other pictures that I saw - especialy the coin and tips. I'm glad you guys are here to ask and help someone like me.
Thanks,
Brian
