lpcjon2, Vintage ? I guess it's all relative to your age. I see you were born in 1969. I bought my first recuvre [Browning Nomad] in 1968. Maybe that makes me vintage...lol!!! Oh yea the Nomad....was 37$ brand new.

My wife shot this with the first arrow she ever let fly at an animal.  It is a 19?? Bear Panda.  Orange glass on the belly and tan on the back.

Keep them coming.I plan to use some old Bear for hunting this year.I missed 2 wild boar in the winter with my green stripe TD,damn.

I killed this doe 2 years ago with a buddy's early '70s AMF Wing Archery Swift Wing. It's 48 lbs. & she dropped on the spot after a spine shot (once in a great while the luck I get is good).

This is a buck I shot this past season with my 1968 Howatt Monterey. I used it all season and shot 3 more does with it as well. A lot of MoJo in that old bow and one sweet shooter. 62" and 49#@28".

How about a 1960 +or- Howatt Hunter I used (unsuccessfully) last season.  Might give it a run at elk this year as well as mule deer.

I have 50# 1973 Super Kodiak that will see some woods time this year.  I have some really nice bows on the rack, but this thing impresses me every time I shoot it.  I shoot the old olive colored Gamegetters in 1916 with green Bear Razorheads.

Joe Skipp,
That Browning Cobra is one sweet looking bow!  Nice job on the turkey!

Hatrick
Nice buck!  That Maryland country behind you sure looks pretty!

I know this is an older thread, but it is a cool thread and I needed to share. This buck fell to my 55lb Super Kodiak. The bow and I are both 1969 models. Real special deer.

Here is a picture of Brent Bassi and his BQII bear.  He was using a 1969 (I think) Grizzly, Bear arrows with Razorheads and an old Bear quiver.
