Shaun, you should like the bow. It's not as fast as the '59 Grizz or Kodiak (not nearly as much early string weight) but it's a sweetheart and handles like the good longbow it's trying to be.
Since we're all looking at Polars, does anyone know how many different limb profiles were used in the '59-60 Polars? It seems to me there were at least two distinct profiles (based on the three I've had in my hands), but was curious what the real serious Bear folks have found out.
Now everyone stop paying attention to Polars!! You're driving the prices up and I'm broke!! :D
