61 Grizzly Factory Camo
« on: August 26, 2008, 03:31:00 PM »
What can you tell me about this bow. After handling one at Denton this year. I was impressed with the grip area, SWEET !! I could of taken her home. But she had been a little molested in the past.

After seeing Rich's custom 61 camo leaves I'm hooked LOL.   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

'61 Grizzly is a good bow with a pretty good sized fan club.  They are good shooters, and do carry a bit of collectible value.  The camo models were original not as desired, but 46 years later they seem to be preferred to the regular Grizzlys.

The most important part of your hunting setup is the broadhead.  The rest is just the delivery system.

I have a 50# that I really like.  Not a speed demon by any means but shoots like the other 62 inch Grizzlies.  Smooth, quiet, and stable.

I think the 62" Grizzlies offer about the most bang for your buck in Vintage bows.  Because they say Grizzly and not Kodiak many collectors look past them.  

I turkey hunted with mine this past spring and the Camo just felt "right".  Nice bows.

It;s one thing to run across one, like you did at Denton Hill.  It's a whole 'nother program to be on a quest for one.

Good luck.   :thumbsup:
