A friend picked up a Bear Polar 38# for me at a sale for $10.00. Just want to see what I got. Might only be fire wood, I hope not!!

Lots of different shapes on the Polar as the years roll by. I have two 1963s, which look like this:

No pics, but my wife is still shooting her 1962 Polar and she has been for several years.  They are very nice bows.

What length did you get?  My wife's is 66 inches and very smooth to draw.  It is marked 30lb @ 28.  She draws 31, (Yes really) and it is 36 at her draw.  I am sure you already know, but use dacron for the string on these.

I got this '59 Polar from our classifieds a little while ago. A real beauty, and a classic. 64", 48#.
