Depends on the condition. A 70's bow you can expect $125-$175 usually. Market is weird right now though and money is tight.

If it doesn't involve food, Biggie is rarely serious.    :biglaugh:

Those little bows are popular on the big auction site. Maybe classifieds too................I'd say vermonster has the right price range.

Paul...sure I'm serious!
But you shouldn't be....Vermonster has a good average. You never know though, ifsomebody really wants one, it's worth allot more as they are getting more rare.

Vermonster, I could use that little bow to get something to eat  :-)

Draw weight seems to be one of the BIG factors.  Many bowhunters today don't feel 45 pounds is enough for hunting or rather, they feel it is enough, but they want to shoot more.

I've seen one Bear bow of 45 pounds sell online for $150 and another identical model of 55 pounds sell for $250 or more.  Not sure if it's because there are more 45 pounders out there and the higher weight bows are more "collectable" or if it's just like I said and guys nowadays want 50+ pounds for hunting.  Maybe a little of both.

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.
